I know that House is based on Sherlock Holmes. Also, I thought Downey's Holmes seemed a little derivative of House. Interesting. Also--a VERY good movie. I'm not joking about that.

I remember how you told me that House's character is based on Holmes -- Holmes sounds like Homes which is sort of like House and they live in the same apartment on the same street and Wilson is House's Watson, etc. etc. <br /><br />But what I found interesting about the new Holmes is that I think the character in the movie was at least influenced by the character on House. This Holmes is way cooler than the Holmes I remember from the books I read as a kid. <br /><br />Like House!Christian Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13572926578322777883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597252.post-66199117843212804882010-01-06T13:06:37.392-07:002010-01-06T13:06:37.392-07:00I don't want to be a know it all killjoy, but ...I don't want to be a know it all killjoy, but the creator of House based the character on Sherlock Holmes. I think I saw that in the DVD extras from Season one? Anyway, I've never gotten into Sherlock Holmes, but I do love House, so maybe I will indulge the Husband and go see the movie.Torihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04477566379613234988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597252.post-39007981351321528002010-01-06T07:33:58.380-07:002010-01-06T07:33:58.380-07:00This sounds like a "chicken and the egg"...This sounds like a "chicken and the egg" dilemma. Holmes, the character, came first, so House could be said to be like Holmes...thus this new Holmes is like House who is like the old Holmes.

For some reason they pictured him as a reserved gentleman. I told them from what I had read, he was an arrogant prick...but VERY VERY smart. And then I said, "Like House!" And they said, "YEAH!"Erinhttp://www.littlekitegirl.comnoreply@blogger.com
