He pops pills, watches soaps, and always, always says what's on his mind. He's Dr. Gregory House (Emmy nominee Hugh Laurie, Blackadder). Producers David Shore, Bryan Singer, Katie Jacobs, and Paul Attanasio haven't rewritten the hospital drama--at heart, it's a cross between St. Elsewhere, ER, and C.S.I.--but they've infused a moribund genre with new life and created one of TV's most compelling characters. More than any previous medical procedural, it resembles Attanasio's underrated Gideon's Crossing, but House is lighter on its feet. As fascinating as he is, the show wouldn't work as well if it were all House all the time (that would be like Sherlock Holmes without Watson or Moriarty). Fortunately, he's joined by an intriguing cast of characters, portrayed by a combination of experienced vets (Omar Epps, Lisa Edelstein, Tony winner Robert Sean Leonard) and new faces (Jennifer Morrison, Jesse Spencer). Aside from the complicated cases they tackle each week, the sparks really fly when House's brilliant, if naive charges are put to the test--and as the head of a teaching hospital, it's his job to test them (although his tough love approach is constantly landing him in hot water with Edelstein's administrator). From the first episode, House attracted a talented array of guests, including Robin Tunney ("Pilot"), Joe Morton ("Role Model"), and Patrick Bauchau ("Cursed") as Spencer's father. In addition, Chi McBride and Sela Ward appear frequently (with Ward returning for the second season). Viewers who first watched these 22 episodes on Fox will be gratified to note that the music has survived the transition to disc, such as the Rolling Stones' "You Can't Always Get What You Want," as featured in both the pilot and season finale ("Honeymoon"). The only apparent omission is the credit theme (Massive Attack's "Teardrop") from the pilot. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

 Great show but BSwidescreen is annoying November 16, 2008
RadioRon (Vancouver)
I'm happy to watch these DVDs because I enjoy the show immensely, but I've reduced my rating in protest of what I call BSWidescreen, where they have delivered a letterboxed 4:3 image rather than an anamorphic widescreen disc. To label the product "widescreen" is BS and a ripoff. Sure, we can fill our screen up by using the ZOOM mode, but then we are watching a lower resolution picture and the top and bottom picture clipping will be imperfect on some TVs. Too bad, since the show is otherwise good.
 Great series, great price! October 24, 2008
Marta (Medford, OR)
My son and I are House addicts. For his birthday I bought him the first season...so I can watch it, too! Great price! Great gift!
Fabulous.... October 24, 2008

House, M.D. - Season One October 22, 2008
S. Y. Altman (Keystone Heights, FL USA)
Season One, House introduces you to this doctor who is in "left field" accourding to standands. He is intense and devoted to his work though his work ethics at time are quiestionable. His co-workers love, hate, admire, and highly respect him as you will. I dare you to watch this and not fall in love with 'House, M.D.' and want more.
Pleased October 21, 2008
William A. Webersinn (New Jersey, USA)
Since I had never seen the first season of this sitcom, purchasing this CD helped me catch up on what I had missed. It is more enjoyable watching this CD without commercial interuptions.
I would recommend this CD to any House fans.
It will be a joy to review this series in future years.
A great way to catch up on shows that were missed.
