Reviews and thoughts on the iconic TV Show, starring the incredible Hugh Laurie as the irascible, brilliant and ethically dubious Doctor Gregory House.
As big a fan of the House MD show I am, let me start off with the disclaimer that I consider this to be one of the worst ever episodes of House MD to come on air. EVER!
