House, M.D.




Welcome to What's on TV. My blog is about the good and bad, the comedies and thrillers, the hits and misses in television.

The first show I would like to talk about is House, M.D. This medical drama, created by David Shore, is about the unfeeling, sarcastic medical genius Dr. Gregory House. Dr. House is the boss of a team of medical diagnosticians. Their job is to figure out what is wrong with patients that come into the hospital with symptoms that no one else can diagnose. The medical cases that come through the Princeton Plainsboro Teaching Hospital are captivating, remarkable, and sometimes down right bizarre.

Dr. House's character, played by British actor Hugh Laurie, is constantly getting himself into trouble because of his spiteful attitude towards his patients, his team, and especially his boss Dr. Lisa Cuddy. House's personality issues aren't the only defect he has. His damaged leg, due to a misdiagnosis, forces him to walk with a cane making him even more cranky -- especially when he is off his meds.

The show is in the middle of its fifth season with all new episodes on Monday nights on FOX network. Watch full episodes of House, M.D at Fox.com.

What Do I Think? The characters in this show are excellent and the storyline is smart, imaginative, and thought provoking. It is an all around good show. I give it a A.
