:acab-2: :officer-down:
Even though it’s formulaic i kinda like it
My favorite episode of House is the one where he turns to the camera and says “I’m House” then dances on the roof of a house while blasting 90s house music from a boombox
“Misanthropic edgy genius is better than the normies around him” wore out its welcome for me around the time House became popular.
THEN Rick and Morty happened. :disgost:
eh he’s shown to be human and putting up an act time and time again, which is more depth than most of those characters have.
But I get what you mean.
he’s shown to be human
He’s shown to be an almost superhuman genius while also normalizing the idea of being an asshole.
which is more depth than most of those characters have
Compared to what characters? House types are kind of standard now in fiction.
“Misanthropic edgy genius is better than the normies around him” Is why I don’t enjoy watching anime because 1 out of 5 MCs are like that
Agreed. And the “slowly they start to tolerate the presence of the lesser ones around him especially if they’re hot” thing in a lot of anime is horrid. :pathetic:
And somehow the the hot popular girl falls for him despite him having almost 0 charisma during his first impression
scandal acknowledged for joss whedon but this was basically me with buffy way back when
they’re the vampire cops and thats way cooler than the cops
I’ve been watching through house for the last few months, and yeah I love the show. So formulaic but it means I don’t have to pay 100% attention. Me and my SO both love it, highly recommend
Essentially why police procedurals are sp popular. And honestly a lot of episodic tv is similar. One of the weaknesses of streaming giants is its all 8-12 hour plots you need to actively pay attention to. They need some tightly written stuff that is still good when you’re only half paying attention!!
