One reason I've never understood this theory that House, Wilson, and Cuddy are some sort of divine trinity is that neither Wilson nor Cuddy have ever had as much to do as Foreman
I don't think screentime is why Wilson and Cuddy are considered the divine trinity. I think it has more to do with their importance in House's life. At least that is the way I have always looked at it.
Sorry I know I am in the wrong thread but didn't know where to take this.
I'm guessing in the Foreman thread, but I agree with you. My original point, sdemar, is that Omar Epps is a versatile actor playing a non-versatile charactor. Screen time is not the same as being artistically challenged. This season in particular, with Boreteen out of the way, it seems to me that Omar Epps could be given something more interesting to do than be abused by House or leading the differentials. As an actor he has to bring a lot to the table to make that watchable, and sometimes it seems like he is going through the motions.
For instance, he was very funny in "Wilson," even though he had almost no screen time, and I'll bet those scenes were fun to film. In real life Epps seems to be a witty, intelligent man, and it's a pity that the writing doesn't let more of that leak into the character. Lisa Edelstein has often talked about how her feelings about her character have influenced her arc (although she wants Huddy a whole lot more than Rachel, that's obvious).
As I said, admiring Omar Epps can feel like living on a desert island.
New interview with Omar at
Rollingout.com
Omar was a guest on the George Lopez show last night. He spoke with awe and pride of his role on "House" and gracefully fielded several jokes about doing love scenes with Olivia Wilde (he said she was called "Little O" on the set and he was "Big O").
Omar ends up at # 44 in a
list of 100 most powerful black men on twitter.
(I don't even want to try and understand what it means in terms of "powerful" when LeBron, Diddy and Kanye are all listed before Obama. Sure Obama isn't actually doing his own tweets, but seriously?
Editor’s Note: Please note that while this list displays the 100 most powerful black men on Twitter, the names on this list are not ranked.
In which case, why put #s next to their names? Sort them alphabetically or by the # of followers they have or something.
Omar seems like a great guy (as opposed to Foreman), but I don't like 90% of his tweets -- I'm just not a "power of positive thinking" person.

Oh, what's he tweeting about, could you elaborate?
He goes through phases when his tweets are quotes (with the originators' names). "If you can see it, you can make it happen" type stuff.
And, surprise, he likes football.
I don't mind when he tweets about restaurants he loves. That's nice.
And don't get me wrong. I think it's very nice of him to tweet to the fans at all.
