Do Your Research, People: Your Personal Canon Do you have a theory about the show that you claim for yourself as canon, and will believe until it's clearly disproven on the show? Then share it with us!
Two rules. One, only post what you really truly believe. It may be funny to say "I believe that House is a Time Lord", but it doesn't belong here (and if you truly believe it's the truth then honey, we need to talk). Two, no arguments with other posters unless their claims really truly contradict canon. "I believe that Cameron's never been married and completely made up the story about PDH" is out there, but theoretically possible. "I believe that Wilson is House's imaginary friend" has been disproven by canon unless everyone else is imagining him too.
Now follow my example:
I believe that House majored in chemistry as an undergrad.

I believe that Wilson staying in that hotel is a metaphor for him being in the closet and won't move out until he comes out.
hwshipper- 10-07-2007
I believe that House & Wilson have had a sexual relationship for the last 20 years and continue to this day (off screen during ad breaks etc).

I believe that Cuddy created the Department of Diagnostic Medicine to get House back into the game after the infarction.
(For those who are crying "But that is canon!" I answer "No, it's not.")

I believe that House is paid for a part-time schedule, and that's one of the reasons he can get away with goofing off so much -- because he's actually doing it on his own time.
I also believe House reads medical journals and writes professional articles on his own time.

Actually, I believe that House wanted to be a music major but went towards the sciences due to pressure from his father.

I believe that Rowan Chase made a call asking House to not hire his son because I don't believe House would extend a professional courtesy to anyone. Whatever Rowan wanted, House would do the opposite.
Bedawyn- 10-07-2007
I believe that House double-majored in college, and one of those majors was music and the other one of the sciences. He just never mentioned the double major to his parents and conveniently (and truthfully) reminded his father that "I'm majoring in chem/bio/premed/whatever" whenever John got suspicious about his music coursework.
I believe that House could easily support himself as a musician if he ever quit (or was forced to leave) medicine, if not quite as comfortably as he's used to living.
I believe that House is bi and that he and Stacy used to joke about inviting Wilson for a threesome, but never actually did.
I believe that House and Chase both speak Japanese.
And ditto on Cuddy and Diagnostics. There should be some way to force TPTB to take notice of such fanonly-obvious things so that they can slip them into show bibles when there isn't a very good reason not to.

I think that Cuddy only wears the low-cut tops so that House will comment on them to feed her self-esteem.
It could happen!

Actually it's the opposite, which is why I added that people may say it's canon but it's not. It's been mentioned in at least one producer's interview I know of, and I've heard that LE has said it in an interview too, so it appears that it's canon for TPTB. But it's never been said on the show, so it's not canon for viewers. Sometimes they seem fuzzy on what's made it onto the air and what hasn't, so they think we know things that we really don't. That's my long-winded explanation for wording it the way I did.

Considering that she unabashedly enjoys House's leering, I'm inclined to agree.
I believe that House really did hire Chase because his father made a phone call. To Cuddy, not to House.

I believe that Wilson was talking about House when he told Cameron that he met someone who made him feel funny... good, in Spin.

I believe that Chase's father made that phone call. To Wilson.

I love chemistry, so I like it.
I believe that mommy Chase had a mid life baby and started drinking after the death of that child.
jonne- 10-08-2007
I believe that House made up BOTH abuse stories!
Hibernia- 10-08-2007
I believe that after Wilson walked out on House in MLC, he thought better of it and helped him and cleaned him and cleaned the floor, too, while being at it.
Jouse- 10-08-2007
After discussing it with cindyloowho I realised it's not canon, so I hereby declare I believe House is still on AD's, and has been since Wilson dosed him.
I believe both House and Wilson are attracted to one another sexually.
I believe House is bi and Wilson is gay, and might be coming to terms with it nowadays *fingers crossed*
