Your TV is lying to you
Oct. 7th, 2009 01:29 pmI haven't watched House at all this season so I haven't seen the storyline in question but the overall message was pretty clear:
--Your TV is Lying to You
So, while i'm babysitting this patient, stopping him from picking off all of his dressings with continual reorintation and redirection, what plays in the background? That new medical show, Three Rivers.
Gah. I didn't pay attention to the whole thing. I didn't have to. What i heard was enough. The part where someone who doesn't have insurance (and isn't even an American?) needs a transplant. The doctor smugly tells some secondary character that, "You'll find a way..." implying that somewhere there's a loophole big enough to drive that truck through. I'm sure by the end of the episode it happened -- someone reached up their rectum, and found a quarter of a million dollars that they didn't know was there to fund the operation.
