While Hugh Laurie did a great job as Bertie Wooster, don't forget his wonderful work on the Black Adder series. He is a great actor.

Hugh Laurie is great-- too bad the author didn't know much about his work with Rowan Atkinson and Rik Mayall (and yes, Stephen Frye) in the Blackadder series.

He was fabulous as the Prince Regent.

Some of his work for the BBC has aired on American television ("Jeeves and Wooster" ran on PBS' "Masterpiece Theater" in the early 1990s), but he may be best known for roles in films ranging from "Sense and Sensibility" to "The Man in the Iron Mask" to "Stuart Little."

I can't believe they left out Black Adder.

Hugh Laurie.

I caught an ep once. Thought it and Laurie were pretty good.

The addition of Sela Ward (multiple emmy winner and MILF extraordinaire) will make next season intersting - both visually and dramatically!

House has become my second best show just behind NCIS. I caught on half way thru last season. I'm even watching the rerun episodes that I already have seen.

But what am I gonna do about NCIS now that Sasha Alexandra's character took one between the eyes?????

It has been many years since I have watched a network drama regularly due to the overkill of social messages embedded within. But this show is absolutely wonderful! My wife and I have watched faithfully since the beginning of 2005 and are even watching the reruns over the summer. Hugh Laurie does an outstanding job of being Dr Gregory House. His American accent is better than most Americans! If you hate political correctness, you will love Dr House!

I enjoy the show too. Laurie has the character nailed...not nice, but what is needed.

They are pretty on the money with the medical aspects of things too. (No, I'm not a Dr, but I do drive by 2 Holiday Inns every day to work).

I don't watch network TV at all, but my wife said that when she first watched this, she couldn't stand this guy, but as she kept with it, she really likes this show.

I saw an episode a while back. I was impressed with the acting and the clever medical mystery plot. I wasn't impressed with the resolution, however. The story was about a girl athlete whose illness was revealed to be triggered by a pregnancy. The situation was resolved with an abortion.

I doubt I'll ever be a regular viewer.

I haven't seen a full episode yet, but I've liked what I've seen. Even if he doesn't sound like Prince George. (Or just George, in the later series.)

I love "The Black Adder" in its many forms. It's also where I first saw Robby Coltrane.

The author is genuflecting because he's British.

Good grief.

It's make believe.

This is a great show, with a good ensemble cast and terrific writers.

It rates right up there with "Monk" on my chart.

Very good show- my friend turned me on to it last year. Just a question- have they ever disclosed how House got his limp?

We never miss this program. Was recommended by a friend in the medical field and well worth the watch.
