DDXtra - The Turkish House MD Adaptation aka Hekimoglu

Author: Differential Diagnosis March 29, 2020 Duration: 41:31

Hekimoglu is the recent Turkish adaptation of House MD and to our surprise each episode came at a whopping 2 hour runtime.

We braved the 2 hour pilot episode, which was very similar beat for beat to the original House MD pilot and now we've come together to discuss the Hekimoglu pilot and explore what it got right and the additional things that it got wrong.

We have an obvious disclaimer that we are viewing this adaptation as English people and there may be several aspects to the Hekimoglu House MD adaptation that we may have missed due to cultural differences e.t.c.

We hope you enjoy the episode and as always if you have thoughts about Hekimoglu, House MD or any of the other international adaptations - then get in touch with us on Twitter at @HouseMDCast.


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.
