For Dr. Gregory House (Hugh Laurie), there's nothing like a good, tension-filled competition to pick his new team of doctors when his old trio of Chase (Jesse Spencer), Cameron (Jennifer Morrison) and Foreman (Omar Epps) leave his fold. Among the 40 newbies vying to earn the coveted spots in the fourth season of House, M.D. are Dr. Lawrence Kutner (Kal Penn, the Harold & Kumar films), Dr. Chris Taub (Peter Jacobson, Transformers) and Dr., uh, Thirteen (Olivia Wilde, The O.C.). Taking a cue from Flavor Flav, House dubs the latter with that nickname simply because he can. Though frequently politically incorrect, House is almost always spot on when it comes to diagnosing rare diseases and ailments. His boss Cuddy (Lisa Edelstein) puts up with his unorthodox quirks, which include antagonizing patients, berating his colleagues, and being an overall pain in the butt, because he's brilliant. The addition of the new doctors adds a bit of chaos early on. But once the contingent is whittled away to the select few, the storylines grow stronger and the chemistry between the old and new cast members gels. Originally shown during the 2007-2008 television season, House aired only 16--rather than its usual 24--episodes, due to the Writers Guild strike. Though a bit of momentum is lost in the last third of the season, the writers do an admirable job of piecing together loose ends without sacrificing plot or structure. In a nice homage to the Prescription Passion, the General Hospital-esque soap opera he loves, House at one point is afflicted with amnesia. The humorous aspect of the story is offset by urgency as he tries to remember what needs to be done to save a patient. On a separate episode, House kidnaps the star of the daytime drama (played by Sex and the City hunk Jason Lewis) because he's convinced the actor is dying. The season finale is heartbreaking, as one of House's 40 candidates is in a life-and-death situation that even the good doctor may not be able to cure. --Jae-Ha Kim

 If You Dig House.. February 2, 2010
G. Andersen
..there's no way you can go wrong with this box set. My girlfriend lured me into the world of House around the time the second season was airing. She was, and is, fanatical about this show. This purchase was a gift to her, as she collects all available House seasons. This is the kind of show that is never boring to re-watch (especially if you are a fan). If you are a fan of the House series, you don't need me to tell you how good the show is, in all aspects. All I can do is encourage you to pick up this season (and all the previous one's) and know that you will never be bored. A great House episode/season is only a disc away.
Great service January 30, 2010

I bought this item for my daughter and I as a Christmas gift. We love House. We put the 1st disk in and it will not work, All geared up to watch and the let down. Disk is too scratched to play.

Maria J. Kuhn (Michigan USA)
House is awesome. I own every box set. I have them on order through amazon before they even hit the shelves. My whole family are hudge fans of the show. Its from serious to funny to drama to suspense all in the same show. Great also to learn about the human body and diseases and sicknesses that are for real and out there in the world. Hue Laurie is amazing. I cant wait for the new season to start on monday. :) Maria
