Uncover the creation of television’s most brilliant and cynical diagnostician with the definitive insider’s guide to House, M.D.
The first authorized companion to the Emmy Award-winning medical drama House, M.D., starring Hugh Laurie, House M.D: The Official Guide to the Hit Medical Drama features full backstage access to the cast and crew of the popular television series, with an Introduction by Hugh Laurie.
Author Ian Jackman details production across soundstages on the Fox lot, drawing on conversations with the writers and ensemble cast. Chapters trace the creation of Dr. Gregory House from an audition in Namibia through 131 episodes.
The volume reveals how creator David Shore and medical consultants ground bizarre cases in real science, from simulated surgeries to prosthetics. Individual profiles examine each fellow alongside the pivotal dynamic between House and James Wilson.
- Television Production: Construction coordinators explain how the crew erected a two-story hospital lobby over an antique ice rink on Stage 15 to expand filming space.
- Special Effects: Makeup artists and prop masters reveal the techniques behind convincing surgeries, from custom blood formulas to silicone biopsy models.
- Television Writing: Executive producers explain how clinical cases were adapted from medical literature and shaped into character arcs mapped twelve episodes in advance.
