House, M.D.: Season 6 [Blu-ray]

Great series. Season six is just as good as the previous seasons.

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.

The medical always stood in the middle of the acting.Cases got more and more complicated and House, the unique genius finally solve the puzzle.This was so good, that a real doctor from a university is using the House cases to teach students in diagnostic medicine.He said, that even he as an experienced doctor need to look up some details in medicine library.All is accurate. Only a little dramatic is added in finding the solution.So much about the quality of medicine of the series.This is not changing in the actual 6. season.It is getting more believable, because not all patients could be saved.But this fits in perfectly. It is not something like "OK, this must happen one time."Compliments to the authors.The medicine could not be raised to a new level. It was always on the highest level.But the personalities and interaction could still be developed. And this room was used perfectly.House started in the mental clinic, getting rid of his illusions and addiction.Another play of House? No. He found a smart counterpart in the head of this clinic, actually convincing him to go through it, facing his problems.Brilliant acting and interesting interaction.Back on work the new personal interaction take shape.House is living together with Wilson and you see a real friendship. But House is not selling his soul. He is only using his abilities in a creative, not destructive way. Really fun to watch.The medicine cases getting deeper, focussing also on the human behind.A highlight is an african dictator, played perfectly by James Earl Jones, putting Chase is a serious personal dilemma.He know he should treat someone who is guilty of genocide.Every character is gaining. You get to know them better, watch them growing personally. Not a minute boring.The "competition" is won by House. But in a photo finish from my point of view.Until at the final episode House make the biggest jump. Best episode I ever saw. No telling: Watch it!Every episode has something: Drama, fun, interesting background, interesting medicine cases. I just start over and watching them all again!Best season? Easily said, but only true if you know the other seasons too.Clear recommendation.

The series is still the most edgeiest because it didn't care of what other thought about it'This is art at its most entertaining '.

I have been watching this show since I was a teenager with my mom and we both love it. So I had to get the box set to have in the house.
