Role Model, Soap Opera Reference
Hmm.
So, Best Friend and I made the best of a situation.
We re-watched "Daddy's Boy" and then watched "Role Model" which is the first episode on the #3 disc. No General Hospital references to be found.
On the other hand, there I was, lurking around http://www.soapzone.com/ when, what to my wondering eyes should appear? A HUGE paragraph in the gossip and news section on Ignacio Serrichio...Diego Alcazar on GH and "Roof Guy" on S2 House's "Humpty Dumpty."
Carol Banks Weber, the woman who writes the gossip and news column on Soapzone (along with a spoiler column), is an excellent writer with highly reliable information. Here is the paragraph followed by the source url.
"Some fans (like me) may have had a problem with the sudden demonization of Diego, but his portrayer didn’t. Ignacio Serricchio easily rationalized the stunning plot turn of his ordinary teenaged character turning college stalker. It happens in real life, with real, so-called normal teens and their overactive hormones, he said. He’s committed to playing the beats of this and any other plot turn for as long as GH will have him, whether it’s for the long haul (doubtful) or until Diego goes away in handcuffs. On a brighter note, Serricchio’s past, guest-starring turn on the surprise Fox-TV drama, House, as an invalid patient, proved quite enlightening. For one thing, his Italian/Hispanic background invites wide, dramatic expressions, yet his character had to remain still, bedridden for much of the episode; everything for him as an actor had to come from within, through his face. The star of this primetime drama, Hugh Laurie (Dr. Gregory House), turned into quite the welcome enlightenment for Serricchio too, in that – unlike Laurie’s unpredictable live wire of a lead character – he was quite cool to work with, “He’s a goofball. He’s amazing. He’s really very approachable. At first, it was intimidating — for the first two seconds. And then it was just like, ‘Bring it on. I can roll with these guys!’” –Soap Opera Digest.com, Features"

Of course, the use of her prose and the link were posted here with her permission. YAY! House is everywhere! Even on General Hospital websites. I told you how meta that would be. Now we just need to hear House mentioned on a GH episode.
