my vote goes to house. I like his character alot and find find his supporting cast to be very good as well. As for scrubs...i'm all for the funny ones that air on comedy central but the newer episodes lack the charm and wittyness that the older shows gave me. This is not to say they suck or anything i'm just saying i think the "old scrubs" was better.

Can't watch House with my parents as ones a Surgeon (Dad) and the other a GP(Mum).

Dad: Its (blank)'s disease, its so easy to work that out. An intern could guess that.
30min later
House: We've got it! Its...(blank)'s disease
Dad: Took his time

Mum: five doctors for one patient! What is this? Heaven?

Mum: If the hospital had to choose between the "expert" House or a nicer guy they knew who was mediocre, they'd take the latter. Everytime.
My mum does that too! She's a registered nurse and bitches whenever they take some creative license.

I much prefer Scrubs. I love the comedy of it. The script is pure genius. And the drama is really well played out.

I'm going to have to say I cannot choose between House or Scrubs. House, is a mostly serious show, with it's funny moments. And Scrubs, is a mostly funny show with it's serious moments. Depending on what mood I'm in I would choose different answers, so...

It's a draw.

I noticed you missed the only man who might be equal to House. I'm talking about Becker, that show was American brilliance until Reggie left and it went funny, not haha funny but the bad kind. I guess I'll vote House since I have pretty much every episode.

House by far. Hugh Laurie is a brilliant actor and until he hosted an episode of SNL I had no idea he had such an accent.

House is also a great character who can be incredibly unpredictable. He's just enough of an arrogant prick to make you like him. Excellent character, awesome show.

Not quite, House is just off the wall with the kind of decisions he makes. In a recent episode he took a sledgehammer to a toilet to make a point =p. Also if anyone actually pulled the kind of stuff House does in a regular hospital they would be fired no matter how good they were.

Hmm. It seems you have a point there. Then again, we're just talking about shows. :p Nobody said it had to pass off in real life. I love the way he does some of the shit he does in the show. Half the reason I watch it, even if it's un-realistic. So I dunno.

Scrubs got really boring after the first season. House is the best and funniest of them all. :D

I like House because it has a good balance between comedy and drama.
On Scrubs if anyone ever dies it's such a slap to the face since it's usually so cartoony. I like to call this the Gurren Lagann effect.
My moms a nurse and she told me that scrubs is much more like a real hospital than house. People crack jokes and do dumb things and pull anything they can to kind of lessen the pain. House solves medical mysteries that are either totally fictitious or easier than they sound while the characters never develop any real emotions. I have a feeling if you ask anyone who has worked for a while in a hospital they will agree that even with the cartoonish elements Scrubs gets it closer to reality.
Yeah, I know a lot of doctors and they all say the same thing, Scrubs is the most realistic medical show out there.
