I don't necessarily tend to screen characters for AS, but I do take notice of traits that these characters share with me. If they share a lot of autistic traits with me, I begin to consider the possibility that they might be autistic.

As for House, he is made of PureAwesomeness. I love his relationship with Wilson. The way Wilson reacts to what House does is what I call "par for the course" humor.

1. House does something crazy
2. Wilson responds as if he expected it all along.

This was my favorite part in "Act Your Age," an episode that I otherwise found to be... sub-par. And then there was "TB or Not TB."

Heh. "Compelling television."

I watch house, it's one of my favouite shows on tv. House has absolutely no asperger traits though.

Been using the word far too often recently, but house is a perfect example of a sociopath.

As for a proper medical diagnosis, it would probably be a mix between schizophrenia/ocpd and somatization disorder.

I think we'll be seeing a lot more of wilson next series.
