Let's Have S'more Chat #1
Howdy Campers!
Yes, it's that time again! You have been busy little bees, and you deserve time to relax and shoot the breeze about our favorite oncologist. Of course if you insist on bringing your laptops and tablets along, that's all right too. You guys have proven yourselves to be multitaskers what with all the drabbles, poems, artwork, and stories you created in the short time that you've been here. Just be careful not to get chocolate, marshmallow, and graham crackers stuck in your keyboards.
Let's kick off the discussion by quoting from someone who knows Wilson intimately, Robert Sean Leonard. Here's what he had to say about his character on [H]ouse in a recent interview:
"Let's say House is three-dimensional, and the characters surrounding him are slightly less so," he tactfully words it. "I'm the friend, the guy who worries about him and gives him advice that he doesn't listen to. It's sort of a television role. It doesn't happen in theatre, these guys. In fact, I don't even think it happens in real life."
...The medical team is a bit of the medical Watson — they're, basically, a sounding board for all of the scenes where Sherlock sits in his room and bounces case-ideas off them. I get the ideas bounced around about his personal life."
*Do you agree with RSL's assessment?
*Is Wilson less than three dimensional on the show?
*Is the constantly worried friend a staple of television or does it happen in real life?
*Does fanfiction help to fill in canon or does it run on a separate track? Is fanfic!Wilson a different breed of animal?
Because my computer is not liking the heat (or it might be the graham cracker crumbs wedged into the cracks of my keyboard), my computer has been acting up. I may not be able to respond throughout the discussion, but don't let that stop you. As always, please feel free to air your opinions and discuss amongst yourselves.
This is a camper badge activity.
