House - Season 3 [DVD]

I'd say it was the most memorable but so many of them compete for that! It was extraordinary, amazing and beautiful. As a chronic pain patient I'm infuriated periodically at their apparent ignorance of the difference between addition and tolerance and their tendency to put the cart before the horse despite the evidence. But I'm ranting as well as digressing when I should be howling my praise for the rooftops so I'll get my ladder and megaphone and commence. Oh for goodness' sakes the list is too long! It starts with the writing to give the plot credibility and the characters depth and the writing of 'House' has always been exemplary. Although I've seen them all before I wanted to see this one again for the short piece of piano music that Hugh Laurie plays that House composed while at school and couldn't complete. His patient resolves it and House is visibly moved. Hardly surprising. As the doctor says "it's perfect".

I only watched an handful of House episodes when they first appeared on TV. I'm now making amends by catching up on all of the eight series that were made. This really is a wonderful medical drama. It's well-written, the acting is terrific (especially by Hugh Laurie) and, with each episode, you are guaranteed heart-breaking moments, thought-provoking scenarios and periods of laugh-out-loud comedy. I've particularly enjoyed getting to know the principal characters that are brought to life so brilliantly by the actors. What a great series this has been - I now can't wait to switch off the lights, sit down in my favourite armchair with a mug of coffee and lose myself in series four!

I expected to be feeling a bit jaded by now but the pesky doctor and his friends (or enemies, it isn't easy to tell sometimes) just keep wriggling out of the 'seen it before' swamp and skirting all the predictability landmines. I never saw it before and now I'm hooked. Incidentally, in this season, David Morse turns out to be brilliant (and House's not quite identical twin brother as well).

a brit plays a yank dr and well so much happens in episodes you more study than watch waiting for an episode with APS aka hughes syndrome as I have that..................... further note now been done but wont spoil it and say which !

House Season 3 is entertaining. There is a much needed expansion to the non-medical plot lines, including House's legal struggle. Hugh Laurie is inspired throughout and remains the pivotal character. Can he really be the slightly ridiculous figure who cast his shadow in British comedies like Blackadder and Jeeves and Wooster?Unfortunately, the other characters are grossly underwritten, mere adjuncts to House's savage and uncompromising moods. They stand and fall by their reaction to House. It would be much better if we saw plotlines that do not detract from the style of the show but still add value. I realise that this show does not want to be an ER (more's the pity) or a lesser hospital show, but it can retain its edge with a little more forethought.One big thing that can grate... how many more detective trails can we watch where numerous false diagnosis' are conjured up before wilting away? The medical drama is formulaic and a little jaded, hence the need for plots that branch out. Still, I've enjoyed all three series and will watch the next with anticipation.

Back for a third helping of casual and targeted hate at (in no particular order) race, religion, weight, sexual preferences, drugs, alcohol, geninue and fake medical conditions, sex, not enough sex and many other first world world problems.It isn't that House hates people, it's that he can't understand why someone would like him for him

Hugh Lawrie plays the sarcastic character so well, rather unusual to be able to "inject" humour into what is essentially a programme about sometimes horrific medical conditions.The supporting characters are also excellent and have developed from season 1 into ones that you can relate to. I felt that series 1 was more about the medical conditions rather than developing the characters, but necessary as an introduction to the whole thing.I'm addicted to "House" and look forward to watching season 4

I loved House, such a good series because Hugh Laurie is awesome in the role! Also fabulous supporting actors which make the story so good. I challenge people not to be hooked!
