      The best part of watching old episodes of House is my surgeon wife arguing with the TV: "That's the anaesthetists job! Why is there even a neurologist in the room??"

      Yes when we watched The Good Doctor it was much the same: "Why is a first year surgery resident doing that???'

          You should check out @MarkHoofnagle’s hilarious live Tweeting of episodes of @ResidentFOX a couple of years ago.

          There used to be a blog called Polite Dissent where episodes of House and various comic books were reviewed for their medical content. I just spent 1/2 hour trying to find the bookmark of the dead website - and getting distracted - just to make sure I didn't imagine it existed.

          I remember Polite Dissent. Its medical reviews of House episodes were great.
