Description
The team treats a famous blogger, but finds her difficult to treat when she insists on discussing all procedures and doctors on her blog. Meanwhile, House and Wilson learn secrets about each other and go speed dating along with Chase. An avid blogger experiences sudden bruising and bleeding; Wilson and House discover secrets about each other.
Notes
(B+) This was a pretty good and humorous episode. The speed dating scene was priceless house. I love how he flipped the switch on that so-called smart woman that he ran into during the speed dating session.
It set up, perfectly, the larger mystery of the episode. The mystery was why was House reading that book of sermons. Turns out his biological father wrote it. House was interested, as Wilson points out, because he was searching for another mind like his, an equal. His father apparently does not meet those standards.
The side story with Chase was also fun and amusing. Chase examines his own good looks and his connections to other people. He also seems to be making a connection with Thirteen. Perhaps they will have a fling?
The patient, medical mystery, was also quite decent.
And I almost forgot about Wilson having a starring role in a porno. That was great. I loved that interaction between House and Wilson. That was great. This was a really quality episode. It wasn't perfect but there was a lot going on and still felt very balanced and narratively strong.

HOUSE: "5 to 9"
Original Air Date
February 8, 2010
Description
Witness a day in the life of Dr. Lisa Cuddy.
Notes
(C) "5 to 9," a look into the life of Cuddy was not as fully realized as "Wilson," a similar venture exploring the life of Wilson, but it was still fun if you are a fan of the show.
This episode just was not that sharp. The central story line with Cuddy bargaining with an insurance company was OK, but not great. The point of this episode was to highlight all of the different things that Cuddy has to deal with on a daily basis, but it was so frenetic that it was hard to connect to any of the plots. Also, House was seemingly tame in this episode.
I wonder if they will continue this trend with other characters of the show, Foreman, Chase, Thirteen? That would be fun.

HOUSE: "Moving the Chains"
Original Air Date

Description
Foreman’s brother pays a surprise visit.
Notes
(B) House uses his diabolical manipulative abilities to be nice -- helping the Foreman brothers reconnect. Meanwhile Lucas terrorizes House and Wilson in their new condo that they stole out form under Cuddy.
House indicates that he won't retaliate? Really? I think that might change. I would like to see House go to war with Lucas. That would be epic.
Overall, this episode was pretty good, it continues Season Six's path to focus more and more on the main characters and less and less on the patients.

HOUSE: "Remorse"
Original Air Date
January 25, 2010
Description
The team takes on the case of Valerie, an attractive female executive experiencing random episodes of excruciating pain. House agrees to take the case based on Valerie’s looks, and while treating her, the men on the team are charmed by Valerie’s beauty and personality, with Thirteen looking beyond the superficial to try to discover a link to her illness. Meanwhile, House uncharacteristically attempts to alleviate his conscience by reaching out to a former medical school colleague he wronged.
Notes
(B-) On the face of it having a new patient that is a sociopath sounds like a lot of fun. It is always fun to have patients that test and challenge House's philosophies. The episode, however, wasn't very exciting. The sociopath was excellent but the rest of the show was just so-so.
The side stories about House and an old college associate, Foreman and Thirteen making-up and House and Cuddy arguing about a photo that House defaced were not particularly sharp.
I have to say I would really like something to happen with Cuddy and Lucas. I, like seemingly everybody else, hate this relationship. If their relationship persists it would be nice if they would give House a new love interest or love distraction. What's Cameron up to? Just kidding. I doubt that would work.
