There are a few shows we get absorbed into enough to buy the DVD sets and lose a few hours at a time. Recently House became one of them. This is mostly because we're both suckers for good character development, and House has that. It's also because as inappropriate House is at times, he makes us laugh quite a bit.
His inappropriate honesty brings me to the real head-scratcher. Is House completely amoral? He fights for his patients, he would rather do what is right (in his job) than what the hospital's rules allow, and he doesn't care what people think as long as he is doing the right thing. His motives get questioned, but he's always vouching for his patient.
Where is the fine line between doing right and being nice anyway? TV shows like House don't answer that, but they help make the question more interesting.
