Interesting Mention in Next Ep of House (8x9)

Asexual patient in next ep! How will they screw this up?

(Sidebar: Way before seeing this clip, I started mentally plotting out a Law & Order SVU ep for RSL to guest-star in... in which he's an asexual father whose teenaged son was date-raped by a girl. The collective muse is strong, apparently.)

RSL looked gorgeous in that clip.

If RSL knew how we were booking up his free time, he'd hate us. I've been fantasy casting him into a recurring role on The Good Wife as an appeal lawyer. He's a single dad with a little girl.

I STILL think he would have been a million times better than Matthew Broderick in the musical version of the Producers.

He would hate us, wouldn't he? I also have that half-hour comedy/drama TV series about two ex-boyfriends who co-own a design firm that I want him to be the lead in...

How they'll screw it up: since the couple is married and both identify as asexual, House will have to figure out that only one is truly asexual, while the other has a physical problem which House will cure, thus screwing up the marriage permanently. Because this is David Shore's philosophy, the relationship will have to be either destroyed or damaged.

It's very sad how right you are. : ( In fact, he'll probably prove they both are not asexual, because if you're happy in a situation that House wouldn't be happy in, that means you are WRONG and DOOMED.

If they both turn out to be not-asexual, though, they'd stay together? Unless of course this means one turns out to be straight and the other is gay?

I don't know. I'm going to watch for House and Wilson and the bet and them being idiots in their own fun-to-watch ways, and attempt to ignore the Shoreness of it all.

That's what I'm thinking too - that David Shore, via House, is determined to convince us that asexuality doesn't exist.

And don't forget the part where Wilson is made to look like an idiot for believing the patient.
