I can't believe this show ended after 3 seasons. It's ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT TV.
It's a special show, with amazing but subtle character development and plots.
The subtext in this show means more than the actual show.... The hidden meanings, the quick glances, the con artistry, Communication Skills and Body Language.
These actors SELL this story better than any TV show out there. I don't care what ANY review or FOX says.
This show deserves to be a serial drama that went for DECADES.
I can't rant or rave enough about the subtle complexity and brilliance in this show.
AND THE SCOPE....this show could go FOREVER.
It's so well put together that you actually BELIEVE their science and ideas. The plots make SENSE.
Look, if you can handle thinking a little bit whilst you binge your TV....this show is simply a Class Act.
They don't make them like they used to. This is Quality TV.

I find myself escaping into WAY too much TV.
I binge watch commercials.... I'm just that sort of freak.
When reviewing a show, I immerse myself in the environment, the location, the mysteries, the body language and tones of voice.
House brings together THE perfect equation - Enough character development that you fall in love with the people...But a diversity of story telling that keeps the show fresh and interesting.
I love this show so much, I've watched it from start to finish at least 4 times (this is my fifth), and each episode is as enjoyable as the last time. Such a beautiful nostalgic feeling of safety, enjoyment and peace watching this show.
It's one of those shows where even the intro music drags you back to a familiar place - interesting people living great stories, with Drama, Humour, Altruism & Justice ingrained into every episode.
It's stupid to say but they just DON'T make them like they used to. Modern TV tries to compare but I don't think it can.
I gave this show a 10/10 because it deserves a bump....it's probably a 9/10 if I'm honest and it CRAPS ALL OVER shows like Breaking Bad...
If I could get them to do it over, I'd ask for episodes that overlap more into following stories. They generally solve a case an episode one way or the other. I'd love them to extend their stories more, and find more ways to interconnect them.
Apart from that it's just BLOODY brilliant.
Sometimes Brilliance seems just EFFORTLESS.

What I love most about UK TV is the differences between USA TV.
In The UK, they have the most subtle art of acting, where a simple glance, or silent activity, delivers HALF of the story!
It's elegant and subtle....and enjoyably complicated.
Season 1 was ok, but it rapidly got better whereby season 4 and 5 were probably close to 9/10.
For me the character development was also subtle...you learnt more about the people over time, obviously, but it is done in flashbacks, giving us all the information we needed to deliver REALLY satisfying Stories.
I think the writers and acting were brilliant, despite the 7/10 I've offered here.
You will LOVE this show if you're into crime/police shows.
It's several steps above Average, and some parts are literally Brilliant.
Very good TV.
