I'd like to see House being a good friend to Wilson and vice versa. But before that, I'd like to see a rift between them explored from both sides - I see their relationship as a balance of the Apollonian and Dionysian, so House without control and Wilson without release are equally interesting to me.
I like this idea. And I love the analogy of Apollo and Dionysus, too. I'd love to watch how House and Wilson act toward each other without reason and release.
I'd like there to be a satisfactory resolution to what happened in the season 7 finale. I don't want to it to just sort of be ignored or brushed over.
I'd like House and Wilson to get back to their friendship. There were some good moments in season 7, but it just wasn't the same. I miss the moments from season 2 or season 6 when they lived together. SO GREAT.
I'd like the powers that be to remember that Chase exists. I'm biased because he's my favorite, but he really is such an interesting character, full of depth, and I want that to be shown. In the few substantial moments he was given in season 7 (the moments with Masters, the episode with Nadia, the patient with the insane memory, in the "After Hours" episode) we saw the Chase that existed before the writers decided to make him sleep with anything that moved in season 7. Jesse Spencer deserves better, which he's proven in the excellent work he's done when given the chance (Cursed, The Mistake, everything from the season 3 growth arc, Saviors, Under My Skin, Both Sides now, The Tyrant and the rest of the Dibala arc) just to name a few.
Instead of being forced to witness every moment of Taub's love life, I'd like to see more of Foreman.

I so want this too. They BOTH need to be a real friend to the other. And I assume there has to be some angst initially -- just hope it's not given a superficial treatment, then forgotten.
If the car crash was real, I want consequences.
House can return as crazy as a bedbug as long he acts like a grown-up.
I want real House/Wilson.
I want House/Wilson couples therapy so they can have an honest conversation about how they feel about each other.
I want to meet Danny, Wilson's other brother, and his parents.
I would love to see House, Wilson, and Danny living together.
I want a lot less Foreman.
I want a lot less Taub.
I want more hair on Chase's head.
I want great medical mysteries like the one's they have on OWN's Mystery Diagnosis.
And I love the idea someone mentioned about House being asked to consult on cases in other countries.
I want compelling stories and consistent, strong writing, preferably smart, too. That is all. ;)

This is so true. After all those story-arcs we were given from s3 on, I can't accept to see House and Wilson return to their simpler buddy relationship of seasons one and two. At least not any time soon.

Humor?
Clinic patients?
I have never been so excited in the anticipation of the next season than I am this time. Because I think that after the events in “Moving On” and the shaking up in the cast, the Producers and the Writers have the chance to blow fresh air in the show. If they don't screw this up, they have the chance to reinvent the show and bring it back to its old strength.
Here is my wish list for season 8:
At first they have to deal with the Fallout of the events in the last episodes of season 7.
I don't know by now if I want to see House in jail or not. But I know that House needs to get back to some kind of therapy. Preferably at Dr. Cate Milton (Mira Sorvino / episode Frozen).
If they decide to make a leap in time then I would like to have an episode in which they tell us what has happened during that time.
House could use a lawyer who helps him deal with the fallout. I would love to see Stacy again. But that could be difficult, because Sela Ward has a role on the TV show CSY NY.
My favorite candidate as the new Dean of Medicine is Cameron. I think that she has emancipated herself enough from House by now to do the job successfully.
But since Jennifer Morrison is busy at “One upon a Time” here is my top five DoM wish list: Jennifer Beals, Laura Innes, Gillian Anderson, Tim Roth and Carl Lumbly.
I don't want Wilson or Foreman as the new DoM.
The new DoM should not serve as love interest for House. I think that Barbara Barnett’s idea that he / she should be a pain therapy specialist is great. Because House needs a decent pain therapy. With that I don’t mean that he should get back to the Ibuprofen.
The new DoM should not dress herself like a slut like Cuddy has done it with her deep cleavage and way to short and tight skirts.
Since Cuddy is gone and the writers don't have to deal with her family affairs anymore, we could finally get to know and see Houses biological dad and Wilson's brother Danny. Since we have had 5 (five) episodes with Cuddy’s mother and sister, it couldn't be too much to ask for to get at least one episode with Houses biological dad and at least one episode with Wilson's brother. Seeing Diane Baker / Houses mother Blythe again would be great, too.
I would love to see Stephen Fry in the role of Houses Half-Brother and arch enemy Mycroft.
And since Wilson's Screentime has been insufficient in season 7 and as a compensation for his degradation to a Huddy Whisperer, I wish a Wilson centric episode.
House and Wilson should remain friends. Wilson should be a good friend to House and not judgmental anymore. I want to have the Hilson (b)romance back. It would be cool if the two of them would be living together again.
One episode with Dr. Nolan. Because Nolan has screwed up big time and should know about the damage he has caused as he suggested House in Baggage that a relationship with Cuddy could be the solution for his problems. Cuddy was the cause of some of Houses problems, but clearly not the solution.
More scenes with House and 13 because 13 is the one who understands House the best.
Chase and 13 should not become involved romantically.
I would like to see how Taub resolves the situation with his two pregnant women.
I would love to see House's wife Dominika again. Perhaps the greencard marriage turns into a real marriage at some point of time.
I want House, the world renowned diagnostician, back. People should respect him and don't use him as a doormat. I want to see him deep in thoughts, while working on a case.
House should get Happy within the realms of his possibilities. Steady on! That isn’t possible because „David Shore doesn't do happy.“ But then House should come to a state where he is satisfied with himself and his life.
I hope that they could get Doris Egan back for at least one episode. I would love to see another Hilson roadtrip.
One episode directed or written by Hugh Laurie.
Clinic patients, the white board, ball-y and a House / Bones crossover.
I am unsure regarding a Guest Appearance of Cuddy in season 8.
At the one side, I am afraid that the overloud Huddy - screaming will start again in the fandom. I clearly don't want that. Have had an overdose of it since the promo-photo of the episode 4.16 with House in the hospital bed and Cuddy holding his hand has been released. This overloud Huddy -screaming has almost driven me away from the fandom in season five. It has almost been impossible to talk about other things than Huddy and it has made me sad that such an intelligent multifaceted show like House M.D. has been reduced to this ship. I know a lot of people who left the fandom because of it or retreated permanently into Lurkerdom.
On the other side, I don't know if an additional episode in order to get closure between House and Cuddy is really necessary.
The show is about House and House has his closure.
If the name of the show would be “PPTH” for example and be similar to Greys Anatomy with several leading actors / actresses, I would say “Yes, of course.” immediately.
But perhaps there should be one last episode with Cuddy anyway. An episode / scenario which is similar to the one Cameron and Chase have had in the episode 6.17 Lockdown. It should be a scenario where House and Cuddy are running into each other by accident and forced to talk to each other in order to eliminate their misunderstandings of the events in “Moving On”. House should know that Cuddy has not lied to him, as she has told him that she was not dating someone. And Cuddy should know Houses point of view. They should come to a real closure. After this episode their ways should separate forever and I never want to see Cuddy on the show again. I am glad that she's finally gone. Because I can't stand her anymore since she pulled the pranks on House in the middle of season five.
I am looking forward to season 8 and after season 8 I want to have season 9!
Sorry for the long post!
Season 8 should start out with house in jail for the crash at the end of season 7. This should last about 4 or 5 episodes.
We should see more of what's going on in houses brain. I think one way to do that is with bringing back dr. Nolan.
I also want to see more thirteen. I think it is about time for her disease to start to really give her problems.
I would also like to see less of Taub and more of foreman and chase.
Something interesting should finally happen to foreman.
