Notable Reviews
"If you don't like the show immediately, you're not alone. But watch at least four episodes before you give up, because House is an acquired taste. And once you've got the taste, you'll eat it up."—ReelReel: House Review"It's a rare ability for an actor to be able to deliver a character performance with such snarky sarcasm and still come across as enjoyable."—SlantSlant: House Review

House Season 1 DVD Review
- Blog Critics: House Season 1 DVD Review
- "The show is far more than window dressing to his performance, with strong writing, compelling plots, and intriguing secondary characters."
- Bullz-Eye: House Season 1 DVD Review (3/5)
- "How else to explain this exquisite study in contrasts, in which one of the most compelling, well-acted, brilliantly-written dramas on television is packaged in the DVD equivalent of a brown paper bag? And a dirty, ripped paper bag, at that?"
- Home Theater Info: House Season 1 DVD Review (3.5)
- "Universal has done well with bringing this worthwhile series to DVD. Oddly, the 1.78:1 video is non-anamorphic. Still, the look of this box set is clean with a bright color palette and absolutely no sign of any defect or flaw. The audio is provided in Dolby 5.1. While it is generally very full and rich although somewhat centered in the front, the rear speakers and sub woofer provides a realistic, robust ambience throughout. The musical cues are well presented adding a lot to the show. The extras are lighter than I would have liked. There is a featurette describing the medical basis of some of the cases presented, one on the series' concept, the casting tape of Laurie and a look at the character of Gregory House. If you are tired of the mindless drivel on most television channels pick this up and enjoy a series that returns to quality."
House Season 2 DVD Reviews
- Entertainment Weekly: House Season 2 DVD Review (B+)
- "But mostly, we got more than we could have hoped for from this cold but sturdy House."
- Blog Critics: House Season 2 DVD Review
- "The season two release of House brings the most sublimely misanthropic medical show to DVD in a hugely improved technical package from season one."
- DVDTown.com: House Season 2 DVD Review
- "FOX has been on my naughty list for canceling "Firefly" and "Arrested Development." But, they've been making it up to me by treating "House" so well. The show is intricately written, full of twists, turns, and great characters with just the right amount of humor tossed in for good measure. Now THIS is must-see TV."
House Season 3 DVD Reviews
- Blog Critics: House Season 3 DVD Review
- "So it goes without saying that I highly recommend that you go out and purchase this set (in the lovely red box) to match the blue (Season 1) and orange (Season 2) collections, if you haven't already."
- DVDTown.com: House Season 3 Review
- ""House" is an amazingly compelling and addictive show. As House joneses for his pain pills, I find myself needing my fix of "House." The beauty of DVD is I can sit down and watch every episode without having to wait a week or sit through commercials. "House" is one of the best shows on television and this DVD set is a recommendation of the highest order."
- Bullz-Eye: House Season 3 DVD Review (4/5)
- "It's disappointing that no one from the cast sat down to do any commentaries, but we do get at least one commentary from the show's creative team, show creator and producer David Shore and executive producer Katie Jacobs."
