House (also called House, M.D.) is an American television medical drama that originally ran on the Fox network for eight seasons, from November 16, 2004 to May 21, 2012. The show's main character is Dr. Gregory House (Hugh Laurie), a pain medication-dependent, unconventional, misanthropic medical genius who leads a team of diagnostic fellows at the fictional Princeton–Plainsboro Teaching Hospital (PPTH) in Princeton, New Jersey. The show's premise originated with Paul Attanasio, while David Shore, who is credited as creator, was primarily responsible for the conception of the title character. The show's executive producers included Shore, Attanasio, Attanasio's business partner and wife Katie Jacobs, and film director Bryan Singer. It was filmed largely in Century City, Los Angeles although the Pilot was filmed in Vancouver, British Columbia. House often clashes with his fellow physicians, including his own diagnostic team, because many of his hypotheses about patients' illnesses are based on subtle or controversial insights. His flouting of hospital rules and procedures frequently leads him into conflict with his boss, hospital administrator and Dean of Medicine Dr. Lisa Cuddy (Lisa Edelstein). House's only true friend is Dr. James Wilson (Robert Sean Leonard), head of the Department of Oncology. During the first three seasons, House's diagnostic team consists of Dr. Robert Chase (Jesse Spencer), a cardiologist, intensivist and surgeon. Dr. Allison Cameron (Jennifer Morrison), an immunologist, and new team member Dr. Eric Foreman (Omar Epps), a neurologist. At the end of Season 3, this team disbands. Rejoined by Foreman, House gradually selects three new team members: Dr. Remy "Thirteen" Hadley (Olivia Wilde) an internist, Dr. Chris Taub (Peter Jacobson), a plastic surgeon, and Dr. Lawrence Kutner (Kal Penn), a specialist in rehabilitative and sports medicine. Chase and Cameron continue to appear in different roles at the hospital until early in Season 6. Cameron then departs the hospital, and Chase returns to the diagnostic team. Thirteen takes a leave of absence for most of Season 7, and her position is filled by third-year medical student Martha M. Masters (Amber Tamblyn). Cuddy and Masters depart before Season 8; Foreman becomes the new dean of medicine, while Dr. Jessica Adams (Odette Annable) and Dr. Chi Park (Charlyne Yi) join House's team. House was among the top 10 shows in the United States from its second through fourth seasons. Distributed to 66 countries, House was the most-watched television program in the world in 2008. The show received numerous awards, including five Primetime Emmy Awards, two Golden Globe Awards, a Peabody Award, and nine People's Choice Awards. On February 8, 2012, Fox announced that the eighth season, then in progress, would be its last. The series finale aired on May 21, 2012, following an hour-long retrospective. In 2011, House, M.D. was the most widely discussed television series on the social media site Facebook.
