The House Season Two DVD is coming out tomorrow, and I had been intending on reviewing it whether or not I got a review copy from NBC Universal. But then I didn't get one, and I haven't felt motivated to get a start on what I could write without having the DVD in my hands. I was feeling a little burned out on House reviewing by the end of last season (not the show, just the reviewing), and I don't seem to be completely ... unburned. So even though I'll likely pick it up tomorrow, I don't think I'll have the time or motivation to watch and write anything quickly, and it's going to seem a little beside the point the longer it takes me to get it done. Besides, now I have a stack of other review materials I'm excited about that I need to prioritize because I did get review copies, which makes companies expect timely reviews, and I don't want to get my kneecaps broken by angry PR people.
But anyway. It's out tomorrow. Great show. Buy it.
