Because I have not completely forgiven him for "One Day, One Room"

[katernater]

As a writer myself, I have to say that I'm completely in support of the writers' strike. I believe that all artists -- whether or not their medium is music, paint, or the printed word -- deserve to be recognized for their efforts and deserve to have those efforts rewarded.

That being said, I just looked at the strike list, scrolled down to the House entry, and saw that David Shore was the only writer listed. What the fuck, David Shore? How many episodes did you write last year? One? Maybe? I'm sorry. You don't need any more money. Pawn the Emmy you won for "Three Stories" if you're strapped for cash.

Okay, so David Shore is the "showrunner", who speaks for all of the writers on the set. I get that. Still. Couldn't they have picked someone a little better? I'm a Doris Egan fangirl. DORIS. CALL ME -- WE'LL FIGHT THE POWER TOGETHER.

Oh, he's probably not doing it for the money. I'm sure he's ennobled and doing it for the principle of the thing. Which is fantastic.

But if you're going to have a helmsman for a sort-of-grassroots-Rebels-of-the-Empire cause, wouldn't you want someone a little less...David Shore?

I think we need Team Doris icons. Because Doris Egan? Rules. There aren't many other ways to say it other than that. Think she'd be a good helmswoman for the cause?

Of course I do. Anyone who writes episodes involving

a. House competing with a deity
b. ROAD TRIP HOUSE

is definitely a horse I'd back.
