This show cannot be compared to E.R. which is frivolous and trite. House is more thought provoking and in-depth with the real aspect of medicine, showing that you don't just get to yell and scream out a bunch of acronyms in an E. D. and "Tadah" either save, kill or run them up to the O. R. (as is such silliness in E.R.)... I give House an 8, just due to some outrageousness such as a known opiate addicted doctor would obviously be suspended and have had to go to rehab or more likely had their license revoked (plus criminal charges as well, blah blah blah..). Also sometimes the outcome is Too Grande to be true 'YET it is a TV series so can't be all too real all the time. To compare with E.R. is just silly due to the painfully over ran series and the soap-ish nature. Well, House M.D. is just a much better and "thought provoking" series; The writers do not bore (compared to ER) with tedious who's doing who and the most OUTLANDISH soap crap to ever to be called a serious drama, I will say the first few ER years were not as bad and quite entraining.
