House: Seasons 1 - 4 Collection

This was a great way to purchase all 4 seasons!!! It saves you money...it comes within a reasonable amount of time and the show is the best show ever!!! I really thought that this purchase was well worth it.. when you buy the first season your not going to be able to stop you WILL get addicted so why not save a few bucks and buy all 4 seasons together at once!!

House is an interesting study in despicable human character. Dr. House is abrasive, deceitful, drug-addicted, and willing to experiment on patients like some World War II Nazi. He is also the sum of his experiences, and we can observe glimpses of what made him into who he is, why he tries to heal, why he is willing to lie, cheat and steal to get his job done, the damage that he does to his relationships and the impact that is has on him.

I don't watch this for the formulaic problem solving -- it is CSI in a hospital, finding the culprit disease after some reverses. I watch this for the character interactions (and morbidly watching to see what trouble House stirs up next, OK ...).

Dr. Cutty (House's boss) could be a stronger character. She seems to be just a foil for House's antics, and not so much an intelligent doctor in her own right.

I love the CDs, they got here quickly, but they do not have an index to help know when episode is on which CD.

It only took 5 days for my order to show up at my door, I plan on giving this as a gift and can't wait to see thier expression!

I'm pretty upset. I requested this box set NEW. It was a birthday gift for a good friend of mine. I also asked the shipper to NOT include the invoice. Imagine my suprise when the item arrived at my friend's front door with an invoice in the box. In addition, the disc pakaging looked a bit suspect. When it comes to actually watching the series, the first season was not bad, but seasons 2-4 look like a bootleg copy. The video is not crisp, a channel 5 logo appears on screen clearly showing that this was recorded off someone's television, and some episodes are in japanese- complete with menu. I may have been born at night, but it wasn't last night. I am extremely unsatisfied. If a product is advertised as new, it should be new. Not having watched the season bootlegged off mom's basement television doesn't make it new, and in no way is worth the price. I felt like an idiot having given this to a good friend for his birthday. If only I could get my money back.
