I've been a big fan of House MD for quite some time now. Mainly because of the excellent actors, enthralling story line and Hugh Laurie. Hugh has many faces for me and at first I didnt even know he was the guy playing Gregory House, since I remembered him mainly as a sidekick of bad ass Edmund Blackadder in the BBC series of Blackadder.
Blackadder with its cunning jokes and witty humor. "I've got a plan so cunning that you can put a tail on it and call it a weasel!". Laurie plays mostly not the smartest guy in these series. On the picture one can see the cast of Blackadder 4, during World War 1. Laurie is on the top right next to his long time sparring parner Stephen Fry (Fry and Laurie, check it on youtube). Also in Blackadder 3 he plays Prince 'thicky' George, with Blackadder as his servant. Its hard to recognise the thick, open and happy Laurie from Blackadder when it comes to House. House is witty and funny, but its black humor and he's not the most likable character. Still brilliant acting and without Laurie House wouldnt be the same for me.
Not much to say about it at the moment, just wanted to show my appreciation for the series and its main character and actor. Definitely one of my favorites. Apart from that one should look for his songs on youtube "mistery" or "sophisticated man".
