House is doing well.
Hugh Laurie is one of my favorite comic actors, I've enjoyed his work for a long time, even the british jeeves and wooster stuff.
But one of the keys to his appeal is his great voice and in House he puts on this nasal fake voice that is like chalk screetching on a blackboard to me, I can't take it.

I'm sure you all were dying to know that. :)

I didn't even know it was a finale ... it sure didnt seem like anything but another episode.

NBC really mucked this one up ... took a good show and screwed it sideways. Too bad, and they wonder why there ratings are so godawful. For a show to open to over 8 in ratings and drop this far is awful.

That inflated rating is due to it's Apprentice lead in for the first episode. I don't think the drop was as drastic when comparing. The second episode (first in post Scrubs timeslot) to now. It's still not good though.

You have to lead in to a new show like that. It should have stayed behind aprentice. It was doomed on Tuesday at 930 ... who stays up that late to watch a comedy ... plus its competition ... horrid (barely 5.0) lead in. It was doomed before it ever started.

That's a moot point, comedies have been hits at 9:30 for years (even today, look at Two and a Half Men). However, having Scrubs as a lead-in for The Office was not a good idea. Scrubs is probably not strong enough to anchor an hour. I think NBC should've swapped Scrubs with Will & Grace, honestly. It wouldn't have been that great (given how fast Joey and Will & Grace are sinking), but it might've been better.

NBC really needs a strong slate of comedies to rebuild their slate. Not one of their four sitcoms is a hit, which is not good news.
