ER is dead. Long live House


House
Sunday
Sky 1, 9pm

The one non-crime US drama Five showed has been snaffled by Sky, which will upset people not quite as much as when the Beeb lost Lost to dish'n'cablers, but enough. I say non-crime but, thinking about it, House is basically CSI: Pancreas. I'm not convinced it'll provide the Sunday night cornerstone of a Lost, 24 or even Prison Break or Fringe - it's an episodic procedural you can dip in and out of (notwithstanding last season's ongoing Doc Idol plot, where Dr House chose his new team). Still, I'm glad it's back, whatever the channel.

  1. Oh, stick with it my friend - it goes through some rough times, but we love it ('course it's on on Mondays here, which helps). Hugely looking forward to the next series' two hour opener. Laurie can do no wrong, so long as the writers remember that it's him we're interested in, not the other eedjits.
