You're an idiot. |

01.03.11 | How so? They have the same job and intellect except house is a bastard who hates and has contempt
towards everything just like Cox does. Though he is nowhere near as funny as Cox imo. |

01.03.11 | Not necessarily. As you see Cox actually changed a bit and has some sort of feelings while House pretty much stays the same asshole. I mean until he was on methadone for a few days lol. |

01.03.11 | House isn't supposed to be primarily funny, like Scrubs is. So comparing the humor is a retarded thing to do. |

theacademy
01.03.11 | @crowing
he doesn't seem as smart or distinguished as dr. house. he also doesn't seem as tragically flawed. pissed off characters are usually good for cheap funnies, but without much more there's no reason to watch.
also, the fact that you would have to sit through entire episodes of scrubs to enjoy the character = totally not fucking worth it. Scrubs is basically tyler perry television shows, except instead of being made for african american audiences, scrubs is made for dumb people. |
MUNGOLOID
01.03.11 | well considering how i've only watched one episode of House and almost every episode of Scrubs, that itself should give a good indication of who is better, at least to me. |
Phideaux
01.03.11 | Summary of every episode of House ever: "Oh no we can't figure out what's wrong with this guy. Good thing Dr. House can! If only he weren't so off putting and condescending :( He must have some deep-seated emotional issues. Maybe his leg is making him angry. Oh well, all is as it should be now that it's the end of the episode. Oh Wow, did you know Dr. House can play the guitar too! He's such a deep and dynamic character!"
Oh please, oh please let me win dumbest thing said on the site again. |
theacademy
01.03.11 | i don't get why people criticize house for being the same thing every episode
the show is formulaic by design. it's a ratings thing. |
omnipanzer
01.03.11 | "he doesn't seem as smart or distinguished as dr. house. he also doesn't seem as tragically flawed."
Have you ever seen Scrubs?
He is all of those things. Of course the show doesn't revolve around him and it was only 30min episodes but the fleshed out the character as best they could.
I can see people liking or disliking either. I happen to like both. |
DrEpic4181
01.03.11 | House, period. |
theacademy
01.03.11 | "He is all of those things."
from the clip that crowing provided, it said that he was head of the residents at some hospital... that's not a very prestigious job for a doctor. |
Phideaux
01.03.11 | @ academy: I don't see why that makes it a good thing. |
omnipanzer
01.03.11 | You won't get anything from a clip. his profile was created over 7 years of a series. I'm sure that
was his typical demeanor though. I can't view the clip from here. |
Phideaux
01.03.11 | @ academy: (clarification) for the formulaic by design post. |
theacademy
01.03.11 | @phid i didn't say it was a good thing, i said it wasn't something that the show hides... it's not like some startling revelation to point that out to anybody who has watched more than two episodes |
foreverendeared
01.03.11 | academy, I hate you so much right now for comparing Scrubs to the fucking piece of shit Tyler Perry shows/movies. |
Phideaux
01.03.11 | Ohh I see. I misunderstood, sorry. |
theacademy
01.03.11 | lol sorry 8(
(altho that was sort of my intention... man i hate scrubs... freshman roomate used to watch episodes full volume on fuckin saturday mornings WTFFFFFFF) |
crowing51
01.03.11 | Actually academy he is very smart and distinguished when i showed those links it was just a funny side, he is very much so more flawed then Dr.House is actually. You would just actually have to watch the show to see it all. |
Phideaux
01.03.11 | Ha ha. Scrubs is one of my favorite shows. Why don't you like it academy? |
AggravatedYeti
01.03.11 | ya scrubs is a lot more clever than you're giving it credit for Academy.
Though I'd say the biggest difference between the two characters is simple.
House is the series main character, thus he's a lot more fleshed out and furthermore a bit more bizarre as to keep viewers intrigued about his personality and history.
Cox is a lot more realistic--mostly because of the desired genre Scrubs fits into--though he is quite tragically flawed (problems with any religion, his violent upbringing, struggles with being a father-figure, issues with co-workers, et el...)
House I'd say, on paper, is the more interesting character. But Cox I've always felt more of a connection to as he seems more innately human than House.
Yet House always seems to focus on the Dr.'s struggles with not being 'part of the norm' whereas Cox is constantly trying to downplay the fact that he's a square peg fitting into a square hole as much as he'd love to believe he's a circle trying to stuff itself in. In reality he fits quite well but hates it
point is both the shows are flawed but compulsively watchable imo. |

MrLR
08.03.14 | You comparing 2 shows that in 1, is based on 1 character so, yeah obviously your going to see pretty much the same endings and behavior re-occur, but that is because scrubs is not called Dr.Cox or ''Cox'' because if it was;
1. You would see Perry watching sports center and drinking scotch at the end of every episode and moaning about how he was beaten as a child and,
2. It would probably be on an adult channel due to the name of the show, were not many people would be able to watch it, leaving House the champion.
And for the actual records, He did not copy Cox, he was based of a very intelligent, anti-social genius , Sherlock Holmes. |
