Summary: 5 Stars
"House, M.D." is now in its sixth season on television, an astonishigly long life for an edgy medical drama featuring a sarcastic, manipulative doctor addicted to pain medication. "Season One" captures the first 22 episodes of the show, plus some nice extras providing background on the series.
Dr. Gregory House (Hugh Laurie) is a brillant diagnostician working at Plainfield Teaching Hospital, where he typically get the very toughest cases to solve. Assisting him are three young doctors (Omar Epps, Jennifer Morrison, and Jesse Spencer), with whom House works his socratic method of identifying a obscure medical condition and fashioning a cure. Invariably, the team is racing the clock to save the patient. House spars endlessly with his boss, medical administrator Dr. Cuddy (Lisa Edelstein) over his lack of manners, his rules-breaking, and his failure to perform clinic hours. House also imposes endlessly on Dr. Wilson (Robert Sean Leonard), his one friend on staff, who is often Watson to House's Sherlock Holmes.
The show succeeds as a medical drama, but the real draw is watching Hugh Laurie walk a knife-edged line as an actor, playing a hughly unlikeable person whom the audience ends up rooting for anyway. The character succeeds in part because the show keeps up the humor, but especially because Laurie allows us to see the inherent good in House, buried beneath all the bad behavior. "House, M.D.: Season One" is very highly recommended to fans of the show and to those viewers who came along later and want to find out how it was, in the beginning.

One of the best series i've seen...Im looking forward to getting all the seasons as soon as possible, and the service from amazon was perfect, delivery right in time.DVD Review: An essential season - as they all have been
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a show that hit the starting gate running at full speed and quickly found its pace - so all seasons of House MD so far are worth getting - even Season One - many shows that are successful still have fairly weak season one box sets but House MD is not one of them. I write this brief review to those who already love House and wonder what storylines are on which season. Season One hit the ground running - even the pilot is good. Much of the first season was involved in the unusual medical cases that was the premise for the series - but this first season was also the first case of "House vs Authority" as Vogler buys his way into the scheme of things with big bucks and House fights back in great style (an all time classic is here as House plays along with the Who in his mind as Vogler walks in and cuts the music off)- again I write this with the hope it will be helpful to those that want to find which season the great House story lines were written. Of all of the seasons - some of House's funniest ER sessions are here - this season had the Mob episode and the "Three Stories" episode with House teaching a class to avoid ER duty and was one of the first episodes to go into the more bizarre story lines - man bitten by rattlesnake or not etc the class constantly killing their patient- the team in bizarre situations in House's mind- on the negative side - bonus material is so-so - this season has double sided DVDs which are annoying - no informative booklet or whatnot so packaging gets a C- but I still give it 5 stars because this is a series that has not lost its way or jumped the shark yet (flirted with it when they tried the Cuddy romance in season 5 but that's another story - anyway it WAS the Vicodin). Hugh Laurie is a riot and if you can tolerate British humor (I say this with a smile) his BBC comedy stuff is also worth an Amazon search and is a great indicator of how well he can adapt his style from near slapstick British comedy to drama. Highly recommend all seasons of House MD.
Description of House, M.D. - Season One
Go deeper into the medical mysteries of House, TV's most compelling new drama, as all 22 Season One episodes and exclusive bonus features come to DVD! Hugh Laurie stars as the brilliant, but sarcastic Dr. Gregory House, a maverick physician who is devoid of bedside manner. While his behavior can border on antisocial, Dr. House thrives on the challenge of solving the medical puzzles that other doctors give up on. Together with his hand-picked team of young medical experts, he'll do whatever it takes in the race against the clock to solve the case. Check out each gripping episode featuring some of TV's hottest guest stars, including Carmen Electra, Chi McBride, Scott Foley and Sela Ward. It's the intriguing new series TV Guide's Matt Roush hails as "the uncommon cure for the common medical drama."He pops pills, watches soaps, and always, always says what's on his mind. He's Dr. Gregory House (Emmy nominee Hugh Laurie, Blackadder). Producers David Shore, Bryan Singer, Katie Jacobs, and Paul Attanasio haven't rewritten the hospital drama--at heart, it's a cross between St. Elsewhere, ER, and C.S.I.--but they've infused a moribund genre with new life and created one of TV's most compelling characters. More than any previous medical procedural, it resembles Attanasio's underrated Gideon's Crossing, but House is lighter on its feet. As fascinating as he is, the show wouldn't work as well if it were all House all the time (that would be like Sherlock Holmes without Watson or Moriarty). Fortunately, he's joined by an intriguing cast of characters, portrayed by a combination of experienced vets (Omar Epps, Lisa Edelstein, Tony winner Robert Sean Leonard) and new faces (Jennifer Morrison, Jesse Spencer). Aside from the complicated cases they tackle each week, the sparks really fly when House's brilliant, if na?ve charges are put to the test--and as the head of a teaching hospital, it's his job to test them (although his tough love approach is constantly landing him in hot water with Edelstein's administrator). From the first episode, House attracted a talented array of guests, including Robin Tunney ("Pilot"), Joe Morton ("Role Model"), and Patrick Bauchau ("Cursed") as Spencer's father. In addition, Chi McBride and Sela Ward appear frequently (with Ward returning for the second season). Viewers who first watched these 22 episodes on Fox will be gratified to note that the music has survived the transition to disc, such as the Rolling Stones' "You Can't Always Get What You Want," as featured in both the pilot and season finale ("Honeymoon"). The only apparent omission is the credit theme (Massive Attack's "Teardrop") from the pilot. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
