Title says it all, this is a great show and the writers continue to amaze me but WTF do we need with 13 (who seems to suddenly be straight and not bisexual anymore) she adds ZERO to this show. I lump her in with Dexter’s sister/RL wife as someone who must have a relative on the staff to still be on the show since they detract from what you came to see.

Firstly, this is not a review, it is a message of thanks to NBC/Universal for finally releasing HOUSE M.D. on the Blu-ray Disc format. I left a highly unpopular “review” on the Season 5 DVD page complaining about the lack of a full 1080p version of the show; perhaps someone at NBC/Universal took those comments to heart, so if they are reading this page, thank you for putting one of my favorite shows on the best quality format available. I have already pre-ordered my copy, and I will augment this post with a review/comments about the release when I receive and go through my copy.

Anyone who cares about great writing – hopefully, we’ve all gotten over the loss of Aaron Sorkin for The West Wing – well, okay, nobody’s reached his level – but I continue to be fascinated by this character. Thanks to the writers for delivering intricate character pieces within the “okay, first scene, somebody’s going to contract a mysterious illness right NOW’ basic setup – this show could so easily have sunk to one-trick pony oblivion but for the writing and the amazing acting from Hugh Laurie. If you’ve ever seen him on a talk show and been surprised at his all-too-humble personality, you’re not alone. He transforms himself into this tortured, brilliant, loving and lovable character. He’s acerbic. Brilliant. Sarcastic. Brutally truthful. Hilarious (but you never laugh at this character, only with him). And yes, tortured – by the pain in his leg and, of course, his heart. As I look over the episodes from this season, I’m thinking of one more reason to give it my highest recommendation: if you or anyone you know ever goes into therapy, watch this season. I’ve never seen such a terrific depiction of what therapy is at its best. Ever. And I’ve had many therapists, two of whom had the ability to make me see my world from a different angle, with different eyes. That’s a pitifully inadequate description, so buy this season of House and measure any therapy against what you see in this television show. It really is superlative TV.

Pre-ordering highly anticipated DVD’s can be harmful to your financial health. With the current price matching between retailers and e-tailers the price is likely to drop drastically a few days after release. Case in point: “Mad Men” season 3, pre-odered by me from Amazon for $28.99 had dropped to $17.99 in a price match with Target before my DVD’s had even arrived.
