House - Season 8 Episode 20 Post Mortem
Feel better?
Over the years, during the course of performing autopsies at Princeton-Plainsboro, Dr. Peter Treiber has often identified mistakes made by physicians that caused the patient's death. These observations have left him questioning the skills of nearly all the doctors on staff... all, that is, except House. When he falls ill, he demands that only House make medical decisions concerning his care. Unfortunately, House and Wilson have taken off on an impromptu road trip without telling anyone, leaving the team to fend alone and lie to their patient to make him believe that House is the guy calling all the shots.

I liked this show because House's character, but I was oblivious to most of their medical conversations. An advice: Don't watch it unless you understand a lot of medical terminology.
Hugh Laurie brings the house down in this role. sorry, I just had to make that pun. If you want to be utterly entertained by a self-destructive Vicodin addict as he childishly plays God with the lives of his patients and root for him every step of the way as he does it, then this is the series for you.
