I don't watch it regularly--if my roommates have it on, I watch. I did watch much earlier on, I think S2 and S3. I think S4 was when I was in Japan.

But I did catch a lot of S6, and yeah, I agree with you, House/Wilson makes so much more sense than House/Cuddy. Apparently there's a faction on the writing staff that feels that way too, and I would also vastly prefer that to actually, you know, happen. But, like you say, no guts.

House being a total misanthrope was entertaining and different in the first few seasons, and they used that pretty effectively at least through S5, but I'd also agree that it is starting to get rather wearing--which is one reason why I think it's actually good that I don't watch regularly, and also why they've played up the supporting cast way more than they used to. The thing I find, not fascinating per se, but one reason I think it'd work, about House/Wilson or House/Wilson/Cuddy (or even House/Cuddy) is that all three of them clearly have massive issues, and together they make about 1.75-2 functional people. In an unhealthy way, they all enable each other to keep not changing their behaviour.
