The House MD Season 1 DVD set collects all 22 episodes of the Fox medical drama's first season, which aired from November 16, 2004 to May 24, 2005. Hugh Laurie stars as Dr. Gregory House, a brilliant but abrasive diagnostician who takes on the cases other doctors cannot solve.
This listing is the six-disc widescreen edition released for Region 1 on February 10, 2009, so it plays in standard US and Canadian DVD players as well as Blu-ray players.
House heads the Department of Diagnostic Medicine at the fictional Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital in New Jersey. An infarction in his right thigh muscle left him walking with a cane and dependent on Vicodin, and his bedside manner is famously blunt.
His original team is neurologist Eric Foreman (Omar Epps), intensivist Robert Chase (Jesse Spencer) and immunologist Allison Cameron (Jennifer Morrison). Lisa Edelstein plays Lisa Cuddy, the dean of medicine and House's boss, and Robert Sean Leonard plays oncologist James Wilson, House's only true friend. The character is loosely inspired by Sherlock Holmes.
In House M.D. Season One, billionaire Edward Vogler (Chi McBride) donates 100 million dollars to the hospital, becomes board chairman and orders House to fire one of his team. Sela Ward appears as Stacy Warner, House's former girlfriend, in the final two episodes. Other episodes include "Detox", "Damned If You Do", "Histories" and "Babies & Bathwater".
Season 1 first came to DVD in August 2005 on three double-sided discs. This later edition spreads the episodes across six single-sided discs in widescreen, a convenient way to revisit the show.
Creator David Shore won a 2005 Primetime Emmy for writing, and the series earned a Peabody Award the same year. Owning the season on disc means every case is ready to play any time, with no streaming subscription needed.

Finally! Season One in Widescreen
This purchase was made because the original Season One House DVD set, which I purchased as soon as it came out in 2005, was not offered in widescreen. Universal/Fox have finally remedied this and all episodes can now be enjoyed in widescreen format; however, the pilot still has odd color values because it was filmed in black and white and partially colorized later.
One of the most captivating shows to air on television, its first six seasons are especially gripping because the misanthropic nature of the main character (thank you Hugh Laurie). I can add nothing that other reviewers haven’s already said except that it is in my opinion one of the best shows to ever appear on network television-EVER!

A True Original – This Will Change Who You Are
Without a doubt, the best medical drama ever on television, or even on film. It skillfully combines precision and unusual diagnostic medicine with the Human Equation. Other medical “shows” typically neglect the medical aspect, and focus on the soap opera love interests of the hospital staff; but House delivers Medical School level academics, along with the drama seen in only the best of literature – the unexpected, realistic, and non-linear events we all have in our lives, rather than the mundane writing of hacks who are pandering to what the TV executives think will sell the products of their advertisers. House is tantamount to The Sopranos, in its approach and methodology, and the true swings from the gritty to anguish and from transient humor back to despair, rarely – if ever – seen in the media, yet ever present in the daily reality of life. House makes the so-called “Reality Shows” look stupider and more contrived than they actually are. House hinges somewhere between a documentary and a true masterpiece of the art of film. This is not a “must see,’ or a “summer blockbuster,” but a treasure that will reside in the archives of the consciousness of all who embrace it.

Love house 🙂
I have decided to start getting all my favorite tv shows on dvd i found house season 1 for a very good price i couldn’t pass it up!!! It arrived earlier than i expected so i was beyond happy. When i opened the package there was a note in there saying every house needs a lamp and it had a cutout lamp with it. It put a smile on my face that was a very cute idea.
