Okay, we were wrong, turns out there's even more to the Stacey epilogue than we thought.

Gregory House is dealing with even more existential pain and patient drama in Skin Deep, House MD Season 2 Episode 13 (no surprise there).

What is slightly surprising, is this is one of the first episodes that we almost actively disliked for large parts of. This mostly comes down to the issue of a lazy patient story, which flips between controversial and shocking subjects (for the time at least), with nothing in particular to say about any of it.

But it's sandwiched by a good bit of House drama, so it's worth it in the end. So if you want to hear 2 people go in circles about why a dramatically empty episode of House MD is empty of drama, then this is the Differential Diagnosis episode for you!

As always, we hope you enjoy and of course if you want to let us know what you think, then why not drop us a message at @HouseMDCast and let us know what you think.


Differential Diagnosis-A House MD Podcast is a deep, chapter-by-chapter revisit of the groundbreaking medical drama, applying the show's own diagnostic methodology to its storytelling, characters, and cultural footprint. Each weekly episode serves as a thorough case review, dissecting a specific installment of the series long after its finale to explore what made it tick-the ethical dilemmas, the character flaws, the diagnostic puzzles, and the often-brilliant narrative medicine. The conversation naturally expands beyond a simple recap to consider broader themes, from the nature of genius and pain to the show's enduring legacy in how we view medicine and morality on television. This isn't just a nostalgic rewatch; it's a deliberate and thoughtful analysis for fans who still find layers to unpack in Gregory House's world. Join the hosts every Monday as they break down an episode, a pivotal character moment, or a unique production detail, fostering a community discussion that continues the diagnostic process. You're invited to join that conversation and share your own thoughts on the podcast and all things House MD.
