House – Television Series Review

Genre – Medical Mystery, Comedy, Drama
Cast – Hugh Laurie, Lisa Edelstein, Omar Epps, Jesse Spencer, Jennifer Morrison, Robert Sean Leonard, Olivia Wilde.

House TV series is a lighthearted medical drama that many viewers, including me find tough to ignore. This series usually revolves around the diagnosis of different patients. When they have tried and tested every place possible in vain, House is where the patients eventually turn up. The unique antics by the central character, Dr. Gregory House pulls off are mind-boggling.

A little known fact is that House series has earned critical acclaim as well as enjoys a high viewership. Lisa Edelstein proved to create an impact on Bryan Singer, the executive producer, on a show called ‘The West Wing’ and influenced his decision in casting her. The exceptional approach that Dr. Lisa Cuddy, Dr. Eric Foreman, Dr. Robert Chase, Dr. James Wilson and Dr. Allison Cameron take on their assignments is something worth taking a look at. There is a peculiar sense of sarcasm to the tone of the series. In order to enjoy that you must be a regular viewer of all House episodes.

IF you look harder into House’s character, you will notice a strong resemblance to the famously known, Sherlock Holmes. Another breath taking fact is that House was the most watched TV serial in the entire world in 2008! Incredible, isn’t it? So I would say there are many more reasons to watch this medical drama that also is a winner of three prime time Golden Globe Awards and two Emmy Awards.
