Random Trivia For This Title:

  • Hugh Laurie's own dad was a doctor, and he feels a twinge of guilt at "being paid more to become a fake version of my own father".
  • Hugh Laurie auditioned for the part of Dr. House via video shot in a hotel bathroom in Namibia, where he was shooting the film Flight of the Phoenix. "It was the only place with enough light," the actor claimed.
  • Hugh Laurie was reportedly earning $50,000 per episode in season one, which dramatically increased to $700,000 per episode in season eight.
  • During Hugh Laurie's audition, David Shore says that Bryan Singer, one of the executive producers, said, "See, this is what I want: an American guy." Singer was completely unaware of the fact that Laurie is English.
  • The address on the front of House's residence is "221B". Sherlock Holmes lived at 221B Baker Street, and House uses Holmesian deductive techniques to diagnose his patients' problems.
  • Hugh Laurie often forgets that House is single. At the beginning of some scenes, his wedding ring is on his left hand, but usually by the end of the scene, it's back on his right.
  • For the first season, Fox insisted that House must have some kind of enemy or someone telling him he couldn't behave like that. David Shore was hesitant about the idea, but ended up creating Chi McBride's character, Edward Vogler, but stating from the beginning that he was only going to be in five episodes, and then he would leave the show.
