Genius Has Side Effects

If you don’t watch HOUSE, firstly, you really should. The writing is amazing as is the entire series in general. Not many shows are able to transcend their first season success and continue on. House manages this feat effortlessly and if you watch an episode you’ll know why.

Secondly, this video probably won’t interest you in the slightest if you don’t watch House.

This is Hugh Laurie’s HOUSE Audition Tape which can be found on the DVD box set – season 1: [or… youtube…]

Awesome. I only watched this today and I had to post it. I can’t believe Hugh Laurie had to AUDITION, considering the fact that no one in the world could have played his character better, let alone at all.

How strangely nostalgic.

Blackadder series 4 – Final Scene

The Blackadder character’s also die at the end of the first and second seasons, so this series wasn’t unusual in that respect. Of course, the deaths in the earlier shows were played for laughs and had nothing like the poignancy of this great scene.

Also today:

That Book I found in the Square, I dropped it off outside the city Post-Shop.

To be perfectly honest with you, I couldn’t stand reading it. Not my style at all. The writing was too formal with so many unnecessary adjectives, I felt like I was being schooled in a lesson on fine edict rather than being engrossed in story.

Hope someone else out there likes her:
