#4 is, I think, the real reason why I have to go with House.
Plus, House is extraordinary, not just as a person but as a character. There are plenty of characters like Josh. (There's one in every Sorkin show, as a matter of fact.) And don't get me wrong - Josh is awesome. I love Josh. But he's the type of character that you can love unabashedly, because even the faults are supposed to be charming. House is the type of character whose faults are not meant to be charming in the least, and yet I cannot help but love House, almost in spite of myself. And certainly in spite of him. Josh not-so-secretly wants everyone love him. House acts like he could care less whether anyone would cross the street to save his life, and yet super-secretly, deep down, he totally does care about the good opinions of a few.
I...I think I just convinced myself that House is more complicated than Josh.
