A series finale prediction

vyperddAnd no, this is not in regards to Supernatural, but one of my other favourite shows, House. Yes I do watch shows other than Supernatural. :-)
The last few eps of House, certainly since they started the 'Wilson cancer arc' have really blown me away. Unlike a lot of my RL friends who gave up/lost interest when Cuddy left, I've kept watching and kept loving the show. My favourite character has always been House himself, so as long as he stayed I was hanging on for the ride. And I ship House/Wilson in the same way I shipped Alan/Denny on Boston Legal as two guys who had more than just a deep and abiding friendship that is definitely love, even if there is no sex.
Okay onto 821 'Holding On' : Finally, House is going to really experience the consequences of his actions in possibly the most heartbreaking way. His thoughtless 'prank' of disposing of the tickets down the toilet is going to cost him the last few months he will have with his best friend. I was surprised that it was the vandelism that screwed things up. Had thought for sure that almost strangling his patient to death would have been the cause of his parole being provoked.
Even after 8 years, House still manages to screw with us all. I was totally believing that he really had filled the cafeteria with all of Wilson's surviving patients. I had tears rolling down my face the whole time. Should have know better. He did, after all, hire an actor to pretend to be the son Wilson never knew he had. House was just so convincing and sincere this time round that I believed he had changed and was doing something incredibly nice for his friend rather than trying to manipulate him into agreeing to more chemo.
So my completely, totally unspoiled prediction for the series finale is that House is going to go AWOL and more than likely take Wilson along for the ride, perhaps even drugging him like he did in this ep to give hm chemo. I think House would be ok with serving the remaining 6 months (and any extra for running) but only after Wilson is gone.
Am also wondering if Wilson may decide to do the chemo in the hope of living more than 6 months, thereby giving House the time to serve his sentence and then spend the final weeks/ months Wilson has left together.
Am so looking forward to next week's series finale House even at the same time I'm really sad that it will be the LAST EPISODE EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!. I just know it's going to be both awesome and heartbreaking and I'll be laughing and crying and cheering House on and screaming and cursing at him too, because that's what House has been like for me for the past 8 years.
And then I'm going to do a full 8 season re-watch because even though the show will be over, I know I won't be ready to say goodbye for a long, long time.
PS: PLEASE, PLEASE DO NOT POST ANY HOUSE SPOILERS IN COMMENTS. I really want to see the series finale as unspoiled as possible.

Date: 2012-05-15 09:14 am (UTC)Actually, the big bang I'm finishing right now was kicked off in my head by 'House Divided' and 'Both Sides Now'. I've wanted to do a crossover fic with the two series, but didn't think anyone in the SPN comms would know the House characters.
Somehow the upcoming end didn't really hit me until the intro of the cancer arc and especially with Chase's departure. I'm just glad there's another season of Supernatural because l couldn't take losing both series the same year ;)

Date: 2012-05-15 11:01 am (UTC)But I have watched and loved House from the very first ep of season 1. Pretty much all the med-talk goes way over my head but it's characters and their relationships and personalities and journey that has kept me watching. House really is the sort of a**hole that should be completely unlovable and unwatchable but Hugh Laurie is so brilliant in the role that I just fell in love with him very early on.
I am so looking forward to all the BB being posted and yours esp sounds really intriguing. A lot of SPN fans that I know also watch House, so the crossover potential is certainly there.
It hit me over the head at the beginning of SPN season 5 when Dean got x-rays of his and Sam's rib sigils that Cas gave them and I imagined what House would make of them.
I'm actually more eager for House this week simply because it it the series finale. Honestly don't know how I'm going to cope when SPN finally ends. I already do continual re-watches of at least an ep a day.

Date: 2012-05-15 01:05 pm (UTC)I believed it and it made me cry, too. One of my friends is watching right now and is texting me her responses. She wasn't taken in!
I love Alan and Denny also. Until the last three weeks of House, they were my gold standard for male friendships on television.
I'm so hoping House can keep the quality up for one more week!

Date: 2012-05-15 01:22 pm (UTC)I'm sure it can. I expect it to go even further and be even more brilliant as if they are saving the absolute best for last and are planning to go out with a bang, not a whimper or Jump The Shark moment.
Alan/Denny were magnificent. I really looked forward to their episode ending chats on the balcony drinking whiskey and smoking their cigars. And the series ending with them getting married was pure awesomeness, something I doubt any show will ever replicate.
Great.... now you've got me wanting to do a Boston Legal re-watch. Which I will do after House, which I started tonight. Just couldn't wait til next week. Am up to ep 3 of S1 and falling in love with House all over again.
