5.0 out of 5 stars The Only Ending in Town June 26, 2009
By Penny J. Kroh
Amazon Verified Purchase
BOTH SIDES NOW ends Season 5 of HOUSE the only way it can--badly for House. Every time he might be happy, it doesn't happen. His Sherlockian use of drugs has finally caught up to him, since he is experiencing hallucinations. His diagnostic mind is hurting from his over-indulgence. But at least one thing is learned--he DOES want to be happy. His imaginings tell us that. He likes Lisa Cuddy: This is NOT a bad thing. My mind is already wondering where this will lead the writers in Season 6 of this groundbreaking show.

5.0 out of 5 stars House Episode 24, season 5 May 13, 2009
By David Paul
Amazon Verified Purchase
What looked like positive solutions for House's current problems turn tables. House's mental instability causes major misdiagnoses of his patients. Chase and Cameron previously caught cold-feet on an impending marriage in the last episode; thus the conclusion of their relationship is exemplified in this episode.
In recent episodes House's medical career appears to be at stake due to his diminishing mental faculties. One has to wonder if House will continue or not.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can't wait for more September 23, 2008
By Algadget
Wow! Kudo's to the writers cast and crew! House gets better and better with every season and every episode. Our whole family hopes it lasts as long as The Simpsons. We look forward to every new episode and own every season on DVD.
Thanks for hours of drama, suspense, laughter and tears.
