House seems different than most Sherlock Holmes adaptations/homages on TV. Did you feel pressure to take elements from those stories as the seasons went on, or did you just take the name, the Wilson relationship, the superiority and the substance abuse, and tell your own story?

Hey guys!

Mr. Scheer, I recently did background on The League, and I noticed you have a lot of freedom to improvise. As an actor near the beginning of his career, I'd love to hear from both of you about this process as compared to improv on stage, which I'm a little more familiar with.

For on-camera improvising, are you mostly ad-libbing, or do you ever get to actually shape the scene and take it in a new direction? Is that too complicated for continuity/hurting writers' feelings?

Do you prepare for on-camera improv beyond the basic actors' work of analyzing & memorizing? If so, I'd love to know how. Do you just bring the playfulness and attentiveness necessary for stage improv, or do you analyze the script ahead of time and think of different ways the scene might go or things your character might do?

Thanks for doing this AMA guys! I'd love to hear both of your thoughts on this!
