LILYInDespair

Anyone giving this anything below an 8 is pretty much lying to themselves...Trust me when I say the finally will probably be amazing. I'm not the type of person to spend an hour writing a review because I do not have the time for that, and I think a simple rating is enough to gratify your need for a review, but I will tell you that all the negativity in the reviews are those people that like to come up with annoying stuff whenever they feel like being annoying for their own satisfaction on the net. Because it's easier than doing it out there face to face...

Go ahead and start watching! You are most likely gonna like it!

You see the rating. You know the show is good and you liked it so far. You want and end fitting to House. And it is. It fills the character's development to a twist that will finally give the character rest (no spoilers intended in that sentence, just trying to say it will give the character a means to an end for his development and the show's end will make sense for everyone).

Now this is for the negative reviews this episode has, despite the overall high rating. Let me explain why that is: People want a grandiose finale of epic proportions that could fill stories for centuries to come. They want an epic prose that will be grandiose on every scale and they get disappointed when they get a twist that is something much more real and heartfelt than that. House's ending is for the thinking mind of the viewer and the thinking mind of the character. It brings them both peace of mind. People expect either a epic victory or a really sad tragedy, and when they get neither and instead get something entirely different (and ingenious), they don't understand why it is like it is and complain. It's like they didn't watch 8 seasons before. It's like the missed the entire being of existence that is House. So please do not listen to those people. They have an incompletely developed emotional intelligence, they are still stuck in the middle of their intellectual growth and therefore cannot accept an end like that one. It looks as if it is too small of a stage, when it's actually as large as life itself.

Please watch the show.

I cannot explain it easily. I was waiting for this moment for a long time. I over sold it to myself without knowing the plot or the quality. I assumed it was going to be great since it was named 'Fade to Black'. Only great things are named 'Fade to Black' is what i told myself. After watching episode 125 I was ecstatic for it. And then halfway through I was nearly ready to be disappointed. It seemed just like a normal episode. Right until the last 30 minutes. Then the cogs of the movie started working together. Everything was an amazing blend of many of the character's interactions to the plot itself and why it was devised like it was. I can't say much without spoiling it, so I am just going to say watch it after 125 and be amazed (pay close attention to detail, otherwise it will seem normal to you too).
