AE: You wrote a very pivotal episode of House: ”Lucky Thirteen.” Fox cut down the beginning scene from what it originally teased for air. What did you think of that and are there any tidbits you can share with us regarding the writing of that scene?
SH: Well, part of the cut was just time, plain and simple. You always end up shooting more than you can use and then cutting to make it fit. As for the rest of it: any FOX objections to that teaser weren’t about the gay content, but the general explicitness of the scene (which is fair: it was a network show in primetime) and in particular a moment when Thirteen dropped to her knees in front of Spencer. They were actually pretty cool about the rest of it. We were bummed (“we” meaning my co-writer Liz Friedman, director Greg Yaitanes, and me) when we found out later that they had an existing rule against portraying—or indicating—oral sex (straight or gay), because if we’d known that we could have just choreographed the sequence a different way. The scene itself was originally Liz’s idea and it was basically just for the fun of it. We’d introduced Thirteen as bisexual, but the show was called House, and it was almost impossible to show any character who wasn’t actually House having an outside relationship. And almost everyone else in the cast was a dude. So she ended up dating Foreman for a while and when that was over we both really wanted to hook her up with a girl, if only briefly, just to show that side of her was real. And we knew that Olivia was definitely game, so Liz wrote this really hot make-out.
It’s funny because later there was this backlash of people saying “of course the show only uses girl-on-girl as a kind of gimmick to get guys to watch” and in actuality it was gay women entertaining themselves. One thing I’m still sad about was that we wrote a later scene in which they actually bond in a real way, to show that their relationship wasn’t just sex/acting out, and that scene got cut (again, for time), which was/is just the reality of procedural television—anything that doesn’t directly advance the plot gets put on the chopping block in post. So you lose a lot of character nuance. The next year Liz had the script pages for that cut scene framed and gave them to me for my birthday.

Дэвид Шор стал лауреатом 2013 Media Access Awards, поддерживающей изображение в кино и на телевидении персонажей с ограниченными физическими возможностями - за создание образа Хауса, само собой
2013 Media Access Awards The number of characters in films and on TV with disabilities is still "abysmally small." But this year’s Media Access Awards casts a spotlight on the success stories and the individuals who championed diversity. The WGAW’s David Shore, Norman Lear and George R.R. Martin were among them.
When David Shore created the character of Dr. Gregory House, the brilliant, pill-popping misanthropic diagnostician on the award-winning series House, he intended him to be a wheelchair user, but the network nixed it. “The cane was the compromise,” Shore told the audience at the recent 2013 Media Access Awards event. Ironically, over time, House’s disability seemed almost incidental, eclipsed by actor Hugh Laurie’s portrayal and the sheer quality of the series storytelling. Concedes Shore, who was presented this year’s Evan Somers Memorial Award. “I’m here being honored for showing the world that a person with disabilities can be an a--hole.”
Shore was among an impressive group of honorees and presenters who collectively, through their work, supported the portrayal of people with disabilities in movies, television and New Media. Television writer/producer Normal Lear, who founded the Media Access Awards along with Fern Fields and Norman G. Brooks, was presented with the Lifetime Achievement Award by Geri Jewell, whom Lear cast in the 1980s series The Facts of Life, making her the first actor with cerebral palsy to appear in a TV series. And WGA member George R.R. Martin, a screen/television writer and producer whose epic fantasy novels were adapted for HBO’s series Game of Thrones, was recipient of the 2013 Visionary Award. Other award recipients: Jenni Gold (SAG-AFTRA Disability Awareness Award), for her documentary Cinemability; casting agent Deedee Bradley (Casting Society of America Award), who cast a deaf lead character in the ABC Family series Switched at Birth; producer Bruce Cohen (Producer’s Guild of America’s George Sunga Award), for his exploration of bipolar disorder in Silver Linings Playbook; Breaking Bad actor RJ Mitte (SAG-AFTRA Harold Russell Award), who portrayed a young man with cerebral palsy in the series; and Santina Muha (Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation Scholarship) and Ryan Lane (RJ Mitte Diversity Award).
Despite the contributions of this year’s honorees, the paucity of disabled characters in television and film remains a persistent problem. Although 56 million Americans are living with some kind of a disability, their representation in TV and movies is a paltry 2%. “The number is abysmally small,” notes Allen Rucker, Chairman of the WGAW’s Writers with Disabilities Committee. “For every show featuring a character with a disability that comes on -- The Michael J. Fox Show, Ironside -- another goes off -- Breaking Bad, Ironside. It's like walking in quicksand. Characters with disabilities are still considered an occasional novelty, not an integral part of the TV/film world.”
David Shore Producing Thriller Drama For WGN America
EXCLUSIVE: In a competitive situation, WGN America has landed American Dream, a suspense drama project executive produced by House creator David Shore and produced by Sony TV. Written/co-executive produced by feature scribe Wayne Beach (Murder At 1600), the project, now in development, chronicles the cat-and-mouse game that erupts when a Manhattan homicide cop suspects one of America’s top CEOs of being a killer. The relationship becomes mutually dependent: this CEO who needs psychopathic games to refuel himself personally and professionally, and a cop who exploits the game to make inroads into a world he’s always wanted to inhabit – that of the rich and famous. “The cop shares our culture’s obsession with celebrity, killers and the rich,” Beach said. “It isn’t just about how you catch a killer who makes $83 million a year and plays golf with the president, but what happens when your prey is everything you always wanted to be: rich, untouchable and famous.” Shore said his involvement in the project stems from the draw of “being pulled into a very seductive and thoroughly imagined world with an extremely compelling relationship at its core, very much resonating our fascination with the 1%.” Sony TV-based Shore executive produces with Rick Berg.
The deal for American Dream comes as WGN America is ramping up its original slate under president Matt Cherniss and scripted head Jonathan Wax. The network employs a script-to-series model, greenlighting the scripts it likes to series, as it did with its first two original series: the recently picked up dramas Salem and Manhattan. American Dream marks the fourth sale for Shore and his Shore Z banner in the past few months, including his blockbuster teaming with Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan for the CBS direct-to-series drama Battle Creek. Beach’s feature credits also include The Art Of War and psychological thriller Slow Burn. He most recently adapted Lee Vance’s novel Garden Of Betrayal for Identity Films. He is repped by UTA and Code Management. Shore and his Shore Z are repped by ICM Partners and The Shuman Co. http://www.deadline.com/2013....america

Kal Penn To Co-Star On CBS’ Vince Gilligan/David Shore Series ‘Battle Creek’
By NELLIE ANDREEVA | Tuesday February 18, 2014 @ 1:39pm PST
EXCLUSIVE: House alum Kal Penn is reuniting with hit medical drama’s creator David Shore on Battle Creek. Penn is the first actor cast in the high-profile CBS series from Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan and Shore. The project, from Sony TV, centers on a detective and an FBI agent with very different world views who are teamed up to clean up the semi-mean streets of Battle Creek, MI. Penn will play another local detective who initially has reservations about the newly arrived FBI agent. Penn, repped by Gersh, Industry Entertainment and Michael Fuller, explored multiple pilot offers before setting on Battle Creek because of his relationship with Shore on House where Penn co-starred for two seasons before leaving for a position in the White House. Battle Creek brings him back at CBS where he starred on comedy series We Are Men this past season and previously recurred on How I Met Your Mother. Originally created by Gilligan at CBS in 2002, Battle Creek was tweaked by him and Shore. The two executive produce, with Shore serving as showrunner.
Кэл Пенн что пытается наверстать упущенное. Зря он тогда ушел, был такой перспективный персонаж. Сейчас уже ничего не вернешь, к сожалению. Cause we were never being boring, We were never being bored

Церемония состоялась в Мексике. Из каста Хауса присутствовали Кэт Лингенфельтер, Питер Блэйк, Лиз Фридман, Лиза Эдельштейн и Анна Дудек. Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened ;)
Дэвид Шор сегодня внезапно расщедрился на довольно длительную Q/A-сессию в твиттере по Хаусу (жаль, что без предупреждения). Вопросов и ответов было много и многие из них интересные https://twitter.com/shorez/with_replies

А Хью и Лиза действительно не общаются в жизни после окончания сериала?
Видимых следов общения в сети нет. Они не подписаны друг на друга в твиттере и отмалчиваются на все вопросы фанатов относительно друг друга. Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened ;)
