Apparently, if you are a fan of House, and you want to see House and Cuddy get together, you are a "Huddy" fan. Not sure if this actually came from fans or from Fox marketing, but tonight's episode is being marketed specifically to the Huddy crew. There's even a promo spot on the Fox site that addresses that crowd by name, and shows titillating images of House and Cuddy together at the doorstep, Cuddy asking, "You want to kiss me, don't you?" House replies, "I always want to kiss you." This is cut with images of House and Cuddy shedding some clothing and pawing at each other.

Considering how much tension this kind of storyline brings up (think of how many people still remember Moonlighting for that reason alone, and even bring the show up whenever there is sexual or romantic tension between characters), you'd be expecting a lot to think that Lisa Edelstein (who plays Cuddy), on a conference call with reporters Friday, would give away too much. In fact, given all of the twists and turns this season has given us, you might expect her to have a little misdirection handy for when the inevitable questions come up.
