More Words, Deeper Hole

There is also the chance that someone might have seen only some of it (although I think its reasonable to ignore because that's probably rare). The main missing ground appears to be for anyone who has any sort of neutral option... you simply can't tell if they are ambivalent to seeing it at all or if they simply were bored with it.

The thing about House is that last season's finalé is also the perfect ending for the entire series. I certainly can't see them ever improving on that so it's a good reason to never watch an episode again. This isn't the first time this has happened for me. It's sort of like jumping the shark, only it really isn't because I don't expect the series to have substantially changed and that next season will be at least as good as what's come before... it's only that if the series comes back from this it'll have to end in a different way and I can't conceive of that being anywhere appropriate as this ending.
