Luckily,
I like House because he's a misanthrope who treats his patients as puzzles, his colleagues as incompetents and everyone else as an irritating distraction. The problems he solves are either trivial to someone with his knowledge, or ridiculously convoluted and solvable only by a combination of experimentation and inspiration. As a result, he's always either bored or stressed. Basically, I like him because - beneath his coat and stethoscope - he's an IT support guy. At last, a character who I can relate to! I know a fair few of y'all do support of one kind or another. Do you agree?
