House M.D.: Holding On (2012)
Season 8, Episode 21
7/10
Major medical Error That Even I Know
3 February 2023
Warning: Spoilers
House drugs poor Wilson and inserts a needle in his arm to administer a milky liquid, which I assumed was propofol and immediately said uh-oh.

Why?

Because this quick and short acting anesthesic stops your breathing. You need an anesthesiologist to keep you alive! It's the drug that killed Micheal Jackson because his idiot doctor didn't realize he would need help to continue breathing. Wilson would have woken up dead! How could they miss that? I'm no doctor and even I know that! My gastro guy uses this to put me under for colonoscopies and endoscopies, I'm out in 3 seconds and the anesthesiologist makes sure I continue to breathe!

Anyway, the show is ending for me and I'll have to find something else to binge. Enjoyed it while it lasted. Some interesting cases some not so much. Some annoying characters and some interesting ones.

My favorites were House, even though he's an awful person, Wilson, and Cuddy and the original team during the first 3-4 seasons, even the second team with Taub and 13 was better than I thought it would be. The last team with the two women - ugh!

My favorite storylines was the whole team thing, House with Cuddy, House and Wilson pranking each other, and House picking his new team.
