Yesterday, I showed you some of the places Olivia Wilde has traveled and appeared to promote two of her movies that just premiered. And keep in mind that she’s back to work on House too!

Anyway, I got to wondering about all the projects she’s been nvolved with lately and here’s what I found. She’s featured in her second video game to be released this year. The first was the House MD PC game, the second is TRON: Evolution. Here are the titles she’s been a part of, including movies and the video games:

Hi fellow fans!

 First of all a warm “Welcome“ to all of you and a “Thanks, Lynn” to our fav blogger here for giving me the chance to participate and share my bits here with all of you.
Now let the fun begin! I’m sure all of you know a lot about our favorite team of doctors over at PPTH, but I hope the bits I’m gonna share with you are completely new to you.
Back when the show was still in its infancy, the main characters were of a different age and one even had a different name than they did later.  Let’s start with the old team, the “ducklings”, as fandom calls them: The original age of Chase was between 35 and 37 and he was of American origin. He was made an Aussie because that’s where Jesse comes from. Cameron’s age back then was supposed to be between 27 or 32 and Foreman’s original age was 26. But in the beginning his first name wasn’t Eric – it was Taylor. You can find it in the original draft of the pilot script!
Well, and then there are the three main characters: Cuddy’s original age was 39 and Wilson’s was 38. However, let’s not forget our fav grumpy doc himself. House’ age was 34 back in the very first days of the show. This last bit I got from a new book – Hugh Laurie: The Biography, written by Anthony Bunko.
I’ve got more of this trivia to share, so if you want more, let me know. Your wish is my command!

Among the many, many fans that love House, there are those of us who always record the show and watch it later, when we know we will be uninterrupted. And if I particularly loved a scene, I can back it up and watch that scene again. Don’t even ask how much easier it is when I do recaps…

So when I saw this report in Advertising Age this week, I just had to share it with you. The advertisers think it’s a bad thing for people to timeshift the show because they are less likely to watch the commercials. Even if they do watch them, they may not be timely by the time they are watched. That means wasted ad dollars. And it could mean less dollars for the show. Yikes!

I don’t know what to suggest, since I timeshift practically everything I watch on TV. But if you do see the commercials when you watch House, be sure to try to support the sponsors so the show continues to do well.

Here are the top 11 shows that regularly get timeshifted:
