Sign of a good actor. Like the guy who played Anton Chigurh.

What I like is that Chi McBride had mostly-if not exclusively-played good guys before this. This role was like Denzel in “Training Day” or Harrison Ford in “What Lies Beneath.”

Knew him as a villain first in this and Cradle 2 the grave.

It's not to hard to play an unlikeable a-hole.

@@RC-ld3cn but to do it in such a way that you can almost admire him and his malevolence is

It's the American dream

in the same breath he says ''healthcare is a business im going to run it like one''

Yup.

trying to run a hospital like a company isn't a bad thing, it's just usually an impossible thing since most are trying to makey money to stay working, and help people some who often can't pay. Companies trying to stay in business don't do such things. The only way a hospital could work like a company would be pay-up-front and anyone who can't pay can't get treated. In a country with poor people, lower wage people, immigrants. What if the country ran hospitals none of those people would be allowed in one for treatment, they would have to stick to clinics or local "healers". That is the type of hospital Vogler wants, but will never be able to get. They would have to be state run and paid for. Firefighters used to work like that, you had to pay to be able to have them put out your house fire. If you didnt pay, they didn't save you or your house if a fire happened.

He's also one of best doctors in the hospital, I mean, the man is basically House with less external mental issues

@@magoshighlands4074 THIS! I always felt like people underestimated Wilson. He is a genius. The difference between him and House is that Wilson is not bragging about his knowledge. Wilson was ALWAYS my fav character.

It's more than that. Vogler just proved that he only wants a witch hunt to make them fall in line. By doing so he forced all the board members to face that Vogler had no respect for their profession or experience -- basically they had to stand against Vogler or admit they they would have to sacrifice their ethics and morals to become his YES men while still living with a sword above their heads everyday.

@@RetroGamingSweden and that Wilson follows things by the book. He just like doing harmless pranks with House.

@@3DSDF He does what he should. No more. No less. And that is what makes him the perfect physician.

I didn't find out he was British until the show ended. My jaw about hit the floor when I heard him speak.

I mean, he is technically "English".

Yeah he's bri'ish, innit!?

@@saroushen An Englishman is technically British.

I read this in a Hugh Laurie voice.

Exactly cuddy has said multiple times that they only have a department of diagnostics because of house because people all over the world go to him

Yup. House isn't one of the best doctors I'n the country. Hes basically ranks in the world

And in S8, the hospital's rankings plummeted because they shut down their department of diagnostics lol

​@@MM-hf6om House may not always be right the first time, but he's got a perfect record of saving all of his patients

People with money think they own the world. Unfortunately, they're right. Look at the University presidents and the power of AIPAC.

You are certainly welcome to try your luck over at the DPRK and their health care. >:-) . Yes, I understand that healthcare is a BUSINESS. But either businesses get to play DOCTOR or the Governments. Paying the cost of a healthcare system is big business and requires lots of money. It isn't like car repair either. If The shell you are trapped in shucks out. Its lights out gg ez bye. At least if it is a business. We can still sue them or go after them. If it is a government running it. It is called QUALIFIED IMMUNITY. You can more easily fight a business, but you cannot FIGHT a government. If you hate corporations, stop ordering online, throw your computer, smart phone and car in the trash. Because those cnc Circuit-board machines cost more money than you will make in the next 10 years. I'd like to think America is the lesser of evil countries in this world. Still evil. But there are 96 other countries more evil than ours. and at least the free reign market places means I can get a new computer or mobile device without having to worry about being censored heavily.

Or do you understand that every first world country has universal healthcare except the U.S.? Additionally, when it comes to your qualified immunity argument, what do you think the purpose of those consent forms that you have to sign before treatment is? Or did you just think they wanted your autograph?

Though he starts to act like he’s in a TV show. Vogler: “I raised valid points about why House shouldn’t be employed anymore, so let me make myself look even worse by forcing House to fire an undeserving employee and blatantly abuse my power in front of the hospital board.

Vogler represents the whole net gaining business of running a private hospital, which is a strange ideas in many countries where the state runs the hospital. And people working at hospitals are not in the borderline spectrum they actually have empathy that drives them to work there. This is a clash of a narcissist-type boss dealing with higher ups that aren't narcissists.

Drug addict was a bit rich, Vogler knew about his health conditions and the addiction issue only really accelerated to a negative degree later on and it wasn't even the core problem in the meeting. Jumping to addict is just inflated drama and his whole character is a TV show, no CEO would be this involved in the live of a single doctor whose personality is horrible for drug ads.

You’d be surprised how many functional addicts are out there. At least in my country, Australia, we now consume more drugs than any nation in earth. We aren’t a blue collar nations anymore either. Lot so f wealthy people on opioids, cocaine, high quality speed.

@@elyastoohey6621 Yes really whenever I hear the addict argument, I can think of no logic reason for it. House saves more lives than any doctor who doesn't take any drugs proven that even though he may have an addiction he is still fully capable. Even if house gets a patient killed you can't blame it on drugs because the reality is all doctors will kill someone, obviously not intentionally but for reasons beyond their control. If House had listen more to the "non addicts" then many more would have died. It makes no logic sense that House can be blamed for anything on his addiction especially when there is a reasonable medical reason for it. Tritter was hard to listen too cause nothing he said made even the slightest of sense and was very hypocritical.

At least one. But House’s crimes shadow them all.

@@Legba85 What's the crime? lol. If House committed a crime, Vougler would just have him arrested. He'd never be a doctor again. Bingo bango bongo, problem solved. He wouldn't need the committee or anything. He'd need a phone. Oh, it's because House didn't commit a crime. I mean he did later on. Then the hospital needed him for some weird case...In the end, the hospital broke the rules, not House, lol. You could even argue the court broke the rules, but they have all kinds of rules that allow them to break the rules, so that's pointless. They literally have rules that allow them to break the rules. They'll probably somehow break those rules some day, and they'll need new rules. See what I'm saying?

Yeah, but it’s usually his team breaking and entering.

@@travisinthetrunk Exactly. Or the prescription fraud. House doing the big stuff doesn't happen all the time.

It's called 'environmental scan'.

House never limps in his dreams

I didn't catch that nice!

Yo i didn't even see it! Nice job!

Dream-- not "real".

He does have a slight limp, if you watch it again, but that's because his body is fucked up from forcing himself to limp for the show.

Money really makes people act like children

Wilson wasn't fired, just removed from the Board.

He was. Next scene is Wilson clearing his office

@Michael McDoesn't Exists Wilson was just removed from the board. He states that Vogler asked if he would rather resign from the hospital than it be known he was removed (and thus salvage his career), and he agreed. Presumably, his resignation was declared void after the board later voted to remove Vogler, and Wilson was likely put on the board again.

Vogler is a b****! Kudos to the actor playing him! He acted so good, I kinda hate him too!😆

Same!!! Have been waiting for that clip for such a long time!!

Would love a compilation of House and all the hookers he uses

Peacock isn't available in my country so I had to torrent the whole series again. It's still very easy to get. Let's keep it alive.

NO, healthcare PAYS for the drugs, research and development of procedures because of sick people. Not one company will spend billions of dollars developing a way to treat an illness or disease without a way to at least recoup the cost of development. Gone are the days of taking chickens for healthcare in larger picture. Biggest issue healthcare has is government regulations. Look a Lasik, no over burdensome regulations, just basic medical ones and it's now within most financially adept to obtain the service even if they finance it. But any idiot believe your gonna cure a disease for free, well grow up TANSTAAFL.

@@MonzaRacer healing each other should be free, not charging a bill. If the payment can't be made, it's the same as giving a death sentence.

@@MonzaRacer when healthcare is run like a business we have companies charging $400 for a shot of insulin that the company did not develop, in fact it bought a patent that was made free by the inventor so thay it'll not turn into a commodity. The idea of healthcare and by extention a human life being turned into a fucking commodity bought and sold is disgusting. Especially when there are dozens of example of entire Nation-wide SYSTEMS that still run profitable without trying to directly profit from sick and dying people. In the grand scheme of things healthy people make more money to everyone than sick and bankrupt ones.

I’m not going to staunchly take a side since I do not know enough but yeah House, while crude, does literally everything he can to save his patients regardless of cost or risks or possible lawsuits. Making a hospital a “normal business” (when there’s nothing normal about the business of saving lives of children and providing a service no one else can) and effectively killing future patients of House who no one else can help for the sake of saving money is a big facet of what’s wrong with health care. It needs to be re-examined (not necessarily switched to one extreme or the other bc for some reason everyone thinks in extremes) but no one can truthfully say that there is nothing wrong and nothing to improve in the current system

@@MonzaRacer Look up Martin Shkreli. He bought the rights to Daraprim, a drug used in AIDs and cancer treatment, and jacked the price from $13.50 a pill to $750 a pill. You can throw around cold hearted cynicism all you want, but at a certain point, privatised healthcare stops being practical and just becomes a death sentence.

The hype was real, never understood why there never came a spin-off of this series. Don't know if it still will be succesful if they try it today.

No need for spin-off Probably only one plot they can really show it - after ending in season 8, he came back to Thirteen because he promise to kill her.

@@mangaranwow2543 It'll be milking an already perfect ending imo

Oh not again! You just opened a wound that took years to heal. That would have been a fantastic name. I always thought that House’s character was interesting enough to be able to carry the show on his own after season 8, and it would have been awesome to see House not suffering as much as he did in the 8 previous seasons.

it could be houses life after all of the events of the final season. Then he goes on to be a physicist on the run

It's a business when these things cost a giant amount of money

@@DrJ-hx7wv yet in europe healthcare is cheap!! its not a business here. Everything is free and public. Because we spend less on the private sector and more in the public one. But according to american believes its communism when healthcare is free for all. and not a business. were docters get paid the minums wage and you dont get to pay for the transport to the hospital by ambulance. Hee you broke you're toe.. that is free to be fixed. In america you have to pay 1000 bucks to just repair the little man.

I thought you were able to fire anyone without cause, you just have to provide a sufficient severance package

@@xoxoamazingful I think that’s the practical reality, yeah…only they probably make the package *SO* huge that it makes employers think twice before firing an important employee.

I don't want to ruin it for you if you haven't seen the episode, so I'll just say that your statement implies termination.

@@xoxoamazingful dr James Wilson probably has a contract that gives him more rights as an employee of the hospital. If he’s wrongfully termitated he can probably win a civil suit.

Only he if can prove the vote to dismiss his was retaliatory and even then the case probably wouldnt go anywhere since it would be a board decision. Cant sue Vogler for firing him when the rest of the board thought it was a good idea.

You are correct. Welcome to America 🇺🇸

I was just thinking Vogler is a symbol. Of everything wrong with the U.S healthcare system.

It should really be part business. Because people do have careers of it. That part shouldn't be the business however

Business isn't about profit, it's about efficiency. I hate Vogler too, but he's right about one thing: He said House's department costs $50,000,000/year to treat one person a week, or whatever. That's not efficient medicine if you want to save the maximum number of lives.

@@DblOSmith well his department is also a training department. And when Vogler says $50 mil, he's referring to opportunity costs too, something House never considers relevant. The MRI machine, for example, is owned by the hospital. Does using it actually cost a lot of money? The cost of electricity is peanuts. Compare this to real costs like medication which is true money out the door. But I doubt House's department spends $50 mil on pharma. The other cost which is only mentioned briefly when House receives his 'punishment' is his backlog of file transcriptions and dictations. He's too preoccupied with diagnosing to bother with the red tape, but Cuddy makes clear that his failure to transcribe his case files is preventing her from collecting money from the insurance companies.

The bully has the big sacks of money, and they don't. They all want higher salaries and higher quality equipment to work with. Plus while they respect House's medical ability, almost none of them like him as a person. Can you blame them for pandering to Mr. Moneybags?

Except he couldn't intimidate Wilson, which goes to show the strength of Wilson's character.

Your exactly right because it’s sad how Money buys most everybody to do anything

i just think its absurd how what cuddy need it to do was point out this behavior to get rid of him

Yeah, so unrealistic! Like that would ever actually happen. Oh, wait....

Look at it like a contract; clauses and stipulations can be written in that determine what the money can be used for, or under what terms it might be forfeited.

Hey people with millions are often dicks.

@@andrewames247 , then the contract that Vogler signed is in investment and not a donation because an investment for example would me saying that’d I donate all my blood to the Red Cross if they gave me all their money whereas a donation for example would me giving away my blood to a medical center that isn’t the Red Cross and expecting nothing in return for the generous acts of donation I did that day, so yes Vogler is more of an investor than a donator.

@@andrewames247 If that were the case, as a company as large as a hospital I'd be extremely hesitant to sign that contract. Just saying that it's something they don't explain so it's assumed or left open to interpretation. One of the VERY few issues I have with this show. I've watched the entire series multiple times and love it every time I watch it.

I don't know what the terms of the donation would be but, speaking as a lawyer, in general a donation or gift can be withdrawn at any time unless the recipient has "substantially relied" on it, so I guess it's a question add to how much or how the hospital has used that money since it was provided.

I mean if he already donated the full amount (or even half the amount) but he was acting like this to that extreme, yeah tell him to get bent. Generally people keep on the good side of donors to keep the cash flow going, but if he's not a stockholder (having a legal vested interest) and the cost of the donation are the demands he's making, just take the money and "run". People can't by control of an institution just based on donations.

I swear, Cuddy makes me mad sometimes. If those parents were that dangerous, House would’ve notified the police. He’s not gonna let a baby stay under the guidance of negligible parents. They were stupid, but House could see that they do care about their baby.

@@3DSDF ui agree with you completly. when it comes to children house doesnt play around. He has taken every case that envolves a child seriously

@@erinenewton4888 Exactly. The only time he absolutely didn’t want to help a kid was the one who had swallowed a refrigerator magnet. The kid was around 7 years old, and so House immediately gave up on the boy lol.

@@3DSDF LOL OH yeah i forgot about that one.

To be fair, in real life, all healthcare providers are mandated reporters and idiocy is not a alibi for child endangerment/abuse/neglect

Same

To be fair, this IS America. He also had conditions for his donation, and to be honest it seemed more like him buying himself a big position.

No, what's scary is that fact that people like you think government involvement in the health-care industry has made it more accessible and driven the price down.
