Style Over Substance
I love House. I’m on season 2 and it’s great, not a single disappointing episode so far.
Which is why I’m dreading the imminent introduction of Kal Penn into the series. Hopefully, my fears will prove to be unfounded.
But, regardless of his acting skills, I don’t want to see him anywhere near politics, along with the rest of Hollywood.
Unfortunately, I’ve once again been ignored and Kal has been hired by the White House as a liaison between the Obama administration and Asian constituents.
There are good reasons why previous White Houses have declined to involve actors/celebrities/screen puppets too closely in state matters.
Most revolve around the innate stupidity of said people.
There is a (slight) silver lining, though: Kal is undoubtedly going to provide frequent and unintentional comedy gold.

So, between Kumar and that idiot Franken we’re going to see what positives?

Yeah… too bad he’s more educated than you are and thus your complaints about him with no background knowledge of him just make you look stupid.

Yeah, you’re right!
And you’re witty too!
Awesome!
