Major shocker spreading across the Internet about Kal Penn on House. Spoiler this point on!!
On House last night, Dr. Kutner committed suicide as the character was essentially written off the show. FOX has even set up an memorial for Kal Penn’s character Dr. Kutner here. You can even write a memorial message for Dr. Kutner on Facebook here.
So why was Dr. Kutner killed off the show? Entertainment Weekly has a great article on what happened to Dr. Kutner and where Kal Penn is going. Read it here. Essentially, Kal Penn is taking a fat paycut to work at the White House. He was a big Obama supporter during the election. His acting career will be put on hold has he jumps into politics. It’s not entirely clear what Kal Penn will be doing.
We speculate that he may be involved in something related to USAService.org. No doubt Kal Penn’s got major skills from adjunct professor to acting. He’ll probably utilize his Rolodex in Washington like he did at UPenn. We wish him luck in his new endeavors. Guess there will be no Harold and Kumar 3
