Thanks to Hulu (which I was aware of but had never really used*), I have now seen the season finale of House.
Two thoughts:
1. I stand by my observation that the show's final finale will probably be a child holding a snowglobe with Princeton-Plainsboro Hospital in it. (How are they going to work through what happened here? I don't see House keeping his license...)
2. "As Tears Go By" may have worked for the very ending with Wilson and House, but by golly, what an inappropriate song to play over clips of Chase and Cameron's wedding. (it may not be on any of the several lists of inappropriate wedding songs out there, but still, it seems rather too mournful for what should be a joyous occasion. (And I also observe that, as much as I like the Canon in D by Pachelbel, it's also a bit too somber for weddings in my opinion.)
(No, I don't know what songs I would have played were something somewhat less likely than an asteroid hitting the Grand Canyon happen (my planning a wedding for myself). I would think some of the bouncier bits of Mozart or perhaps that fluty bit from one of the Brandenburg Concerti would work, though I might go in another direction and try to script upbeat swing jazz pieces instead. But, as I said, somewhat less likely than an asteroid hitting the Grand Canyon and therefore something I don't need to be concerned about.)
(*My brother and sister-in-law were talking about the wonders of Hulu when they came by to visit while I was up at my parents (they must have a faster connection than I do; it took a long time to download the House episode). My brother has been going through the 80s shows he watched as a kid - The Fall Guy, the A Team, and others. I'd probably use the service more if the chair in front of my home computer was more comfortable...but then again, maybe it's good that it isn't, because I could see a person wasting an awful lot of time watching stuff. As much as I enjoyed the A Team in its first run, I probably DON'T need to see any of the episodes again...)
