I have watched each episode and each series of this show and thoroughly enjoyed each. Bur ultimately this show is a failure.

One preview of this show claimed that Dr. House was a brilliant diagnostician who single-handledly solved the most difficult medical cases and save countless lives.

My impression of the series in anything but.

Sure there were enormously complex and obscure medical cases solved but these more often came down to a process of elimination, mostly involving House's staff, rather than himself.. And often blind , and often hopelessly contrived, luck.

House came across to me as someone who should have been fired and descended into a drug addled obscurity, long before this actually occurred in the series.

Yet he is somehow made into a hero. A typical failure of this genre.

I grew up watching and loving this series when it aired in the 1980's. It was a great series with a who's who cast of Australian actors and performers.

As a product of its time there was probably little thought given to diversity. Going through the list of probably over a thousand acting credits it is hard to find a non-white and non-anglo/european actor or indeed character.

From my memories of watching this show I can't remember any aboriginal actors or characters either. There probably were some bit-parts.

Friends has often been criticised for its lack of diversity but this Australian production ranks alongside and not in a positive way.

I just saw this movie on late night Television. I didn't intend to watch it right through as there was another movie on another channel starting a little bit later, that I wanted to watch. So I was really just killing time (unintended pun). But it completely drew me in despite the strange incongruity of the plot.

I saw early on that the three metaphoric characters , Love, Death and Time were reflections of the supressed pain and/or life circumstances of the three business partners and that each of these three would be profoundly affected by those reflections and would come to face their own fears.

I did not see the ending coming at all.

This was the second time that a Will Smith movie made me cry. The other was Seven Pounds which I immediately rewatched.

All the performances were brilliant.

I can't wait to watch this movie again, and again, and again.
