Yeah it’s pretty much just great man ego shit as well as also putting way too much importance on doctors as the sole movers within medicine by establishing House to be the smartest of all and so thereby deserving of being the asshole among assholes.

Is Rick and Morty kind of the same, the genius makes the asshole traits forgivable?

The Bojack series did the cool thing of making the character accountable for the horrible things he did. Although I’m sure you knew that.

I haven’t seen House, but R&M does spend a lot of time to showing how Rick’s jackassery makes him extremely unhappy and how he’s at his best when he drops it and acts sincere with his loved ones.

yeah I loved that series when it was like current. It’s full of terrible shit like that (eg. misogyny) though, and the episodes are very formulaic.

subtle propaganda for fetishization of the individual and some “great man” theory sprinkled in

strokes the narcissistic egos of people who view themself as similar to House

helps people in positions of power to not side with the “unwashed masses”

the more you see this shit…the more you die inside

Yeah, the clinic scenes are in most episodes and they’re almost always bashing the stupid poor people who have the gall of bothering Dr. House with their medical conditions.

This show is like 45 minutes each, with 20 episodes per season, and 8 seasons lol. How the hell do you watch all that

House was one of the last shows of old-format US TV. After the writer’s strike in 2008, US TV started adopting 13-episode seasons. Before that they were usually pretty long. It’s not a show designed to be binge watched. You’re supposed to watch one per week, with some breaks due to sports/holidays. It was also back when procedurals were all the rage.
