The House MD Season 6 DVD set holds all 22 episodes of the medical drama's sixth season, which aired on Fox from September 21, 2009 to May 17, 2010. Hugh Laurie returns as Dr. Gregory House, starting the season far from Princeton-Plainsboro as he tries to get his life and his medical license back.
This is the five-disc Region 1 set released on August 31, 2010, so it plays in standard US and Canadian DVD players as well as Blu-ray players. Episodes are presented in 1.78:1 widescreen with Dolby Digital 5.1 sound.
The season opens with "Broken", in which House checks into Mayfield Psychiatric Hospital to detox from Vicodin. He first tries to outsmart the staff before accepting treatment, and Dr. Darryl Nolan, played by Andre Braugher, agrees to support reinstating House's license only if he keeps up his therapy.
At Princeton-Plainsboro, Omar Epps, Jesse Spencer, Peter Jacobson and Olivia Wilde return as Foreman, Chase, Taub and Thirteen. Lisa Edelstein plays Cuddy, the dean of medicine, and Robert Sean Leonard plays Wilson, House's closest friend.
Guest stars in House M.D. Season Six include James Earl Jones in "The Tyrant", Lin-Manuel Miranda as Alvie, Franka Potente, Laura Prepon and David Strathairn. Other episodes include "Epic Fail", "Lockdown" and "Knight Fall".
Season 6 was also the first season of the show released on Blu-ray, but this DVD edition keeps the full set of extras in a compact five-disc package.

House MD, still a great show, now looking awesome in HD!
First a few updates on the product description… it is not 1 disc they are 5 running for over 14 hours (I saw a review complaining about this being 1 disc running 98 minutes).
Now, I believe there is no need to remind that house is probably the best show on TV. I own seasons 1-6 and all of them are great. House is the kind of person you “hate to love”, but cant help it. His sarcasm and genius are just great. But if there are any doubts, just research about the many nominations, and awards Hugh Laurie and the rest of the team has earned for the show.
About the Blu-ray them selves. They look AWESOME.I own Lie to me* season 1 on blu-ray, there was not much difference between it and my House DVDs (upscaled by my PS3). But House season 6 looks just great. It truly allows you to experience HD as the episodes are in 1080P. Besides the great looks, they include some really cool extras… Ever wondered about all those I-have-never-heard-before-diseases that are mentioned throughout the series? Well wonder no more (lol). One of the bonus features of the BD is that episodes have a PIP feature that explains the diseases mentioned, as they are being presented on the show.
To make it short the show gets a 100. The package gets a 98. (I will not hide the fact that getting discs 1-4 out of the box is not what we are used to with other DVD an Blu-ray packages, so kind of complicated).
Must have!

Smartest Show on TV
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.

Better than season 4, not as good as 5
First let me say that I am a huge fan of this show and especially Hugh Laurie (loved Jeeves & Wooster). I think he is one of the best actors on television and is the reason why this show is such a hit.
Here are my insights: the first episode is brilliant! House in the asylum to get off the pain killers and deal with the hallucinations. Now, it is great but is in no way based on any fragment of reality. This is television, and one must understand the nature of artistic license. Yes they make you stick your tongue out after taking your medicine to make sure you swallowed it. Yes they escort people to phones and monitor patients around the clock. Yes they have alarms on most doors. No, House would not have been able to drive out (their would undoubtedly be a gate and guard). But the episode is not about the inner workings of an asylum, but about House progressing as a character.
Now once the show gets back on track is where it falls short. Season 5 had its ups and downs but overall had good drama and good medical mysteries. It seems they are bored with the interesting yet realistic cases from before and coming up with crazier and crazier story lines. Still entertaining.
What I don’t like is how Wilson takes a backseat in this season. Like Murray in Flight of the Conchords, Wilson is the glue that holds the show together. Where seasons 1 and 2 excelled was in the play between House, Wilson, and Cuddy. Now there is a relationship starting, and it seems to be going the Grey’s Anatomy direction.
Still the cases are interesting, and they don’t have the horrid American Idol type competition for the ‘America’s next top Princeton Plainsborough Teaching Hospital Diagnostic Medicine Department Fellowships’ like season 4 (God that was awful); and the surprise death (and terrible episode) at the end of season 4. I am also happy that we got rid of one annoying character in season 5 and another in season 6 (though this character does make some reappearances). So three main characters out in 6 seasons… not too bad (definitely not as screwy as ER got).
Olivia Wilde is brilliant as always, Omar Epps is good, but not as brilliant as he was in seasons 1-3. I do like that Chase gets into the action. He is a rather enjoyable character to watch. He has some issues in this season and really develops as a character.
The show is still great, but it needs to close out soon. I hope for the integrity of the show they end at season 7. It is losing steam and I don’t want it to end up like ER!
In my opinion seasons 1-3 are the best and rate about equal to me, then 5, then 6, then a big step down to 4 (a whole slew of unimportant, uninteresting characters and cases).
