Blog #3 - House

My favorite show to watch on TV is definitely House. There are many American core values depicted on the show. One core value that is very pertinant is activity and work. Dr. House and his three interns are always at work trying to cure someone; they never stop trying to find the correct diagnosis. House and his crew often spend twenty-four straight hours working on one specific patient. This demonstrates to its audience that it's important to be persistant and it's not acceptable to slack off and not solve the problem. Another core value demonstrated in the show is humanitarianism. House and his crew always do their best to help every patient that needs help. Dr. Cameron, one of House's interns, is definitely the doctor with the most emotion and desire to help every person to her best ability. She often creates an emotional connection and is always looking out for the best interest of the patient. The last American core value depicted in the show is efficiency. House and his crew are always performing new and updated forms of diagnosis. As our society advances technologically, we are exposed to tons of innovations and improvements. The proceedures House and his interns conduct on their patients are designed to be more efficience and effective in solving the problem, which is one thing we strongly value as Americans.
