Line 372:
== House '''is''' Hawkeye from [[MASH]]. ==
Think about it. Hawkeye is snarky, clever, has blue eyes, and has almost no respect for authority; the same goes for House. So... as soon as Hawkeye got back to the States, he used a [[Fountain of Youth]], changed his name, and took a job at PPTH.
* Not so fast. [[MASH]] happened during the Korean War - [[M*A*S*H (television)/WMG|the 1970s zone of the Korean War,]] but still, the Korean War. Even given how long [[MASH]] ran, Hawkeye is getting out no later than 1960 in normal time, and possibly much earlier. ''[[House (TV series)|House]]'' is set in (near) modern times, and Dr. House is 48 going on 49. If Hawkeye became House ''via'' [[Fountain of Youth]], he'd still have to relive much of his childhood, teenage years, college, and med school all over again... This in no way discredits the general theory. To be as jaded as House takes time.
== Foreman was trying to hurt or kill Chase in "House Divided" ==
Line 976:
== The dates of Wilson's first marriage in "Lockdown" are ''not'' a [[Series Continuity Error]]; they are an attempt to dodge health-care reform ==
We finally got a date for [[Year Zero]] to ensure that the writers would not have to deal with the effects of the new health-care bill (now law) until they are clear. This pushes some aspects of this show at least [[Twenty Minutes Into the Future]] (phones in 2000 in [[Real Life]] were still more brick-like than not, for instance), but even the average Internet-vocal viewer is more likely to notice recent social discrepancies than distant ones (see [[M*A*S*H (television)/WMG|the '70s zone theory]] in [[MASH]]) and [[CSI/WMG|the tech in]] [[CSI: Miami]].
* Discredited. Wilson's hard dates weren't a [[Series Continuity Error]], but the relative continuity has been adjusted.
