Go deeper into the medical mysteries of House, TV's most compelling new drama, as all 22 Season One episodes and exclusive bonus features come to DVD! Hugh Laurie stars as the brilliant, but sarcastic Dr. Gregory House, a maverick physician who is devoid of bedside manner. While his behavior can border on antisocial, Dr. House thrives on the challenge of solving the medical puzzles that other doctors give up on. Together with his hand-picked team of young medical experts, he'll do whatever it takes in the race against the clock to solve the case. Check out each gripping episode featuring some of TV's hottest guest stars, including Carmen Electra, Chi McBride, Scott Foley and Sela Ward. It's the intriguing new series TV Guide's Matt Roush hails as "the uncommon cure for the common medical drama."

Worth It! , November, 25, 2008

It's nice to see them in order, watching the development of each character. Extras, commentary nice adds.

 

Hugh Laurie Is Wonderful , November, 24, 2008

House is not a doctor you want for his bedside manner, but want for his knowledge. Hugh Laurie is perfect as the brilliant, yet very mercurial and socially hampered, House.

Like Law & Order, each episode starts with a teaser of what is happening and there are often some great twists right from the beginning, what you expect to happen to start the show may not be what you think.

Surrounded by a great supporting cast, both as actors and as characters to House, the medical mysteries are engrossing as they work to find cures for the uncurable and unknown. One of the better written shows on television and not your standard medical drama.

Highly recommended.

 

Great show but BSwidescreen is annoying , November, 16, 2008

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.
