Man, my exclusive Emmy red carpet Q&A with House exec producer Katie Jacobs is the gift that keeps on giving.
Not only did it give me fodder for two consecutive Ask Ausiellos, but that spellbinding scoop about the birth of Foreteen (formerly known as Thoreman) even made its way into last week’s EW.
And I’ve saved the best for this week’s episode of Ausiello TV: the actual interview itself!
As an added bonus, House’s underused Jesse Spencer makes a cameo and breaks news about the life-and-death arc that will likely pull Chase off the backburner.
Enjoy!

god i really dont get jesse spencer.. he acts like he still is an important part of the show.. althought he has just been an overpaid extra for 1,5 season now
You misspelled ‘fourteen’ hun. Pretty blatant mistake, you need a better editor.
He didn’t misspell fourteen. It was a play on Foreman + Thirteen. So FORE (from Forman) and teen from Thirteen = FORETEEN..Get it?
Wow, Rachel. He meant foreteen as in Foreman + Thirteen. Man you are just… not smart. And Michael, forgive me, but it seems like the only person talking about Huddy in this interview, is you. Say whaaaa? You got me all excited. Thirteen is a but boring, not really new worthy at this point. But I am excited to see more of foreman. An “Thoreman” is an absolutely genius name. Even though Rachel clearly didn’t get it.
Jesse Spencer/Chase is one of the most popular characters on House and is very important because some views have stopped watching in his absence witch is more then you can say for 13. I think the show would actually gaine views in her absence. LOL
No matter how hard I try, I just can’t get excited about Foreteen. OE is a terrific actor, but Foreman has never been the most interesting of the Ducklings. That, coupled with the overabundance of screentime Thirteen has already received, makes this seem like a big mistake. Hopefully the writers will prove me wrong.
Still looking forward to the House/Cuddy, though.

Jesse Spencer is for sure the hottest thing on this show. Shore better makes some use of that soon! Eye-candy is always good
House used to be the coolest and wittiest series on TV, but lately it’s getting booooooring !!!
Micheal, Micheal! Where is hameron good news? I’m waiting you!
Well, I guess you mentioned the kiss… All we got from Katie was info about 13. On the other hand, yay for more Chase screentime! I wonder if he accidently kills someone.
Spoilers about the girly blond guy and 4man. Don’t care.
Using 13 to make 4man more popular. Not working.
Someone make it stop. Please.
No offence to Olivia Wilde but Thirteen is the most boring, annoying character I can remember. I don’t care about her kissing another woman, which is a cheap tease to bring in the guys or about her relationship with Foreman which everyone predicted from last February. Please can Chase euthanize her and put us all out of our misery?
I’m sick of hearing about Thirteen and the Huddy kiss. Katie Shore said there would be more Chase and Cameron but it looks like the first time they show up other than as a cameo is episode 6, which is going to be all about the Huddy kiss and the best they can come up with for Chase is a recycled euthanasia plot from season 3. Jacobs and Shore need to stop lying to the audience. This show will never be as good as it used to be.
Maybe Chase will euthanize 13! Then they can throw a parade in his honor.
Jan, who the hell is Katie Shore? You’re a dumbass.
Katie Jacobs and David Shore. The computer blipped.
Or maybe they’re working with one brain these days. The show’s that much less intelligent.
jesse spencer looks really hot here. damn.
WTF KATIE JACOBS!! You get asked about House and Cuddy and you respond with Thirteen???!! NO ONE CARES about 13! ugh.
Oh, please. Jesse is not acting like he’s important, he’s just answering the question with a little bit of humour. What’s wrong with that?
And he can feel important, after all he was part of an excellent show. And know that he’s not on it anymore, he’s probably having a lot of people saying they miss him on the show.
About 13, i’m already tired of saying i don’t like her and that i’m not interested. BTW, a lot of people say that, and Ausiello gives every single spoiler to be about 13. But now i know why, it’s because Katie won’t stop talking about and won’t talk about anything else!!!
So you asked about Cuddy and she just talked about 13 the entire time? OK.
13 and Foreman….oh goody….not!
I sure hope it’s 13 that Chase puts out of their misery. To the producers of HOUSE: WE, THE FANS OF HOUSE, DO NOT WANT STORIES ABOUT 13!!!!!!!!!
HOW MANY TIMES DO WE HAVE TO TELL YOU this???
WE LOVE YOU, HUGH.
Oh Jesse why can’t we have more of you on TV?!? He’s so adorable and he’s a fine actor!! That wasn’t really a plot that would say that he’s definitely going to be back. Ausiello you should have tried to get more out of him!! But whatever, unless I see proof that Jesse and Jennifer for that matter, are back, I’m not watching this show as dedicated as I once was. This show has gone downhill ever since season 4.
And what does Jacobs do about it?! Oh let’s add of that boring character we call 13 and go on and on and on about her. Why don’t they get it through their heads, there’s a very large majority of House fans who do NOT like 13 nor do they care about her. My gosh, it’s like she created the show just for 13 and forgot about House! The main character!!
The idea of Chase euthanising 13. Priceless you guys! I mean how typical of Jacobs to prolong the life of a very well…lifeless character. Complete and utter BS! Shore & Jacobs better open their eyes before they have no show left
I honestly don’t know why I get sucked into reading these message boards anymore. All this ends up being is Thirteen bashing… Frankly, I like the character just fine; actually, I like how her storyline’s developing! Jesse’s character (not the actor) wasn’t bad, but he was SO needy and I’m glad they’ve moved on. (His character is better for it nowadays.) And while I’m curious how the older characters are doing, the only thing that could make me stop watching HOUSE M.D. would be if they got rid of House himself. End of story.
Here`s the thing about 13. A few fans like her. (Mostly because she`s hot and bisexual.) Alot more fans just don`t care about her, and then there`s ALOT of fans who loathes her and just hate her more everytime she`s mentioned… so please, PLEASE, for 13 and Olivia Wildes own sake: STOP TALKING ABOUT HER!!!! Maybe that would give her a chance to actually prove herself without the fans choking on her as she is pushed down our throats.
I hope they really bring back Chase (cutest sex on legs ever = Jesse Spencer)for good. Chase is such great character. Someone you can just feel for
I want him back (and for longer than one minute per episode), tons of women do too and since its Jesse “gorgeouse” Spencer I’m sure a lot of men also want to see more of him ;P
The idea of Foreteen gives me the creeps. Clearly everybody hates her, why can’t they just let her die ??? And while they’re add it they should get rid of boring Taub and stupid Kutner too. Why not send them to a conference – plan crash – no survivors = HAPPY FANS!
That wasn’t a dish on Huddy, that was a dish on 13 and Chase. False Advertising!!!
Thanks Ausiello!
Loved the Jesse Spencer interview. Though it’s quite sad that we saw more of the guy in that interview than we usually do per episode. I’m glad to hear that he seems to actually have a storyline coming up. Finally!!! Bring back the Chase!!!
As for Thirteen. I’m pretty apathetic towards her (I prefer the overbearing Cameron to her). And as for her upcoming storyline, it seems like we’re getting more character development and screentime for her, than we’ve received for Chase, Cameron, Freman, Cuddy & Wilson in the past 4 years. Seriously. I don’t get why Katie is so excited about this, because it doesn’t seem like many of us fans are.
I miss my Chase & Wilson.
Jorge said: “I honestly don’t know why I get sucked into reading these message boards anymore. All this ends up being is Thirteen bashing…”
Jorge, imagine how WE feel. Everytime we read a spoiler, see a promo, watch an episode – it’s all about Thirteen. It seems to us that Shore and Jacobs have made her Hugh Laurie’s co-star, and I have no interest in the House/Hadley Hour. The fact that ratings have fallen drastically since the good old days of Chase, Cameron, and Foreman is a strong indication that viewers feel the same way.
Another day, another Huddy/13 spoiler. Aaaaand that’s another week that I won’t be watching. Congrats on sinking a once-great show Katie!
I know I’m in the minority here, but I LOVE the Taub-Kutner-Thirteen team, if only because they’re willing and able to match barbs with House. By the end of Season 3 I was SO sick of Cameron’s puling moral superiority and Chase’s bland kowtowing to House that I rejoiced when they “left” – Foreman was the only one of the original three worth watching and thankfully he’s still very much there. Also, I think Lucas is hilarious.
“Maybe Chase will euthanize 13! Then they can throw a parade in his honor.”
LOL. If Chase would euthanize Thirteen I would love him forever.
Good grief, I’ve never seen a more miserable, unsymapthetic dying character on all of television. Soembody need to end both Thirteen’s and the audience’s misery.
Thanks for Jesse Spencer’s interview.

I’m with the ones that want Chase to euthanize 13
But is it right that he got more screentime in this column than in many episode of the show? Sad…
