Antwort auf die Frage nach Houses Armband:
Viewers may also have noticed the bracelet House has been wearing on his wrist since his return from prison, wondering where it came from and why he’s always wearing it. “That’s one of those little tiny details that Hugh Laurie wanted, and he wanted something that he had made in prison—something he continues to wear. It’s up to the viewer to decide why he continues to wear it, but that was certainly a Hugh choice.”
Season finale oder series finale?
Of course the question on everyone’s mind is whether House will be back next year for a ninth season. Lingenfelter along with the rest of the House team still don’t know any more than we do. “I wish I had an answer,” she admitted.
Earlier this month FOX Entertainment President Kevin Reilly announced at the Television Critics Association meetings that a decision has yet to be made on renewal. “What Reilly said at TCA is pretty much where things are. There are so many variables involved in answering that question, and there’s still a lot that we have to see.” Some of it has to do with how other shows perform. “So we’re just moving forward to make the best finale that we can and just not thinking about that, really.”
In addition to network concerns, there is, of course the fact that Hugh Laurie’s contract is up for renewal. According to Lingenfelter, “the two most important entities are Shore and Laurie and whether they have interest, and I have no idea where their heads are right now. But all I do know is that, you know, they love making the show.”
When I talked to writer/executive producers Garrett Lerner and Russel Friend last May about planning for the series eventual end, they told me that deciding on a ninth season was something that hopefully would be one of the first orders of business at the start of season eight. I wondered what kind of a timeframe the creative team needed to really wrap it up—if indeed this is the final season—and give the series a decent send off.
Acknowledging that it’s a bit challenging writing for the end of the season not knowing whether it will be the last, Lingenfelter shared that “it’s also a little scary because we’re taking some chances in this finale.”
Lingenfelter believes that the finale they’re working on could make a good series finale. “It would take some adjustments,” she said, “but, you know, I think it’s being very smartly done where it’s not going to be, like, they’re going to catch us at the last minute with our pants down if they say there’s not going to be a season nine. I think no matter what, the finale for this season, whether it’s the series finale or just the season finale, will be satisfying to the fans, one way or another.”
