I love watching medical movies and series. One of my favourite American televison medical drama is Dr House. The main charakter in this movie is unconventional and a pain medication-dependent Dr. Gregory House. In every episode of this series Dr House with his diagnostic team tries to diagnose and heal his patients. His best friend James works as a doctor in the same hospital, he is department head of oncology. A very interesting fact is that an inspiration for the series was Sherlock Holmes. The charakter of Gregory House is based on Sherlock Holmes who was created by Arthur Conan Doyle. We can say that House is like Holmes.There is a lot of similiarities between them. They both play instruments and they are addicted to drugs: House uses vicodin and Holmes takes cocaine. Morover, they are self-confident, arrogant, never give up and they try their best to achieve their goals. Besides they both have deductive skills: they show powers of observation and deduction. They have as well the same address which is 221B. The best friend of House is Dr. James Wilson whose name is similar to name of the best friend of Holmes which is Watson. How can we see there is a lot of similarities between Holmes and House.
