I personally enjoy House a lot. The fact it has a formula in it can be a bit obnoxious at times, especially when they're trying to force it. Although Seasons 1-4 are really solid. Season 5 and 6 are still pretty good, after that.. well let's say you gotta be a fan to stick to it.

Its protagonist makes it different, and especially the earlier seasons have episodes that put a nice spin to the general formula. Also the stories are just overall well-written with characters we care about. After season 4-5 it starts to become really forced.
EDIT: Also, Hugh Laurie and Robert Sean Leonard are just so good together. That alone is a reason to watch this show.

Really? I thought everyone hated the first season compared to the second? I liked both, haven't watched the third.
Must have heard it wrong. Almost everyone disliked S2 and almost everyone loved S1. I don't know how people feel about S3, but I loved it.

It's actually 86 minutes but ya. Most science fiction tends to have a feature-length opening episode, though, at least most of the stuff I've watched. I feel like it's usually necessary if you want to properly introduce a whole new universe. I'd rather blame it on Fox being too stubborn to air a longer episode and instead airing them out of order in a ****py timeslot, causing people to have no idea who the hell any of the characters were and what was going on. There's like four or so episodes towards the end that they never even aired at all. Fox suck.
