moose_mcmooseI was niether bowled over nor was I bitterly disappointed by 'Known Unknowns'.
I haven't the vocabulary to make a long and well-rounded argument about the good parts and bad parts of the episode, so here is a pathetic list.
Good Stuff
- House/Wilson as always entertaining and moving in equal parts.
- House doing a nice thing and Wilson thanking him for it. More of that please.
- Chase/Cameron worked for me in this episode. Their storyline was strong this week
- Stoned Wilson and pantless Wilson worked and will always work for me.
- The guy dressed as Lloyd Dobler at the 80s party. That was a winning costume. Shame the scene itself induced much eye-rolling
- Grape Soda. I <3 grape soda
- Nice to be reminded that Cuddy in fact HAS a child
- Simpsons reference and inclusion of Metallica!!!! FTW!
Bad Stuff
- House/Cuddy. *rolls eyes*
- The random harbour shots/scenes.... um?!?! Why the harbour?
- The scene when Lucas/Wilson/Cuddy/House all sat round the table. That was just weird and just didn't work for me.
- Uninteresting patient plotline. This is a shame becasue I always liked the patient plots to intermingle with the character plots. It's something that has been lacking recently and this episode did nothing to change that.
- Cuddy characterization seemed a little off in this episode to me.
- Bad acting courtesy of patient.
So on the whole some parts were great. I mean the entire House/Wilson arc was great to watch, even Chase/Cameron/Foreman held their own. Unfortunately my enjoyment, and thus the awesomeness of the episode, was overshadowed by the constant Huddy love mess BEING RAMMED IN MY FACE!!
Huddy = DO NOT WANT!

"This was a lakeside setting with a dock. Actually filmed at a resort up at Lake Arrowhead in California." I stand corrected. Thank you for pointing that out.
I do agree that Wilson's erratic behaviour was the most interesting aspect of the whole episode. I am curious to see how it all projects onto future episodes.
