Medical drama starring Hugh Laurie as the stony-faced MD, Dr Gregory House - who, although very well qualified, is completely devoid of any bedside manner. Despite being difficult to get along with, Dr House is often the only one who can solve medical cases that have other doctors baffled. (Universal Pictures UK)

House M.D. (2004) 

English Tragicomic life cynicism and dry sarcasm meet within a brilliantly pragmatic doctor, who may at first glance see his patients mainly as objects of amusing scrutiny, but underneath all that black-humored veneer lies an emotionally crippled, but at his innermost core, good-hearted man. With his charismatic appearance as the unshaven and limping doctor, Hugh Laurie deservedly garners all the accolades and recognition. However, it would be unfair to leave out the rest of his teammates/opponents, the most notable of whom is Lisa Edelstein as the hospital director Dr. Lisa Cuddy, who has to keep officially apologizing to that the madman. The concept of episodes that are not connected does not bother me much, nor surprisingly does the series get boring. Although some of the episodes are lower in quality than the overall average, it is impossible not to love this series. If only for the wonderful life philosophy that "everyone lies!" ()
