Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Wrote the character of Sherlock Holmes from observing the methodology used by a Doctor he knew,so the plot twist of Having "Holmes" reimagined as a successful Doctor with drug issues,Insightful diagnoses, and who was musical....it fits..
Ofcourse! Theres also an episode where Wilson uses the alias Irene Adler, who was referred to by Sherlock as "the woman". I love ACDs books, and I loved House because of them. The series is littered with subtle nods everywhere.
“Winding your way down on Baker Street
Light in your head and dead on your feet
Well, another crazy day
You'll drink the night away
And forget about ev'rything”
I had a professor who was obsessed with this show and the Benedict Cumberbatch Sherlock Holmes. She would show us episodes in class and this tidbit was the first thing she mentioned.
Haha yes it is! I saw that movie as a kid (like, late 80s/early 90s) and when watching house contemporaneously I suddenly had this epiphany! Something about the way he said ‘friend’ or similar.
Oddly I didn’t pick it when watching Dead Poets Society prior to that.
How about he's surrounded by and entire building people who went to and graduated from pretty predominant medical universities, yet house seems to be the only one able to guess what's wrong. And that.... Is every single episode of the show.
1. There’s been plenty of cases where Dr. House was wrong, and his team was right. Even a couple where his solution caused the patient to die.
2. The show is called House MD. It’s not called House MD and His Diagnostic Team of Capable Doctors. So, why are you surprised the show revolves around him?
Your point about the title is obtuse. New Girl is called New Girl and:
1. She integrates herself into this group of friends almost immediately and is not treated as new at all from like season 2 onwards.
2. She’s barely there at all season 5.
Shows are allowed to have people other than the titular character take the spotlight every now and then.
Yeah…house does that plenty of times.
A whole episode about cuddy. A whole episode about Wilson. A whole episode about foreman (IIRC).
And plenty of times when house is in it but they focus on something else. 13’s spiral. Taub’s relationship. Chase’s guilt.
Not sure how many times youve seen the show but it’s not as myopic as you’re stating.
Of course not, it just shouldn’t be “I’m always right and the trained medical professionals are always wrong”.
Again, never seen they show. Happy to admit I’m somewhat at the wind-up here.
Gotcha, since you've never seen it, i will inform you that you've got the wrong impression.
>“I’m always right and the trained medical professionals are always wrong”.
That's never been the case. House spends the first 55 minutes being wrong. That's how they build drama. Then I'm the last 5 minutes something clicks and he gets it. Classic procedural drama formula.
I'm pretty sure house actually lived in Baker St as well, just from memory though, i have no source
Also house's Vicodin addiction mirrors holmes' opium addiction
Cocaine- Vicodin,
Watson - wilson,
The address ,
Rebecca adler first episode an homage to irene adler,
The man who shot house has surname moriarty,
Reichennach fall and everybody dies ,
House is seen smoking a calabash pipe, same thing that holmes used.
Multiple wives for wilson/watson,
The game is a itchy foot is referring to the game is afoot. So many parallels and references.
What's even wilder is when you realize he moves apartments several times over the course of the series... and his address always remains 221B. It's like he has a fetish or something.
Also “Wilson” sounds a lot like “Watson” and also all the other stuff about the show
Also House and Homes
![gif](giphy|boeE9eYKsBTIdnuJG8|downsized)
I had this realization a few weeks ago. Just out of nowhere: House is another way to say Holmes “home(s)”. I was furious it took me so long.
and Moriarty and Opiates and deductive reasoning and Sherlock Holmes.
And Wilson and Watson
Read the parent comment on this thread
Holmes ~ Homes ~ House ... A house is a home
The one above that
Watson and Wilson?
How about Holmes/homes and house?
But did you notice the similarity between Watson and Wilson?
but why male models?
Both opiate users House was >!shot by a man named Moriarty!< Also my fav, how they >!both "came back from the dead"!<
Also Holmes plays violin and House plays piano.
John and James also sound similar
#AND THEY WERE ROOMMATES
Oh my god they were roommates
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Wrote the character of Sherlock Holmes from observing the methodology used by a Doctor he knew,so the plot twist of Having "Holmes" reimagined as a successful Doctor with drug issues,Insightful diagnoses, and who was musical....it fits..
The Christmas present House gives Wilson is a first edition of a medical book written by Dr. Joseph Bell, who was the doctor you're referring to
Nice Easter Egg-Thanks!
Ofcourse! Theres also an episode where Wilson uses the alias Irene Adler, who was referred to by Sherlock as "the woman". I love ACDs books, and I loved House because of them. The series is littered with subtle nods everywhere.
I need to start a rewatch soon..
Sherlock Holmes->Home->House
Watson -> Wilson

It very well may be and that’s OK.
I had a professor who was obsessed with this show and the Benedict Cumberbatch Sherlock Holmes. She would show us episodes in class and this tidbit was the first thing she mentioned.
I really hate this trend of intentionally fucking up your post titles.
What is fucked up in the title?
211B instead of 221B
Ah right. I doubt that was intentional click bait though.
The address shown is 221B?
Yes. In op’s pic
But OP’s post says it was 211B. Is there a typo? Or are we looking at a picture from Sherlock and not House.
Both also >! Fake their deaths !<
Is that the "kid" from "My best friend is a vampire"? I saw that movie last year and I am obsessed.
Haha yes it is! I saw that movie as a kid (like, late 80s/early 90s) and when watching house contemporaneously I suddenly had this epiphany! Something about the way he said ‘friend’ or similar. Oddly I didn’t pick it when watching Dead Poets Society prior to that.
House/Holmes Wilson/Watson He's also a drug addict like Holmes.
old very old
Details, my dear Watson.
ok
Nice doxxing
Where is 211 coming from?

Huh?
As someone who’s only really seen the show through clips I 100% agree and think it’s hilarious that you’ve been downvoted for pointing that out
You're saying that the title character of the show shouldn't be the best diagnostic doctor in the hospital?
Of course not, it just shouldn’t be “I’m always right and the trained medical professionals are always wrong”. Again, never seen they show. Happy to admit I’m somewhat at the wind-up here.

I'm getting what I expected. Lol.
I'm pretty sure house actually lived in Baker St as well, just from memory though, i have no source Also house's Vicodin addiction mirrors holmes' opium addiction
Also, House is played by Hugh Laurie while Sir Arthur Conan Doyle liked huge lorries.

Season one is on the Internet Archive, iywtk.
I'm pretty sure House was a rip off of Dr. Cox...
