Arrow Head to Head #1

Alright, I wanted to try something a little different in the ol’ Movies/TV forum. It will probably go the way of all my other failed endeavours (that reminds me, I’ve gotta finish Rate the Musician) unless this actually seems to garner some interest, but hey, can’t make an omelette without breaking a few eggs.

That probably wasn’t the most relevant adage I could have used.

Anyway, this little event is something I call Head To Head. Essentially, we’ll look at two comparable (if not nearly identical) characters from different shows, and whoever winds up with the most points “officially” wins, but the idea is to get you guys to offer some input too, to “stimulate discussion”, if we really want to put it stupidly. Also, I will want suggestions for future match-ups, since I am sparkless and indifferent.

All clear? Very well. In that case, huhhhhhlettttt’ssssssssgetreadytovirtuallytalkaboutrumbliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing!

Head To Head #1:












The Essentials


Name: Dr. Gregory House
Age: 45
██████████ Head of Diagnostic Medicine, Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital

Name: Dr. Percival (Perry) Cox
Age: 42
██████████ Residency Director, Sacred Heart Teaching Hospital


Hurts, Donut


Addicted to Vicodin due to chronic leg and patient-interaction pain… 1 point


Drinks by himself to numb whatever pain is currently top of his pain pyramid… 0 points

There is Nothing Like a Newbie


Admitted to his staff they were only hired for their looks, juvenile criminal activity, and wealth. Regularly sends them on trips to break into patients’ houses… 1 point


Calls JD girls’ names, pop stars’ names, famous dogs’ names, and belts it home with a painful lesson about life, all before he goes home and drinks some more… 1 point

Get Your Soap On


Sneaks off to watch General Hospital in empty rooms throughout the hospital, usually eschewing patients in the process… 0 points


Is man enough to freely watch Days of our Lives in front of others without having his terrifying effect on others jeopardised… 1 point

Hell Hath No Fury


Ex-wife is a snarky lawyer who briefly revisited her feelings for our man before leaving again with snivelling wheelchair-bound Mark, but has managed to garner romantic interest from hot young doctor… 1 point


Held unrequited love for hot young nurse, but ex-wife is a snarky board member who demanded enough “revenge” sex to prove that Cox is a demon in the sack before sticking around and having two children with him. What a hound. … 1 point

You’re Not The Boss of Me Now


Frequently clashes with, defies, and stands up to someone with breasts… 1 point



Frequently clashes with, defies, and stands up to evil old man through extreme measures such as throwing a computer out the window or treating a sick gardener in Kelso’s office… 1 point

A Winner Is…


Well, I’ll be gummed. The very first Head to Head has finished in a draw, with both House and Cox tallying 4 points each. Sometimes, angry medical veterans are too lovable to accurately separate. Rock-hard on the outside, both doctors have shown a softer marshmallow core and have proven to viewers everywhere that no man… should be an island :’(

--------------------------------------------

So, what do you think? Good idea/bad idea? Any match-up suggestions or comments on this match-up? Let's hear 'em and such.

Fantastic idea mate but I think a vote format would be better to get everyone involved or maybe involved your votes and add them to everyone elses votes.


But good first two choices.

I think House totally should've won, but you've gotta give Dr. Cox his dues too.


for House.

Yeah, I was thinking something along the lines of a vote could be pretty good. Instead of giving points for the comparisons, I could just give the comparisons and people could vote based on those. The character with the highest tally wins.

Yes, you can (now) vote in this thing. As of the next one, it will just be a straight poll, with the points-free comparison points. Or something.

Who should I do next, anyway? I was thinking like, Ray Barone vs. Tim Taylor, or something... along those lines.
