All Washed Up...And Don't Forget Ship Wrecked...Has Anyone Seen The GOOD Dr. Wilson?

Do you ever watch an episode of one of your favorite TV shows, and one of your favorite characters, one your thought you knew oh so well, says something, does something so damning to your prophetic hero or heroine? Damned if I did not just see the first episode if season five of House. I am in shock, it is fight or flight, I want to strangle Wilson’s character right now. I can’t give away details for the die hards that have not seen it yet, however, when you see it, you will be caught breathless. Every characteristic of him, the fiber of his being is rocked in his clash of the Titans performance in the last three minutes of the episode. Never have I seen Robert Sean Leonard in the cowardice role since Dead Poets Society. Never have I seen him in a self preserving state, but then who has seen Robert Sean Leonard in anything since Dead Poets Society, unless they caught the awkward glance on the street corner with Dixie cup in hand begging for the change to go grab fish and chips when his Broadway wash up shows were whisked away to London to “Less than admirable reviews” but what do I know I am but a humble House M.D. advocate, who accepted that Wilson was in fact a main stay of science and good that allowed Princeton Plains-Burrow Hospital to function. And now? How do we go on? Well, after knowing the washing of the first 3 Mrs. Wilsons, and their hefty alimony settlements, what was he thinking that this was little more than a premature divorce that had gone a little awry? But no, he takes this opportunity to exit stage left, and “back on the dole matey!” I wonder how long it will be before we see another Robert Sean Leonard production on the off shoot of Broadway starving with thread bare costumes and lipstick worn stage maidens.
