Foreman wanted to be House, but Chase didn’t which is why he was destined to be House because house didn’t want to become himself either. They just wanted to save ppl
The one who really wanted to be House is Tobb. He always wanted to be a great doctor, a genius and be considered as such. And unlike the others, he was very little or less outraged by House’s inhumane behavior. From the beginning, I found that he cared less about morals and ethics, his conscience works him less like House
There is a scene in one of the episodes where Chase is recovering from the stabbing where he has his classic lightbulb moment. He's walking down the hall and hands his crutches off to someone behind him, limping towards the patient's room just like house had done on multiple occasions. It was honestly the most straightforward parallel in the show.
I love how when Chase comes back (again) he goes "The prodigal son has returned!" and then hugs him, it's like some part of him was actually happy to see him, and the dumbfounded look on Chase's face when he gets hugged by House, lmao
I think Chase himself said this, but House has to come up with excuses to show he cares. When Chase was injured and dying, House visited him under the guise of trying to continue with their case. He probably did want to genuinely hug him, but he needed an excuse so he cracked that sarcastic remark. 11:20 Chase's quote on House trying to show himself to be uncaring.
Chase hated his father because his dad cared absolutely nothing about him (until it was too late). House at least gave him recognition when he did something well. And he got scolded when he fucked up. It was what Chase wanted from a father and started to imitate his new father figure.
The first time I finished House MD, reading "Robert Chase, MD" on the glass door in the end of the show was amazing. I believe every single one of us knew Chase was the one among the team. He's not House, refused to be like House, but he took every lesson from that journey and became a better doctor and person.
@@anonymousentertainment9823 I think Chase became a better doctor, I mean Chase has a lot of experience working alongside House. He learned from House and House never had someone like himself to be his mentor.
@@davidr007X I believe the whole concept of the relationship between Chase and House was that House taught him to be like him, but in many ways not like him. House was not a follower, and neither is Chase. House taught Chase to become essentially the "perfect" doctor just like House was.
It’s the same reason I believe that Nightwing( the first Robin) is the perfect successor to the title of Batman. Not because he wants to be Batman, it’s because he doesn’t. He knows how to be better
It's funny how elegantly this demonstrates how we perpetuate ourselves and those who come before us into those who come after us. Foreman becomes Cuddy, both always questioning House ethically. Cameron becomes Wilson, both always questioning House morally. Chase becomes House, both always questioning House medically. It fits.
I feel like Cameron and 13 both share the Wilson role as Cameron and 13 want to be houses friend and question morally one less then the other but begs the question where do the other three fall in Taub kutner and the one Asian girl I don't remember their name I think she's a younger version of thirteen and Cameron Young and naive but nit completely jaded and Taub is a old semi jaded chase since chase becomes the new house and kutner was likely to end up as the new foremen until he ya know
I remember a clip, but I forget the episode, where House is doing something super illegal to the point in which he even allows the other doctors to leave the room to relieve them of responsibility. Instead of leaving, however, Chase just closes the door and sticks with House.
@@bigballoftape5343 *SPOILERS* and then it is revealed that the dude is dying either way, and House actually does euthanize him. One of the most brutal episodes I can recall.
The fact that the show runners knew from the beginning that Chase would one day become House and continued to follow thru with that plan for eight years is a testament to the show's quality..
Originally it was supposted to be Kutner to become House 2.0 but actor had to leave the show so they found an excuse to get rid off the character then Chase was made in House 2.0
No they didn’t. He was the only one with character development until Kutner left and they had to reverse it to make him into House jr starting in season 6.
Foreman and Chase ended up exactly where they should - at positions that best suited their personalities. Foreman was always the conservative voice of caution. He was always preferring the more mundane safer options of what is wrong with the patient with treatments that are less dangerous and less invasive. And only when those are exhausted he would go for the rare and crazy ones. Also he is prone to dismiss certain symptoms or related information if it simplifies the diagnosis. Which makes him the ideal "Cuddy" - i.e. ideal Dean of Medicine. Someone with authority, who values House and his unorthodox methods because he knows that it brings results and is able to shield House from external harm, but who at the same time fights him teeth and nails when House pursues some overly crazy idea. His ability to put up stoically with House's various shenanigans also helps. Chase on the other hand was at the beginning House's yesman, who went along with the craziest ideas just fine. He wasn't hindered either by conservativism like Foreman nor by over the top concern for patient's well-being like Cameron (don't take me wrong, there is nothing wrong with being a compassionate doctor but in Cameron's case it hindered the search for the diagnosis, she would have been content with simply keeping the patient all cozy and safe). He learned to supress his compassion just like House did, only for different reasons, thus he seemed similarly callous. But it transpired throughout the series that this particular mix made him much better diagnostician than the other two, he solved most of the cases in comparison to all the other fellows. And once he had his "eureca moment", he pursued it as stubbornly as House.
I think the thing that makes Foreman perfect as the Dean of Medicine is that he never made the mistake of thinking that House's ideas were either crazy OR brilliant; he realized that his ideas were crazy AND brilliant. That's what makes it so that House respects him saying no enough to listen, the same way he did with Cuddy. Most people who tell House that he's crazy are doing so because they don't see what House does, so he just ignores them because he knows what needs to be done. But Foreman can go toe to toe with House and say, yes, you're right, but you're still wrong. That's a very special kind of confidence that only Foreman and Cuddy ever show. There's a reason House kept Foreman on the team even when his instinct was always to shout down every crazy idea House had, after all. Foreman had to take the long way around to get there, but in the end he really did position himself as House's equal like he always wanted, not by being the best diagnostician in the world but by learning to be the adult in the room.
Over the years we have seen Foreman always wanting be superior. Upon his return after resigning in Season 3, Chase asks him why he isn't wearing the lab coat like he used to and the rest of the team does and he has no response to give. In the lockdown episode, he tried to get something off his medical record... He always wanted to be superior. Then as Dean gets involved in a case and when Chase proposes an exam, he gets more worried about the hospital bills and Chase tells him that before he wouldn't say no to the test. Forman became Dean and basically runs to meetings, worries about hospital bills and the hospital lost a good doctor because Forman needs to feel superior when an administer could do the job - sure is the highest place you could have in the hospital. Chase didn't care about titles, he even return better when House was in jail, he actually learned, grew up and got what he wanted: having his own department and it's because he deserved it.
In my interpretation, Foreman always likes power. If solve cases givers more power he will solve cases. But it wasn't his real goal on the series. So (to me) it is completely understandable that Foreman became the Princeton Plainsboro Deans
House would hav never hired someone just bcoz someone told him. He might hav given him an interview bcoz his dad called but chase impressed House to get the job.
@@sharan9993 Of Course, but that's beside the point. I meant this in the context of what Trieber said to Chase that he got the spot just because his dad made the call
Thumbs up for Jesse Spencer, who played Dr. Robert Chase and then immediately played Lieutenant/Captain Matthew Casey on Chicago Fire for 10 seasons. Spencer acted on TV from 2004-2021 straight. What an effort. He also had to speak in an American accent for those 10 seasons. Impressive work
Fun fact, Spencer is actually is an American voice. But David shore brought up that chase should be Australian. Originally, chase was supposed to have an American accent.
@@adimajumdar5219 I think I switched that up by accident. It was in one of the special features. David did a commentary saying that he was supposed to use American or Australian during the pilots. It was something like that. But it shows how diverse each of the actors were/are for the show.
@@xXIn5aneClownxX he was supposed to be British, but they ended up changing it to Australian. There's a clip where the cast talk about their auditions.
@@xXIn5aneClownxX Can confirm, I'm Australian, Spencer lived over my back fence when we were both kids, once his rabbit burrowed under the fence and he came over and we caught it with him
Chase is like House without all the miseries, House tried not to let Chase becomes "House 2.0". He guides Chase to become the better "House", he see his younger self from Chase. Sometime I just feel this is more like a parent-child relation than a teacher-student relation.
Both have a strained relationship with parents, both have uncontrollable curiosity and a resilience against shame that is enviable. The build up to Chase was beautiful but I honestly didn't like the storyline of House going to prison even tho they made it work.
In film school they do tell you never to choose your characters' names randomly. House is obviously for the sherlock Holmes thing, but Chase and Foreman make a lot of sense as well. I have no idea with regard to Cameron. Was David Cameron already making damages that Americans would be aware of in the early 2000's?
In a way, the fact that House retains his cane through the show, while Chase ends up not having one, can be taken as a signal of the core difference between the two. House's history and pain has permanently marked him; it's irrecoverable, "managed" crudely through addiction and external assistance. Chase, on the other hand, gets back on two feet, but with a similar limping gait; having still suffered, also marked by that pain, but in a way that has not left him permanently disrupted as a person. I'm probably reading way too deep but I think it's a fun thought regardless.
The way I see it, 13 was House's favorite daughter, the little girl you treasure and spoil. Chase, on the other hand, was House's favorite son, the boy you rough up so that he may one day become a better man than you. Edit: Apparently this shit turned into a cringe gender shit, so I'm going to add analysis to redirect the conversation. First, look at 11:45 . This is literally that one moment when your dad loses his shit at you, not because he's a drunk abuser or anything but because he cares and he's absolutely terrified of what could happen to you. And 4:00 , when it looks like House is just lashing out at Chase, notice that he says "you've learned all you can" first, before adding the insulting part after a pause. Almost as if he realized he let his real thoughts slip and had to change his tunes to cover it up. That overall episode was Chase calling out House's bullshit and standing up for himself, proving that he was ALREADY prepared to head his own department. He just didn't get to do so until season 8 because the show needed the safety wheels of it's OG cast. And, at the end of it all, didn't Chase become an upgraded version of House? He's more reasonable, more able to function in the workplace, more capable of forming intimate relationships and adjusting his own emotions. Medical knowledge and street smarts will come with age. In all honesty, I don't like the character of House very much, I think the average kid outside of the great American bubble receives far more pain from their fathers than House and still stand by their families all the same, but the way House acted as a father(or maybe more accurately the cool whacky uncle)to Chase was just thematically beautiful. He gave Chase what he himself never had as a child.
i think house was fascinated by 13 because she was poker face 24/7 and he couldnt read her so he kept trying to figure her out. but eventually he ofcourse did as he always does and yet he still had a soft spot for her, you re right. and yeah, obviously 13 had parental issues given what her mom went through and how it fractured her teenage years etc and so did chase with his mom alcoholism and his father not being there etc. so, absolutely, both sides saw each other as the "family you choose rather than are born into" and its pretty obvious by the end of it.
It's funny how it was Foreman who was originally presented as "House Lite" by Cuddy and built up to essentially be the successor of House, only for him to end up as Cuddy Lite and Chase was the one who ended up being "genius 2.0". I'm not sure if this was an intentional red herring from the start of the show or if they made it up as they went, but it was an interesting progression to witness. p. s. I absolutely love the final interaction between House and Chase "It's been fun" "Fun?" "Seemed pithier than "we've shared a variety of situations"... " Goes to show how House-jaded Chase has become and how much more comfortable House has become around him by the end of it all.
If I had to to guess, it was mainly a response to Lisa Edelstein leaving the show. However, Foreman wanted power, and to prove that he was superior to everyone because he was embarrassed of his past. Chase wanted to get House's approval, and went down his path. Where they ended up makes sense.
Wow. Chase and House both hate their dads, but in a way House becomes a father figure to Chase. Never noticed that until this compilation, really great job here.
I always picked up on that, especially the first time House tricked them into thinking he was dying. Chase got all choked up wanting to give his daddy a hug 😁
11:45 One of the few moments of the whole series where House is both completely honest and emotionally vulnerable for some else sake. If that scene doesn't tell you how much House loves his crew nothing will.
I loved to watch House's and Chase's relationship unfold. I think, underneath it all, they always had a father-son kind of relationship, and House loved him much more than he let on - certainly more than anyone else on his team.
I think he 'loved' 13 the same way. He even admitted He was her friend, He has only called Wilson and 13 his Friends. He even fired her to make her happy and promised to be there when her Huntington's kicks in ❤
Foreman tried to control and finally learnt how to manage House, despite his measures to establish his power. Cameron tried to change House but she learnt she can't change House. Chase tried to play along House and finally learnt all things except being miserable.
The nod from house to chase at 12:42 hit like lightning. That nod was Hugh laurie nodding to Jesse Spencer thanking him for riding out the show with him until the very end.
It was at the end of one of the truly best episodes of House because the medical mystery mattered less than the interplay between Chase & the patient (Chase got involved with the patient, in fact fell in love with her) entirely the opposite of House (who avoids interacting with the patients) and between Chase & House. And yet, Chase was being very much like House...limping, using a cane, seeking to disabuse people of their delusions, about to doing something desperate, reckless and self-destructive out of a need to somehow corral the woman he loves. And House at the end there was trying to spare Chase of the very same fate he made for himself...lonely, miserable and trapped in his own cynicism and hardness.
The fact that chase did nothing but surfing for 9 months taking break from medical and surgical practice and returned after house came out in parole always intrigues me. He returned with much better clarity and no emotional baggage attached and with much better clinical and diagnostic skills. I want to know what chase did actually that days. But one thing I know is house knows what chase did
Sometimes leaving a discipline for a period makes you better when you come back, it applies to me on some video games but i assume it applies to any expertise domain
my understanding was, chase took house's advise to reassess his self. Didn't have the chance before but had one when house was sent to prison. And he knows both of them will bounce back from their life. From then on, geniuses turned from v1.0 to v2.0.
i can tell you it does not apply to any specialist Some studying and revision is mandatory Yes it can apply on stuff which requires muscle memory BUT not anything niche engineering and i can't imagine it for medicine either
A Chase M.D mini series would be cool. Keep it short, don't over stay the welcome. The biggest fan-servicey thing I'd ask for, is a House appeareance, in that maybe 13's time has come and House keeps his promise.
@@Webbman76 Even if that would be funny and amazing, i dont think it should happen. Would diminish Chase's achievement of becoming House 2.0 if he could always just consult House whenever he cant figure it out
I remember there was an episode where Foreman couldn't get a job because someone was sending letters to other hospitals (or something like that). At the end, Chase discovers that House was the one doing it, and House tells Chase "Sometimes I forget why I hired you". Great scene.
It's interesting that at 11:29 you can see that House really does care. He doesn't want anyone to end up like him, especially Chase. The fact that Chase is having trouble walking is what set it off. Brilliant writing.
Im surprised you dont have the scene of House apologizing to Chase for the stabbing while Chase is doing PT. House admits hes to blame and says "I'm sorry." And Chase just looks at him with a straight face and says "okay. anything else? im kinda busy here." Which is a total House response for that kind of emotional situation. Then the camera focuses just on Chases one hand down on the rail to make it look like a cane
The scene with Foreman and Chase on the stairway where Chase is picking Foreman apart at every angle was done remarkably similarly to how House would probably do it. The element of humor Chase used, the pace in his speech and the clean finish was an easy victory that House executes in nearly the same way.
Oh boy i love the scene at 12:40 ongoing when house and chase just secretly nod at each other, that always gives me the chills...! At this point you know house has accepted chase as his successor.
Chase shut up and listen to House. He's the only one actually learning from House. He consult House where Cameron and Foreman question and debate House. He's the only one putting himself into House mind, trying to understand his way of thinking, instead of the "I know this and I don't think you're right, Dr. House" like Foreman and Cameron often does, which is why they both in the end goes into their own way, meanwhile Chase absorb House and become the new House.
@@puffenpufferfish8539 I beg to differ. Forman became Dean of Medicine in the final season, finally becoming what he was striving to be since season one. Unlike Chase, Foreman already had the skillset House had, he was just lacking the confidence to be so even with House pushing him to do so. Foreman was already House since season 1. Chase was the only one in all of the groups who was actually House's protégé. The only one who had zero conflict on where he wanted to be. As far as Chase being like House, I wouldn't go so far to say that is so. He picked up qualities from House and combined it with who he was as a person. Chase also being the only character in the entire show who legitimately worked to better his flaws. If anything, most of the characters put up minimal effort, or nothing stuck making their characters very static throughout the show especially Foreman.
house need someone to challenge his diagnosis just like cuddy did and foreman was perfect for that.. he wasnt meant to be the next House, he was groomed to be the next Cuddy..I believe he still challenging chase when both house and cuddy are gone to keep him from going overboard like house did
House is an adaptation of Sherlock Holmes. ‘The Chase’ is what Holmes seeks, it’s the only thing that makes him happy other than drugs. Chase is the embodiment of House’s passion for medicine. A foreman watches a factory floor, and keeps the workers in check, he is House’s conscience. Idk, am i over reading?
I love how Chase started as a suck up to House, but the slowly turned into him. Even though in the beginning they said Foreman was gonna be House, they changed up the paths of both of em. Chase was my favorite House disciple.
I really wish they would've made a spin off show following Chase as the head of diagnostics after House ended. Chase might have become the new House, but he was still different enough that there was room to explore and develop his character quite a bit. Same with Foreman. Unfortunately, I think the opportunity has passed and we'll never get a show of this caliber again.
I actually realized that Chase was the only person that House gave out his hand as a sign of authentic gratitude/farewell, sort of… I mean, I’ve just finished House 2 days ago for the 2nd time I think, and I have the whole series fresh on my memory.
We've already got that. House MD is already Chase MD. By watching Chase transform into House over the course of the season. By the end he has become the new House.
A sequel called Nurse something was supposed to air which follows that nurse House annoyed in like 2 episodes and House who now supposedly lives somewhere in europe and practices clandestine medicine or something like that, but it never aired I think the writers wanted to leave House's end like this and what we all assumed to be his suicide
I love that the show has a lot of irony and poetry like chase is cardiology and got stab in the chest, Wilson cancer doctor and got cancer, foreman is a neurologist and got a neurological infection, there a lot of parallels. Also I love chase and house goodbye every house relationship is complicated so just said after 10 years working together "we share a lot of situations".
Chase is House's true protégé. He has no problems crossing lines to back House and he won't whine about everything House does unlike all the other team members. Truly House's prodigal son!
Chase with House's ball really makes it seem like the legacy has moved on and he will become just as much of a genius as House in the future when he reaches House's age.
Bit too loud yes, but it does lend it an air of melancholy that I always associated with both House and in the later years, Chase. That said, House himself would've hated it.
6:30 Cameron's so right here. By this point Chase was already making decisions like house, emotionally tiring himself, a feeling that he has a weight on his shoulders that bothered him so much that it didn't bother him anymore. Its kind of sad in a way.
They did make their own choices. Cameron doesn't... respect people's right to have good reasons for what they do. If it looks stupid on the face, it _is_ stupid. And in most cases she's right, but you can't just make people's limits go away.
The writing in this show was absolutely magnificent! I could not stand pretty boy Chase at first, then they gave the character depth and made you realize there was so much more to him. He ultimately became one of my favorite characters!
lol i like pretty boy chase from the start, for that reason only. but then i grew to respect him as an actual person and that went way beyond his looks.
@@Athena06 yeah, I definitely liked the vibes that the music gave and it’s more of a benefit than a detriment, but it’s just a bit of an audio balancing issue
There is a scene that is like a mirror when chase says to house : "anything else?" when he is doing fisio for the walk problem as a result of the stab It s like when house says to chase "anything else" after chased yelled house U could include that to make that contrast between the cold house and the cold chase Good video btw (Y)
At first I thought the music was a bit much but it really does grow on you. That ending crescendo while it pans to “Robert Chase M.D.” just makes me smile and feel all the air taken out of me at the same time
I think House fired him at 4:15 because he saw Chase was becoming more and more like him and didn’t want that for Chase because he actually cares about him and wants him to be better than he is.
"I don't hate him, I loved him till I figured out it hurts a lot less to just not care" That fucking stings, it's the exact same way I feel about my own father but i've never had it in words.
@@Brenoskywalker77 no biggie dude there are other words for protege it's not an english word so people don't use it unless it's verbalized something about the accentuation in text isn't automatic and like me I don't either, apprentice works fine.
Chase is one of the characters with more development in the whole series. It's a conflictic character at the start and it scale to an important an beloved one at the end. Curious, Chase become one better House than House (it has more human sensitive), and it is really close to his genius, not by talent, but experience that it's more value.
13:53 He looks so much like House when saying that remark, same expression when House sends that last one jab toward patient at the clinic or something like that :)
Chase being fired by House at the end of season 3 felt like a huge moment at the time. Like Foreman quits, Cameron quits, Chase is the only one House sends away. Why? Because he was the only one House thought was ready.
i love that you open it with the x-ray the leg, that's what stablish Chase out of the box thinking. that's why he's House successor. this vid is a masterpiece thank you!
Can't count the number of times I've come back and replayed this video. House MD was just too good a TV show to have ended. Thank you @Athena for the nostalgia. Wish there was a sequel/prequel to this amazing show!!
Dr. Chase in Season 3 was different gravy. He made good calls followed by great calls. In almost every case he saw something no one else did. Oooooof to have him as the next House . Destiny. 🌠
Chase grew to be one of my favorites over the seasons, started as meek and grew into a great doctor with a penchant for sticking to his guns like House, match made in heaven.
That was awesome, I loved it. It would be more awesome if they give Chase his own tv show when everyone comes back after all those years after the show ended.
as much as some would like it to happen, its best to let it go. that character had been going for years through house. making its own show would take away the feeling of achievement it got from the end of the show. plus its hard they can keep the creativity going
I'm pretty sure Jesse Spencer (Chase) had already signed a contract for Chicago Fire when House finished airing, if he hadn't signed on we probably would've gotten a spin off
Spin offs are good when the characters work by themselves, chase would have been a house 2.0 and people would have compared them , characters that are a copy of another never get popular as the original If u want spin offs that actually were creative see better call saul wich is a spin off of breaking bad
I think what few realize is that Chase became house because he didn't have in his life a father figure present and who provided him with examples of how to shape his actions and character. Even though in the end he significantly changed from House, a large part of his behavior comes from him. So much so that house speaks when he returns "The prodigal son has returned!". HAHAHA
How's missed Chase so much that he actually hugged him. He tried to play it off as another joke, but just looking at Chase's expression of surprise, you know it was genuine
I think Dr. Robert Chase has seen more character development throughout the series than any other character in the show, and yes, that includes Dr. House himself. Seeing him going from a loyal kiss ass to the actual successor to House has been one of the most enjoyable examples of development I've ever watched. Foreman was always building himself up to be a leader and he finally got that role in season 8 while Chase was being build up to replace House when he "died." And I think House had known that since Season 1. He knew it when he fired him in Season 3, he knew that when he rehired him in Season 6, and he definitely knew that when they said goodbye in Season 8. I don't think there could have been a better end for Chase's character than him taking House's office and role in the last episode of the series.
11:40 that’s gotta be the most love I’ve ever seen House give. Not only did he give Chase some solid advice but he reassured him that the stabbing wasn’t his fault. Huge moment
Chase definitely did come full-House-circle. Don't know if the producers intended the 5:56 and 15:06 moments but, so good! Great video and perspective!
I loved the "if i wanted you to be like me, i'd be urging you to make a stupid stubborn decision that will blow up your life and leave your lonely and miserable." Its my favorite in the series.
When Chase came back and was doing his surgeries and House said, “We need you,” and when you see how House looked at him. He liked that Chase came back and was counting the episode before he joined the team again.
- Doctor Chase, nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you, I’ve heard your name.
- Most people have, it’s also a verb.

From the beginning, I found that he cared less about morals and ethics, his conscience works him less like House

There is a scene in one of the episodes where Chase is recovering from the stabbing where he has his classic lightbulb moment. He's walking down the hall and hands his crutches off to someone behind him, limping towards the patient's room just like house had done on multiple occasions. It was honestly the most straightforward parallel in the show.

I think Chase himself said this, but House has to come up with excuses to show he cares. When Chase was injured and dying, House visited him under the guise of trying to continue with their case. He probably did want to genuinely hug him, but he needed an excuse so he cracked that sarcastic remark.

It definitely made my heart warm how he hugged him considering Chase hugged him once when they thought he had brain cancer.
House had realized Chase was his worthy successor
Also notable is that Chase is a prodigal son from his faith
Chase hated his father because his dad cared absolutely nothing about him (until it was too late).
House at least gave him recognition when he did something well. And he got scolded when he fucked up. It was what Chase wanted from a father and started to imitate his new father figure.

@@anonymousentertainment9823 I think Chase became a better doctor, I mean Chase has a lot of experience working alongside House. He learned from House and House never had someone like himself to be his mentor.
@@davidr007X I believe the whole concept of the relationship between Chase and House was that House taught him to be like him, but in many ways not like him. House was not a follower, and neither is Chase. House taught Chase to become essentially the "perfect" doctor just like House was.
It’s the same reason I believe that Nightwing( the first Robin) is the perfect successor to the title of Batman. Not because he wants to be Batman, it’s because he doesn’t. He knows how to be better
I'd support a sequel set around Chase running the diagnostic team. Even if it would be only for a season or two.
Maybe when he's ready to leave Chicago Fire.

It's funny how elegantly this demonstrates how we perpetuate ourselves and those who come before us into those who come after us. Foreman becomes Cuddy, both always questioning House ethically. Cameron becomes Wilson, both always questioning House morally. Chase becomes House, both always questioning House medically. It fits.
It does fit
I feel like Cameron and 13 both share the Wilson role as Cameron and 13 want to be houses friend and question morally one less then the other but begs the question where do the other three fall in Taub kutner and the one Asian girl I don't remember their name I think she's a younger version of thirteen and Cameron Young and naive but nit completely jaded and Taub is a old semi jaded chase since chase becomes the new house and kutner was likely to end up as the new foremen until he ya know

@@nem6952 House doesn't , Cameron does.
The fact that the show runners knew from the beginning that Chase would one day become House and continued to follow thru with that plan for eight years is a testament to the show's quality..
Originally it was supposted to be Kutner to become House 2.0 but actor had to leave the show so they found an excuse to get rid off the character then Chase was made in House 2.0
No they didn’t. He was the only one with character development until Kutner left and they had to reverse it to make him into House jr starting in season 6.
Foreman and Chase ended up exactly where they should - at positions that best suited their personalities.
Foreman was always the conservative voice of caution. He was always preferring the more mundane safer options of what is wrong with the patient with treatments that are less dangerous and less invasive. And only when those are exhausted he would go for the rare and crazy ones. Also he is prone to dismiss certain symptoms or related information if it simplifies the diagnosis. Which makes him the ideal "Cuddy" - i.e. ideal Dean of Medicine. Someone with authority, who values House and his unorthodox methods because he knows that it brings results and is able to shield House from external harm, but who at the same time fights him teeth and nails when House pursues some overly crazy idea. His ability to put up stoically with House's various shenanigans also helps.
Chase on the other hand was at the beginning House's yesman, who went along with the craziest ideas just fine. He wasn't hindered either by conservativism like Foreman nor by over the top concern for patient's well-being like Cameron (don't take me wrong, there is nothing wrong with being a compassionate doctor but in Cameron's case it hindered the search for the diagnosis, she would have been content with simply keeping the patient all cozy and safe). He learned to supress his compassion just like House did, only for different reasons, thus he seemed similarly callous. But it transpired throughout the series that this particular mix made him much better diagnostician than the other two, he solved most of the cases in comparison to all the other fellows. And once he had his "eureca moment", he pursued it as stubbornly as House.
I think the thing that makes Foreman perfect as the Dean of Medicine is that he never made the mistake of thinking that House's ideas were either crazy OR brilliant; he realized that his ideas were crazy AND brilliant. That's what makes it so that House respects him saying no enough to listen, the same way he did with Cuddy. Most people who tell House that he's crazy are doing so because they don't see what House does, so he just ignores them because he knows what needs to be done. But Foreman can go toe to toe with House and say, yes, you're right, but you're still wrong. That's a very special kind of confidence that only Foreman and Cuddy ever show. There's a reason House kept Foreman on the team even when his instinct was always to shout down every crazy idea House had, after all. Foreman had to take the long way around to get there, but in the end he really did position himself as House's equal like he always wanted, not by being the best diagnostician in the world but by learning to be the adult in the room.
CzechMirco what a lovely dissertation. You will make a fine literary scholar someday.
Cameron also got the part she deserved, out of the story I mean 😂
Over the years we have seen Foreman always wanting be superior. Upon his return after resigning in Season 3, Chase asks him why he isn't wearing the lab coat like he used to and the rest of the team does and he has no response to give. In the lockdown episode, he tried to get something off his medical record... He always wanted to be superior. Then as Dean gets involved in a case and when Chase proposes an exam, he gets more worried about the hospital bills and Chase tells him that before he wouldn't say no to the test. Forman became Dean and basically runs to meetings, worries about hospital bills and the hospital lost a good doctor because Forman needs to feel superior when an administer could do the job - sure is the highest place you could have in the hospital.
Chase didn't care about titles, he even return better when House was in jail, he actually learned, grew up and got what he wanted: having his own department and it's because he deserved it.
In my interpretation, Foreman always likes power. If solve cases givers more power he will solve cases. But it wasn't his real goal on the series. So (to me) it is completely understandable that Foreman became the Princeton Plainsboro Deans
Anyone else love that little smile house gave when Chase and Taub walked in for the first time since rejoining his team
I can't tell if it was some kind of sadistic glee or if he was genuinely happy to see them, but it's probably a little bit of both
8:25
Chase had the most lightbulbs among all the team members that ever worked under House.Not bad for someone who got in because of nepotism.
House would hav never hired someone just bcoz someone told him. He might hav given him an interview bcoz his dad called but chase impressed House to get the job.

Chase is like House without all the miseries, House tried not to let Chase becomes "House 2.0".
He guides Chase to become the better "House", he see his younger self from Chase. Sometime I just feel this is more like a parent-child relation than a teacher-student relation.
It was so wholesome
Both have a strained relationship with parents, both have uncontrollable curiosity and a resilience against shame that is enviable. The build up to Chase was beautiful but I honestly didn't like the storyline of House going to prison even tho they made it work.
It is a father's dream to see himself outshined by his offspring.

House: A noun. Chase: A verb
Foreman: also a noun
Cameroon: a country
@@hereiseminem 😂😂
In film school they do tell you never to choose your characters' names randomly. House is obviously for the sherlock Holmes thing, but Chase and Foreman make a lot of sense as well. I have no idea with regard to Cameron. Was David Cameron already making damages that Americans would be aware of in the early 2000's?
13: a number
In a way, the fact that House retains his cane through the show, while Chase ends up not having one, can be taken as a signal of the core difference between the two. House's history and pain has permanently marked him; it's irrecoverable, "managed" crudely through addiction and external assistance.
Chase, on the other hand, gets back on two feet, but with a similar limping gait; having still suffered, also marked by that pain, but in a way that has not left him permanently disrupted as a person.
I'm probably reading way too deep but I think it's a fun thought regardless.
It's also the idea that on an ideal world, every generation is less damaged than the one who came before it.
That's what will make him an even better doctor than house, he will build up experience like crazy, while having his mind clear of suffering and pain.
Exactly, the crutch is literal in this case. House cannot move on, Chase can.
The way I see it, 13 was House's favorite daughter, the little girl you treasure and spoil. Chase, on the other hand, was House's favorite son, the boy you rough up so that he may one day become a better man than you.
Edit: Apparently this shit turned into a cringe gender shit, so I'm going to add analysis to redirect the conversation. First, look at 11:45 . This is literally that one moment when your dad loses his shit at you, not because he's a drunk abuser or anything but because he cares and he's absolutely terrified of what could happen to you. And 4:00 , when it looks like House is just lashing out at Chase, notice that he says "you've learned all you can" first, before adding the insulting part after a pause. Almost as if he realized he let his real thoughts slip and had to change his tunes to cover it up. That overall episode was Chase calling out House's bullshit and standing up for himself, proving that he was ALREADY prepared to head his own department. He just didn't get to do so until season 8 because the show needed the safety wheels of it's OG cast.
And, at the end of it all, didn't Chase become an upgraded version of House? He's more reasonable, more able to function in the workplace, more capable of forming intimate relationships and adjusting his own emotions. Medical knowledge and street smarts will come with age. In all honesty, I don't like the character of House very much, I think the average kid outside of the great American bubble receives far more pain from their fathers than House and still stand by their families all the same, but the way House acted as a father(or maybe more accurately the cool whacky uncle)to Chase was just thematically beautiful. He gave Chase what he himself never had as a child.
Great way to put it
i think house was fascinated by 13 because she was poker face 24/7 and he couldnt read her so he kept trying to figure her out. but eventually he ofcourse did as he always does and yet he still had a soft spot for her, you re right. and yeah, obviously 13 had parental issues given what her mom went through and how it fractured her teenage years etc and so did chase with his mom alcoholism and his father not being there etc. so, absolutely, both sides saw each other as the "family you choose rather than are born into" and its pretty obvious by the end of it.
Looks like primitive patriarchal attitudes sometimes benefit women, huh?
@@rizz7604 I don't think this situation fits into a patriarchal attitude. Just a parental one.
@@Nnnmmmkkk People like this dont understand the difference.
It's funny how it was Foreman who was originally presented as "House Lite" by Cuddy and built up to essentially be the successor of House, only for him to end up as Cuddy Lite and Chase was the one who ended up being "genius 2.0". I'm not sure if this was an intentional red herring from the start of the show or if they made it up as they went, but it was an interesting progression to witness.
p. s. I absolutely love the final interaction between House and Chase
"It's been fun"
"Fun?"
"Seemed pithier than "we've shared a variety of situations"... "
Goes to show how House-jaded Chase has become and how much more comfortable House has become around him by the end of it all.

If I had to to guess, it was mainly a response to Lisa Edelstein leaving the show. However, Foreman wanted power, and to prove that he was superior to everyone because he was embarrassed of his past. Chase wanted to get House's approval, and went down his path. Where they ended up makes sense.

And Chase was usually the only one who'd smile at House's jokes.

He asked Chase to go bowling with him as a Wilson substitute! So true.
I think Chase and Thirteen were his favorites - the prodigal son and daughter, respectively. 😊
@@wobby1268 yess
@@wobby1268Yeah I was about to say. House definitely had affection for both Chase and Thirteen.
I think he 'loved' 13 the same way. He even admitted He was her friend, He has only called Wilson and 13 his Friends. He even fired her to make her happy and promised to be there when her Huntington's kicks in ❤
Foreman tried to control and finally learnt how to manage House, despite his measures to establish his power.
Cameron tried to change House but she learnt she can't change House.
Chase tried to play along House and finally learnt all things except being miserable.
The nod from house to chase at 12:42 hit like lightning.
That nod was Hugh laurie nodding to Jesse Spencer thanking him for riding out the show with him until the very end.
It was at the end of one of the truly best episodes of House because the medical mystery mattered less than the interplay between Chase & the patient (Chase got involved with the patient, in fact fell in love with her) entirely the opposite of House (who avoids interacting with the patients) and between Chase & House. And yet, Chase was being very much like House...limping, using a cane, seeking to disabuse people of their delusions, about to doing something desperate, reckless and self-destructive out of a need to somehow corral the woman he loves. And House at the end there was trying to spare Chase of the very same fate he made for himself...lonely, miserable and trapped in his own cynicism and hardness.
The fact that chase did nothing but surfing for 9 months taking break from medical and surgical practice and returned after house came out in parole always intrigues me. He returned with much better clarity and no emotional baggage attached and with much better clinical and diagnostic skills.
I want to know what chase did actually that days.
But one thing I know is house knows what chase did
Sometimes leaving a discipline for a period makes you better when you come back, it applies to me on some video games but i assume it applies to any expertise domain
my understanding was, chase took house's advise to reassess his self. Didn't have the chance before but had one when house was sent to prison. And he knows both of them will bounce back from their life. From then on, geniuses turned from v1.0 to v2.0.
i can tell you it does not apply to any specialist
Some studying and revision is mandatory
Yes it can apply on stuff which requires muscle memory BUT not anything niche engineering and i can't imagine it for medicine either
A Chase M.D mini series would be cool. Keep it short, don't over stay the welcome. The biggest fan-servicey thing I'd ask for, is a House appeareance, in that maybe 13's time has come and House keeps his promise.
Maybe Chase is working at a new hospital where House is the Janitor under a new name.

I remember there was an episode where Foreman couldn't get a job because someone was sending letters to other hospitals (or something like that). At the end, Chase discovers that House was the one doing it, and House tells Chase "Sometimes I forget why I hired you". Great scene.
I remembered. It's a scene from the episode "the jerk".
What was the context? Positive or negative inflection of that?
It's interesting that at 11:29 you can see that House really does care. He doesn't want anyone to end up like him, especially Chase. The fact that Chase is having trouble walking is what set it off. Brilliant writing.
Im surprised you dont have the scene of House apologizing to Chase for the stabbing while Chase is doing PT. House admits hes to blame and says "I'm sorry." And Chase just looks at him with a straight face and says "okay. anything else? im kinda busy here." Which is a total House response for that kind of emotional situation. Then the camera focuses just on Chases one hand down on the rail to make it look like a cane
yep i really hesitated to include this one indeed...
Which episode?
@@Athena06why so?
This is hands down, the best compilation. Felt like a complete journey
Right in my heart.
F
The scene with Foreman and Chase on the stairway where Chase is picking Foreman apart at every angle was done remarkably similarly to how House would probably do it. The element of humor Chase used, the pace in his speech and the clean finish was an easy victory that House executes in nearly the same way.
Oh boy i love the scene at 12:40 ongoing when house and chase just secretly nod at each other, that always gives me the chills...! At this point you know house has accepted chase as his successor.
I just noticed that after Chase succeeds House, he isn't wearing a lab coat either, which was a very House thing to do as every other doctor wore one.
"You reassess your life when you make a mistake, you didnt, you just got stabbed" lol flashback to House getting shot
Chase shut up and listen to House. He's the only one actually learning from House. He consult House where Cameron and Foreman question and debate House. He's the only one putting himself into House mind, trying to understand his way of thinking, instead of the "I know this and I don't think you're right, Dr. House" like Foreman and Cameron often does, which is why they both in the end goes into their own way, meanwhile Chase absorb House and become the new House.
uh forman went through the same change as chase and even took his spot as house in the shows final season
@@puffenpufferfish8539 I beg to differ. Forman became Dean of Medicine in the final season, finally becoming what he was striving to be since season one. Unlike Chase, Foreman already had the skillset House had, he was just lacking the confidence to be so even with House pushing him to do so. Foreman was already House since season 1.
Chase was the only one in all of the groups who was actually House's protégé. The only one who had zero conflict on where he wanted to be. As far as Chase being like House, I wouldn't go so far to say that is so. He picked up qualities from House and combined it with who he was as a person. Chase also being the only character in the entire show who legitimately worked to better his flaws. If anything, most of the characters put up minimal effort, or nothing stuck making their characters very static throughout the show especially Foreman.
They all learn from House
house need someone to challenge his diagnosis just like cuddy did and foreman was perfect for that..
he wasnt meant to be the next House, he was groomed to be the next Cuddy..I believe he still challenging chase when both house and cuddy are gone to keep him from going overboard like house did
@@MisterZuluu Forman never was house. House has always been on another level than Forman and way more daring.
House is an adaptation of Sherlock Holmes. ‘The Chase’ is what Holmes seeks, it’s the only thing that makes him happy other than drugs. Chase is the embodiment of House’s passion for medicine. A foreman watches a factory floor, and keeps the workers in check, he is House’s conscience.
Idk, am i over reading?
Nope, I think that’s a perfect explanation
Oooh. Very interesting
Makes perfect sense. Foreman makes sure house isn't crazy, and Chase helps out and drives towards the answers.
Yes absolutely haha
wilson was house's conscience throughout the show. dont read too much on the names.
I love how Chase started as a suck up to House, but the slowly turned into him. Even though in the beginning they said Foreman was gonna be House, they changed up the paths of both of em. Chase was my favorite House disciple.
Foreman wanted to be House.
Chase wanted to be able to do what House did.
@@JoshSweetvaleyou’re absolutely right. and that difference was what solidified chase being 2.0
I really wish they would've made a spin off show following Chase as the head of diagnostics after House ended. Chase might have become the new House, but he was still different enough that there was room to explore and develop his character quite a bit. Same with Foreman. Unfortunately, I think the opportunity has passed and we'll never get a show of this caliber again.
YESSS!!! 😭
Or maybe just one episode
As great as the show was, it was held back because of the network it was on. Had premium cable picked this up it could’ve been damn near perfect.
Yeah but that final season of Scrubs happened so no one was going to do that again at the time.
I actually realized that Chase was the only person that House gave out his hand as a sign of authentic gratitude/farewell, sort of… I mean, I’ve just finished House 2 days ago for the 2nd time I think, and I have the whole series fresh on my memory.
8:27
House's smile gave everything, relief and joy that Chase came back.
2:30 is when he truly became house. Screwing with foreman, "we were wrong about the puppy", and solving the case in one moment.
We need Chase MD - it would be a really interesting way of exploring House’s earlier years, without needing to bring back much of the original cast.
He's a firefighter now though.
Chicago Fire spoiler:
Never mind, he just quit.
Chase MD?
Let's gooooooo
We've already got that. House MD is already Chase MD. By watching Chase transform into House over the course of the season. By the end he has become the new House.
A sequel called Nurse something was supposed to air which follows that nurse House annoyed in like 2 episodes and House who now supposedly lives somewhere in europe and practices clandestine medicine or something like that, but it never aired I think the writers wanted to leave House's end like this and what we all assumed to be his suicide
I would rather have a Chase and Young House biparallel spinoff
I love that the show has a lot of irony and poetry like chase is cardiology and got stab in the chest, Wilson cancer doctor and got cancer, foreman is a neurologist and got a neurological infection, there a lot of parallels. Also I love chase and house goodbye every house relationship is complicated so just said after 10 years working together "we share a lot of situations".
Chase is House's true protégé. He has no problems crossing lines to back House and he won't whine about everything House does unlike all the other team members.
Truly House's prodigal son!
Chase with House's ball really makes it seem like the legacy has moved on and he will become just as much of a genius as House in the future when he reaches House's age.
he's already a genius
my favourite part about the end scene is a line from Chase to Foreman in season 4: "you're not wearing a lab coat... House doesn't wear lab coats..."
I realized that the music was a bit too much, sorry for that :/

@@fijidogter9731 description ;)
Bit too loud yes, but it does lend it an air of melancholy that I always associated with both House and in the later years, Chase.
That said, House himself would've hated it.
6:30 Cameron's so right here. By this point Chase was already making decisions like house, emotionally tiring himself, a feeling that he has a weight on his shoulders that bothered him so much that it didn't bother him anymore. Its kind of sad in a way.
They did make their own choices.
Cameron doesn't... respect people's right to have good reasons for what they do.
If it looks stupid on the face, it _is_ stupid.
And in most cases she's right, but you can't just make people's limits go away.
The writing in this show was absolutely magnificent! I could not stand pretty boy Chase at first, then they gave the character depth and made you realize there was so much more to him. He ultimately became one of my favorite characters!

At first I thought the music was a bit much but it really does grow on you. That ending crescendo while it pans to “Robert Chase M.D.” just makes me smile and feel all the air taken out of me at the same time
I think House fired him at 4:15 because he saw Chase was becoming more and more like him and didn’t want that for Chase because he actually cares about him and wants him to be better than he is.
If I remember correctly, he needed to fire someone.
He fired Chase, Foreman still quits and Cameron quits at the end willingly
I can’t begin to describe how much I love this
this randomly appeard in my recommended, insane editing, you really understood his character so well, good job
My favorite here is 12:44 - that House's look at Chase, little smile and head nods from both is amazing, beautifly written and played
Half the reason House was able to let go and be with Wilson is because he knew Chase would continue his legacy.
House loved Chase and didn’t want him to end up like him, not the “lonely and broken” part of him anyways. This shows it. Thanks for the vid.
I would like a "Foreman becoming Cuddy over the years" version.
"I don't hate him, I loved him till I figured out it hurts a lot less to just not care" That fucking stings, it's the exact same way I feel about my own father but i've never had it in words.

Chase is one of the characters with more development in the whole series. It's a conflictic character at the start and it scale to an important an beloved one at the end. Curious, Chase become one better House than House (it has more human sensitive), and it is really close to his genius, not by talent, but experience that it's more value.
13:53 He looks so much like House when saying that remark, same expression when House sends that last one jab toward patient at the clinic or something like that :)
We've shared a variety of situations. God I love that so much
"The prodigal son has returned" those words make me cry :(
Chase being fired by House at the end of season 3 felt like a huge moment at the time. Like Foreman quits, Cameron quits, Chase is the only one House sends away. Why? Because he was the only one House thought was ready.
i love that you open it with the x-ray the leg, that's what stablish Chase out of the box thinking. that's why he's House successor. this vid is a masterpiece thank you!
Can't count the number of times I've come back and replayed this video. House MD was just too good a TV show to have ended.
Thank you @Athena for the nostalgia.
Wish there was a sequel/prequel to this amazing show!!
the small glances and looks in the last season between house and chase were honestly just the best
The head nod across the table is the most powerful scene in this montage. IMO. Thanks for putting this together.

Well, he pretty much inherited it lock, stock & barrel after House's "death."
The brief look of positive affirmation house and chase shared after chase returned from his paralysis was so wholesome
Dr. Chase in Season 3 was different gravy. He made good calls followed by great calls. In almost every case he saw something no one else did. Oooooof to have him as the next House . Destiny. 🌠
Chase grew to be one of my favorites over the seasons, started as meek and grew into a great doctor with a penchant for sticking to his guns like House, match made in heaven.
8:27 that little smile when House sees his prodigal son
This has got to be one of my favourite series. Get really nostalgic looking back, I binge watched 8 series again recently, so good.
Chase banging a nun was a zerofucksgiven move even House would hesitate to perfom
“Now you can touch my markers Chase.”
I've realised that House looks at Chase the way he looks at Wilson sometimes. Idk if it's just me seeing too much, but it feels that way.
Chase only need to speak in American accent then he will truly become House
It’s ironic because houses actor is hardcore British faking a American accent.
@@Bb-jh9fo and Chase' actor is Australian, that's my point
In the first script Chase was to be an American, but then Jesse Spencer convinced the directors to make Chase an Australian.
@@matiasmakela1 it really does. 😂
That was awesome, I loved it.
It would be more awesome if they give Chase his own tv show when everyone comes back after all those years after the show ended.
as much as some would like it to happen, its best to let it go. that character had been going for years through house. making its own show would take away the feeling of achievement it got from the end of the show. plus its hard they can keep the creativity going
I'm pretty sure Jesse Spencer (Chase) had already signed a contract for Chicago Fire when House finished airing, if he hadn't signed on we probably would've gotten a spin off
@@Roald94 Chase M.D. hahahaha
Spin offs are good when the characters work by themselves, chase would have been a house 2.0 and people would have compared them , characters that are a copy of another never get popular as the original
If u want spin offs that actually were creative see better call saul wich is a spin off of breaking bad
The thumbnail, the ending shot of "Chase, MD"... Oh yeah, it's all coming together
I think what few realize is that Chase became house because he didn't have in his life a father figure present and who provided him with examples of how to shape his actions and character. Even though in the end he significantly changed from House, a large part of his behavior comes from him. So much so that house speaks when he returns "The prodigal son has returned!". HAHAHA
How's missed Chase so much that he actually hugged him. He tried to play it off as another joke, but just looking at Chase's expression of surprise, you know it was genuine
I'm on season 8 and Chase has been my favorite last 3 seasons, he's grown so much as a character. Thank you for this video!
We need new series of "Chase,M.D"...with Jesse Spencer! Do it.
I think Dr. Robert Chase has seen more character development throughout the series than any other character in the show, and yes, that includes Dr. House himself. Seeing him going from a loyal kiss ass to the actual successor to House has been one of the most enjoyable examples of development I've ever watched. Foreman was always building himself up to be a leader and he finally got that role in season 8 while Chase was being build up to replace House when he "died." And I think House had known that since Season 1. He knew it when he fired him in Season 3, he knew that when he rehired him in Season 6, and he definitely knew that when they said goodbye in Season 8. I don't think there could have been a better end for Chase's character than him taking House's office and role in the last episode of the series.
11:40 that’s gotta be the most love I’ve ever seen House give. Not only did he give Chase some solid advice but he reassured him that the stabbing wasn’t his fault. Huge moment
History always repeats itself, I loved how you can totally see that in the editing. It's also something that was really well depicted in the show.
"I loved him until I figured out it hurts a lot less to just not care."
When you work under house long enough, you will see yourself become part of the house.
At that point, either you chase or be the foreman.
He even morphs into the House look, cuts his hair, scraggly beard
Chase definitely did come full-House-circle. Don't know if the producers intended the 5:56 and 15:06 moments but, so good! Great video and perspective!
That last handshake with House solidified his transformation to a better version of House minus the misery 😎
I loved the "if i wanted you to be like me, i'd be urging you to make a stupid stubborn decision that will blow up your life and leave your lonely and miserable." Its my favorite in the series.
When Chase came back and was doing his surgeries and House said, “We need you,” and when you see how House looked at him. He liked that Chase came back and was counting the episode before he joined the team again.
