    Some of House's callousness is an act, and sometimes the show lets the act go too far. But one of the series' primary strengths is the way the writers and the star keep us guessing as to where that act ends and reality begins.

    It's wonderful stuff, and we all seem to be on a voyage of discovery.

    House seems a little off when it returns for its fifth season. My diagnosis: A chemistry imbalance.

    This show is truly always interesting and witty, and often brilliant. Hugh Laurie has created such a captivating persona its's extremely peculiar to watch Blackadder now… Expand

    Even though we're in the 5th Season, the ingredients of humor, drama and suspense are still there.
