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

 Better than before October 6, 2008
The more you watch it, the more you are addicted!!! Can't wait for season 5 to come out!!!
Continues To Deliver October 6, 2008
House M.D. season 4 is just as gripping as the first three seasons. The introduction of a multitude of new characters keeps the storylines fresh while never straying from the central issues of medical ethics. Hugh Laurie portrays the misanthropic House flawlessly. A must buy for anyone who enjoyed the other seasons.
House at his best. October 5, 2008
This is simply another great season of the best show on television. House must hire a new team of doctors and he does it as only he could, in a survivor stlye game he uses to test his apppicants. Great medical mystries also included leading up to possibly the best two-part season finale of the show (House's head and Wilson's heart). Dont miss another great performance from Hugh Laurie and cast in House...
Great Characters, Great Season - Best Show On Television October 3, 2008
I have all 4 seasons available and season 4 is great. I admit I wasn't all that into it at first but as the season progresses it gets better and better. The finale is amazing. I've read people complain that the cases get too far-fetched but seriously, how many of us even remember what the diagnosis is 5 minutes after the show ends? The characters are the best on television period. If you like the show don't even consider the bad reviews because you'll love season 4. The only thing that disappointed me was the short season because of the writer's strike.
House ROCKS! September 30, 2008
I've been a big fan of House since the first season and have all of the seasons on dvd. Really mind-stimulating and I hope the show lasts another 10 years!
