'''''House''''' is an [[United States|American]] [[medicine|medical]] television [[drama]]. It was created by David Shore in 2004 and airs on FOX. Now in its sixth year on primetime television, ''House'' M.D. has [[wikt:fan|fan]]s all over the [[world]]. It is set at the fictional Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital in [[New Jersey]]. The show's main character, Doctor Gregory House is a grumpy, sarcastic man who hates having to deal with his patients. Even though he spends a lot of his time insulting his patients and co-workers, or watching TV in his office, Dr. House always manages to [[cure]] his patients with his great medical intelligence.
== Layout ==
Nearly all [[episode]]s of ''House'' follow the same pattern: we see the events that come before the [[wikt:patient|patient]] being taken to the [[hospital]], then House and his [[colleague]]s spend a lot of time doing tests and coming up with different ideas for what the problem is. At the very end, House comes up with the [[:wikt:answer|answer]], generally through [[insight|epiphanies]], and usually the patient recovers.
== Main characters ==
* [[Hugh Laurie]] as '''Dr. Gregory House:''' The show's main character, an expert in diagnostic [[medicine]]. He is often very rude, sarcastic and enjoys teasing other people. Even so, he is an excellent [[Medical doctor|doctor]] and always comes up with the right solution to the show's medical problems before anyone else. Head of the Department of Diagnostic Medicine.
* [[Lisa Edelstein]] as '''Dr. Lisa Cuddy:''' She is in charge of medicine at Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital, she is an endocrinologist (thyroid specialist). She often has to deal with House's rudeness and sometimes illegal actions. Usually, she is very patient with Dr. House because she knows he is the best doctor at her hospital.
* [[Robert Sean Leonard]] as '''Dr. James Wilson:''' An expert in [[cancer]] (oncologist) and Dr. House's only real friend. He even tried to protect House's job, and almost got fired himself. He has been [[marriage|married]] a couple of times and is [[Judaism|Jewish]].
* [[Omar Epps]] as '''Dr. Eric Foreman:''' A member of House's diagnostic medicine team. He is an expert in the human [[brain]] (neurologist). Dr. Foreman is [[African-American|black]], and House sometimes makes racist comments about him, but Dr. Foreman usually does not get angry about it. Played by Omar Epps.
* [[Jennifer Morrison]] as '''Dr. Allison Cameron:''' A member of House's diagnostic medicine team. She is an expert in the human [[immune system]] (immunologist). Considered the nicest on the team, she often argues with House about right and wrong. Played by Jennifer Morrison.
* [[Jesse Spencer]] as '''Dr. Robert Chase:''' A member of House's diagnostic medicine team. He is an expert in intensive care. Dr. Chase is [[Australian]], and Dr. House often teases him about his [[accent]] or pretends to think he is actually [[British]]. Played by Jesse Spencer.
* [[Olivia Wilde]] as '''Dr. Remy "Thirteen" Hadley: ''' A member of House's team that has Huntington's disease. She dated Foreman for a series and took part in his clinical trials.
* [[Peter Jacobson]] as '''Dr. Chris Taub:''' A member of House's team that was formerly a plastic surgeon.
