Yeah I thought exactly the same about House. The story really felt like the old house. Made me actually wish for another season if they could pull off that style again. The last season was a load of crap. House is better without any relationships otherwise he becomes all soppy.

Alcatraz is really good. At the end of the first episode I thought meh this could be really boring for a whole season. After watching the second one I was really hooked. Now having watched the third im still hooked. One thing that bothers me is Jorge Garcia being called "Doc" it doesn't really suit him in my opinion. Apart from that it is a really enjoyable show. I really like the flashbacks I think they are really good. The warden is really well played.

Yeah he was better on lost. He is good in this but my problem is the name he just doesn't seem like a "doc" character. To be honest the cast isn't anything special. Tell you what cast surprised me was Person of Interest them two are amazing.
