Post COPIADO de http://fatolady.livejournal.com/676.html?mode=reply
E explico por que é COPIADO. Desde o dia que a internet parou (17 de maio), todos os fãs de HOUSE buscam explicações para a saída da Lisa Edelstein. Ninguém da FOX dá declarações, o David Shore não se pronunciou e o Greg Yaitaines só fala BOSTA (como sempre) -- aliás, como esse merda pode ser diretor de uma série tão boa?. Muitas petições foram criadas, uma campanha de mobilização no twitter (lmfao) está planejada para hoje às 20h30, e um vídeo MUITO bem feito foi editado.

Aviso que o post é longo, mas vale MUITO a pena ler. Se você for fã, gostar de HOUSE, ver de vez em quando ou até tentar descobrir o porquê da internet ter parado terça passada, LEIA. Eu espero que um dia o David Shore apareça para esclarecer essa história muito esquisita da saída da Lisa Edelstein.
I am starting this story at the end which may seem a little strange but please bear with me and soon hopefully it will make sense. We are now 2 days from the Season 7 finale and all the friends I have who are HOUSE fanatics are in mourning. We (myself included) are in mourning because our favorite female TV doctor has decided not to return to House for an 8th season.
One thing that has been bothering us in the fan community, is the WHY? Why after seven years of playing this character who Lisa has repeatedly said she loved, promoting this character, and being the head cheerleader for the show HOUSE, did Lisa Edelstein decide it wasn’t worth it any more? Why did Lisa decide to walk away from something that has been a huge part of her life for almost a decade when she so clearly wanted to come back?
In an interview with E Online on the red carpet at this year’s PCA awards when asked about the future of HOUSE, Lisa made the comment that while she doesn’t know how long the show will continue, “I will be there as long as I’m invited to be there”. That comment was made on 01/06/11, less than 6 months ago.
In an article dated 03/02/2011 from Megan Masters for TVLine, Lisa Edelstein was asked about House returning for season 8 and she is quoted as saying, “Nobody at work seems to think it won’t [return],” she tells TVLine. “Everybody wants to come to a deal, and I certainly am looking forward to a Season 8. I don’t think anybody wants to see [House] go off the air,” she continues. “It’s a big show for Fox and for NBC Universal, so it’s just a matter of everybody dotting their I’s and crossing their T’s.” http://www.tvline.com/2011/03/lisa-edelstein-on-houses-uncertain-future-nobody-wants-to-see-it-go-off-the-air/
One theory as to the WHY that I have heard people spouting off about is “the money” and while yes the money is important and I’m sure a part of it,…..I think it’s more…..much more. I believe in the land of the free and the home of the brave, where the right to free speech is protected (at least on paper); I think Lisa Edelstein was a victim of having the wrong political view.
In February of this year Lisa Edelstein stared in an advertisement regarding abortion for MoveOn.org a liberal political group that is pro-choice and a supporter of Planned Parenthood. While the ad did not promote abortion, it was targeted to battle the GOP’s effort to legislate changes in abortion law and reduce public funding to agencies like Planned Parenthood. The message was “if an abortion is a woman’s choice, don’t send her back to the 50’s for (dangerous) back alley abortions”.
The Fox Network has a long and colorful reputation of being ultra conservative and a (pro-life supporter). The FOX network is the network that airs HOUSE.
This dynamic, set up a behind the scenes drama that has had HOUSE fans all over the world scratching their heads this year and trying to figure out “what the HELL is going on with HOUSE MD”.
MY THEORY AND THE TIME LINE I USE TO SUPPORT THIS THEORY.
November or December 2010
Sometime before the 1st of the year 2011 Lisa Edelstein was contracted to do the ad for MoveOn.org
January 2011
The Fox Network found out Lisa’s intent to make the ad for MoveOn.org (before the ad was produced). Someone (important) at the Fox Network made a phone call to Lisa warning her not to do the ad (as reported in this French TV Guide interview) http://iwatchforcuddy.livejournal.com/2011/05/01/.
January 2011
David Shore called back to “fix” HOUSE.
An additional episode added to season 7 of HOUSE epi 23 (I believe this episode is intended to remove the character of Lisa Cuddy. I also believe in an effort to thumb his nose at the Fox Network, David Shore decided to call this episode Moving On in ref. to MoveOn.org)
Article by NELLIE ANDREEVA for Deadline.com http://www.deadline.com/tag/david-shore-house/
NBC announces that they are shelving the remake of the Rockford Files because the “writer and executive producer” of the show David Shore, “unexpectedly had to devote his entire attention to his Fox series House. The veteran Fox medical drama had planned an ambitious multi-episode arc featuring Dr. House on the road, which was a brainchild of executive producer Katie Jacobs. But when the arc was scrapped in advanced stages, Shore had to jump in and help re-break stories for a significant portion of the season, which also recently grew larger with an order for one additional episode by Fox.”
HOUSE episode ratings and original air date according to Wikipedia
Now What? September 20, 2010 10.54 million viewers
Selfish September 27, 2010 10.18 million viewers
Unwritten October 4, 2010 10.78 million viewers
Massage Therapy October 11, 2010 9.69 million viewers
Unplanned Parenthood October 18, 2010 9.65 million viewers
Office Politics November 8, 2010 9.63 million viewers
A Pox on Our House November 15, 2010 10.77 million viewers
Small Sacrifices November 22, 2010 9.24 million viewers
I may be less than learned about TV production, but those ratings don’t seem like they belong to a show on its last legs and needs to be “fixed”. If David Shore came back in January 2011 then several of the shows listed below were already produced or in production. It is my "guestimate" that his involvement started back with the Two Stories episode.
Larger Than Life January 17, 2011 10.52 million viewers
Carrot or Stick January 24, 2011 10.45 million viewers
Family Practice February 7, 2011 12.33 million viewers
You Must Remember This February 14, 2011 9.86 million viewers
Two Stories February 21, 2011 10.41 million viewers
Recession Proof February 28, 2011 11.01 million viewers
Bombshells March 7, 2011 11.08 million viewers
Out of the Chute March 14, 2011 10.41 million viewers
Fall From Grace March 21, 2011 9.49 million viewers
The Dig April 11, 2011 8.93 million viewers
Last Temptation April 18, 2011 8.80 million viewers
Changes May 2, 2011 8.57 million viewers
The Fix May 9, 2011 7.94 million viewers
After Hours May 16, 2011 8.92 million viewers
Now the meat of my theory and then we will return to the timeline.
It is my opinion that an important person at the ultra-conservative FOX Network called Lisa Edelstein and “warned” her not to do the ad for MoveOn.org. We already know this to be true from what she told the French TV Guide a few months ago. http://iwatchforcuddy.livejournal.com/2011/05/01/. When she refused to back out of the ad, I believe the network contacted David Shore and demanded that he get back to HOUSE and “fix this”. I believe they told him to kill the House/Cuddy relationship and get rid of Lisa.
Even though, I wasn’t a fly on the wall when David Shore had his discussion with the Fox Network executives, I still have this opinion that David Shore, like most people didn’t “enjoy” being told what to do, especially when it involves hurting a friend and colleague. I believe Mr. Shore and Ms. Jacobs are every bit as much a victim of the Fox Network as Lisa Edelstein is. PLEASE STOP BEING ANGRY WITH THE HOUSE PRODUCERS. Except maybe GY (he deserves it, just because he’s a troll.) Ka-BOOM!
I also believe that very few if any other people (except Katie Jacobs) knew about this conversation and that is why Ms. Edelstein remained a vocal cheerleader for the show and stated she was looking forward to season 8 of HOUSE until the very end. I think Katie Jacobs knew, because since control of the show had to be ripped from her VERY capable hands and returned to David Shore, she had to be told. It was Katie Jacobs who had to stand by and watch the remainder of “her” season be scrapped to obey the orders of the Fox Network. Someday, I truly hope that those scripts are dug out of the trash and published so that all the HOUSE fans can see how truly great the HOUSE creators David Shore and Katie Jacobs and the wonderful writing staff “intended” to handle the House / Cuddy relationship.
I think David Shore and Katie Jacobs began setting the stage for Ms. Edelstein to Move On from HOUSE but I think they did it with a passive aggressive twist of their own. I think David Shore decided to go down with the ship ( so to speak) as he would rather destroy HOUSE, (his baby) than allow Fox to hurt a friend and steal his dignity. I think he started ordering the most “Wacky, asinine, and OFF THE WALL” scripts you could get.
This season (about since, oh I would say, Two Stories) the fan community has been rending their clothes and all but walking about in sackcloth and ashes, trying to figure out what is going on with HOUSE and what all it means. The fan community has been nuts on the online forums trying to find someone smarter or closer to the truth, someone with an answer. The fans have been looking for clues under rocks, in the music, hoping it’s a dream, praying House is in a coma, looking for something…anything to make it make sense. But how do you make sense of something that is not intended to make sense.? Since David Shore returned to the show as Executive Producer the ratings have been going down steadily since the shock of Bombshells, (the way over the top episode that ended the House/Cuddy romance). And I think that is what he intended to happen.
Since that time EVERY interview, by EVERY writer or producer has almost been intentionally worded to produce anger in the fan community. Why? Well, my thoughts are these; I believe David Shore has been stirring a hornet’s nest that was intended to drop right in the lap of the Fox Network. They (David Shore and Katie Jacobs) don’t want to lose Lisa Edelstein, but they have to let her go because that is what they were being bullied into doing. I am basing this belief in part on an interview Katie Jacobs gave to Barbara Barnett for Blog Critics published 05/13/2011, “Lisa is such a valuable member [of the cast]. I challenge any other actress on TV to do what she is so—does so, you know, seemingly effortlessly. She goes between drama, comedy, intelligence, sex appeal… It’s certainly not my plan or David’s plan or the creative team’s plan to not have Lisa in the show, and I can just say that I will not rest until I figure it out.”

The wording in that statement is strange, why would she have to "figure it out" unless there was a problem to solve? From what she is saying, I would say that David Shore and Katie Jacobs would definitely like to have Lisa back in the cast for season 8, but how can Katie "figure it out"; how do one or 2 people fight a communications giant like the Fox Network? Answer: they don’t…..they just walk softly and carry a big stick (and 50 million angry fans make for one very big stick).
David Shore, in case you ever see this I want you to know that I am SORRY for all the mean, hateful things I have said about you this year.
PS - I don't know of anyway to prove any of this theory is true, short of a statement by any of the parties involved and that is not likely to happen. Please just know that it is written with the best of intentions. I have tried to give credit to anyone I have quoted or used information from. It is not my intention to claim credit for any of your words and I apoligize if I have missed giving anyone credit.
