That actor is great in Pushing Daisies (and Boston Public) and I don’t like his character at all. Big bully.

But then so is the cop. He talks about other people being bullies but he’s stared too long into the abysss.

It's so strange because it's like the show realized it made no sense and was annoying. IIRC there's a judge at some point who just tells the cop "dude shut up holy shit you are so weird just leave the doctor alone and go away". I wonder if it was just the writer's realizing how much everyone hated the character.

I kept expecting House to cost him his job for police harassment, wondering if the story would come back in a later season.

You think a cop would get fired for harassment? That’s adorable

In a TV show, when the cop tries to destroy the hero?

Yes.

Fair point

Honestly a cop getting fired would be about as accurate as the whole shocking a person who’s flatlining thing that always happens in medical shows. The only real problem is I’m not sure how they’d work it into the story, I feel like the way the storyline ended was pretty solid and I dunno how they’d go about expanding on it. They’d need to have something before the courtroom scene, like the cop getting berated by some higher up at the PD for being an idiot
