@jan_murray I worked on House. There were a few episodes that weren’t the usual formula and exciting to work on. My time around Hugh - always a gentleman and not surprised he sent you this post. He’s a good man.
English
@housewaiful Yeah don't get me started on that lot lol, but also random people who just assume that's what celebs do
I may be too kind to him here, but part of me believes he wouldn't have dwelved into it if she was giving shit to him and his acting directly, instead of the writing
English
@_FourStories The people saying that are mainly ones who already hate him so yeah they wouldn't think that further shhdjfkf
He's totally entitled to respond
English
I'll start by saying people thinking HL is pathetic or thin-skinned (which he is, admittedly) for that tweet are kinda missing the point
OP's tweet blew up, he saw it, given that it's reheashed and frankly lazy criticism he stood up for himself and more importantly the show and
English
@housewaiful Oh of course, makes me laugh people genuinely believe he was vanity searching like his name was in that tweet 4 times do you know how an algorithm even works
And I don't think people realise but he's probably heard/read the same criticism 2000 times, you can't help it sometimes
English
@_FourStories I just know her business was on his home timeline that's why he even replied. Already drunk + being pissy and the first thing you see when you open twitter is someone shitting on your show. I would've thrown hands too

ce@housewaiful
@onthemuddyroad @nwtnsappletree I’m betting it made his name trending so he instantly came across it when clicking the search page. Even before he replied the interactions were A Lot (i know bc before he had seen it i was going through his name as per usual and its full of mentions connected to that acc)
English
@housewaiful Yeah and then also people who wouldn't usually care just see it's the trend of the day and chime in and take sides
As I said don't think the tweet itself was deserving of an apology but I understand why he'd do it
English
@_FourStories His supporters get to have their misogynistic acts of the day and her supporters get to be more emboldened in their fake "feminism" trash 🙃
English
@housewaiful @bestiewooster ridiculous
The guy just doesn't wanna talk at all
English
@housewaiful @bestiewooster Think besides BBC Radio and stuff like that he's only ever been on James O'Brien when promoting WDYAE and on that Veep podcast but that was as you said with fellow actor friends
Dr. Mike of course has no idea but the whole "he hates House" discourse that came from it was so
English
@bestiewooster back and forth like us mere mortals
Yeah definitely not a fun first half of the year for his PR team haha, although as far as celebrities go he's still pretty tame
English
@bestiewooster Oh yeah I thought this one was pretty funny and don't think he meant any harm, didn't really need to apologise imo, it was tongue in cheek and she's milking it as much as she can
But that if you're famous that's the reaction you generate these days on here, can't really have a
English
When he's not self-sabotaging picking fights on here you get so many stories like this all over the internet
Team Pajamas@kfairwrites
@jan_murray I've never seen an episode of House, but would it help at all if I told you I worked on another Hugh Laurie show and he was incredibly generous?
English
If you count this as a sketch, although This Time is a spoof/sticom, it's probably my all time favourite sketch
Alan Partridge - Quote of the Day@APartridgeQOTD
Mr Martin Brennan
English
@bestiewooster The fights could be quite funny tbh there's something endearing about seeing celebs being just like us and his twitter has always been weirdly enternteining but these days you do look at him and think please mate why are you digging your own hole
English
@bestiewooster REALLY stay out of it) because otherwise he's very likeable and he's also had some fair political/societal takes on other issues

I’m sorry if people have been having a go at you because of my tweet. Not at all the plan. I was very slightly drunk and already upset about something that had nothing to do with you. If it’s any comfort, I got it in the neck too. I’m a thin-skinned twat, apparently, even though it wasn’t my skin. I was sticking up for the writers who I adored. Obviously I shouldn’t have cited Bach/Kahlo/Moore - asking for trouble - and would have done better to go for the 10,000 blues songs written around the same 12 bar chord structure. I’ve listened to most of them and will keep doing so. Because we love what we love.
English
because of the visibility the famous person has
But in this case, not even taking into consideration the vile stuff she spouts and writes daily, she was totally enjoying the attention she was seeking
English
The downside with celebrities – while the idea of social media reducing the distance between them and the common person (and they are common people after all) being very appealing – is that it snowballs with people surfing the wave and getting very nasty and there's no balance
English
10 hours and already fighting the urge to kill people
Louella De La Twee@_FourStories
Had to make a side account to rant about House/BritCom (mainly The Day Today bunch) without being annoying on main even though I hate 99% of the fandom(s) so here we are
English
@housewaiful @bestiewooster is out there for such a famous and revered actor, in an age where literally everyone's got a podcast
English
@housewaiful @bestiewooster I don't think people realise *how much* he hates doing this stuff just because he generally comes across as nice and funny (albeit a bit awkward lol) when interviewed
When I started to become a fan and hunt down stuff I was quite shocked by how little long-form video/audio
