Don't get me wrong I have no doubt they care a lot about each other, and I've spend the whole season wanting to believe they're actually real friends... but I'm not really seeing it. It's probably a personal thing, to me a friendship has to be based on caring and desire to have that other person in your life while Wilson and Cuddy are basing their relationship on House(Cuddy) and Wilson's fraking savior complex. Even back in season 3, when they started getting close and Wilson took her out, it was because, according to him she worked hard and needed it. NEED of course being the main word on Wilson vocabulary. They do have real moments but from where I'm standing the whole thing it's not really working.
I think it's a bizzare friendship that they have. Someone called them 'friends-in-law', and I think that's a lovely term for House. But they have their moments, which is why I hesitate to relegate them back to the pre-S4 'not-friends' category.
I haven't seen 'As Good as it Gets'. Peter Jacobsen was in it too?
And yes, of course - losing Rachel, you're absolutely right. But I wasn't really thinking of Rachel or Daniel Wilson when I wrote this, but you're absolutely right.
