House M.D. (TV Series) Fall from Grace (2011) User Reviews

Twist and turns

The ending with the patient was an unexpected one. You literally have to pick your jaw up off the floor.

House and Dominika are cute together despite the circumstances. One of the better episodes of this season.

😳

I know a lot of people didn't like the Cuddy and House ship, but I actually did.

I don't know why writers think they have to jerk characters back and forth to keep our interest.

Anyway, the case just some interest because for once, it wasn't scardosis or a cancer (rolling my eyes right now).

The whole Amber or whatever her name is attraction to a homeless guy was annoyingly naive. Again, me with the rolling eyes.

Anyway, as a true crime afficionado, that ending really perked me up!

House went totally toddler during this episode, and actually went through with marrying a woman who actually seemed like a really nice person who could have fallen in love with House.

Anyway, the surprise ending really made me go back and think about those little bone fragments found in the patient's stomach and question the whole vegetarian thing. 😳

Oh and a lesson: When someone tells you they're an awful person, believe them!

9/10

Oh my god. I really didn't expect the ending of the episode about the patient. It really is eerie. But the doctors did their job. House's situation seems fake, I hope Cuddy does something soon.

An ironic title

With Cuddy dumping House pretty much out of nowhere the writers can finally let go again and enjoy his brutally juvenile side - and boy they do. What's happening for most of the episode is House annoying the crap out of everyone to unseen ends (including the viewers I might assume, at least I couldn't stand watching it). Cuddy is looking the other way, Wilson appears for fruitless rants, and the rest of the team apparently doesn't care. Imagine a plot centered on a 10 year old going berserk with no one restraining him. When did that ever become interesting?

I could hardly believe everyone showed up to his fake wedding putting a good face on things - the correct behavior would have been to not appear at all I'd assume. I guess the writers didn't think they could keep the show interesting with Cuddy and House establishing a lasting relationship, but so far I found him struggling to become a better partner more interesting than the regression to an extreme version of his former self. I really don't like where this is going.

I couldn't really care about the medical case either, the conclusion however in the last seconds was unexpected.

In my opinion season 7 has been the weakest so far. They returned to the standard formula, the personal stuff (apart from House & Cuddy) has been kept to a minimum and the temporary replacement for Thirteen in form of Martha Masters is simply unbearable. I understand that having need for a temporary character on the team means they'd have to create one the viewers wouldn't get too attached to, but a nerdy version of Cameron is something I didn't expect I'd have to put up with for a whole season.

Former Joan of Arcadia fans will appreciate it.

Seeing Amber Tamblyn with her former co-star, and that unexpected twist at the end, made this episode superior to most this season. But that's about the only real appeal. The rest is just House being a cartoon character, doing stupid things, and acting like a man child. With everyone being worried and trying to decipher his cry for help of the week. At least he's good at his job, mostly...
