The Hugh Laurie (Greg House) Aprecciation Thread!

Featured Replies

ah, to heck with the Emmys...i'm happy as long as they keep up the great episodes on House & Hugh still continues on as Greg House for a whiles yet.

 

tho US series tend to die off at 7 seasons... :\ case in point :

 

The West Wing = 7 seasons

Star Trek : Voyager = 7 seasons

Star Trek : Deep Space 9 = 7 seasons

Homicide : Life on the Street = 7 seasons

But House has the potential to be one of those shows that last years and years.

But even if that's the case, House IMO is a lot better than 90% of the shows out there.

 

And yes, fuck the Emmy's, but still, he HAS to be recognized for his work.

It's definitely smarter than most. And IMHO Greg House is one of the most complex and interesting character that has been developed for US network TV. Even if House goes on for only 2 more seasons, at least it'd be remembered for being a pretty damn good series.

 

It'd definitely be nice for Hugh to win the Emmys, after winning Golden Globes and SAG Awards, but I don't think he's the type of person who needs another award to continue doing what he does best, which is being a well-respected actor. The support and recognition for House and his other projects from the fans say it all.

a lot of American series don't seem to be lasting much longer than a few seasons, so the fact that House is going on its sixth already is pretty fantastic.

and IMO, Hugh winning the SAG award is much better than even getting an Emmy nomination.

"baby, don't buy them cookies!" :heart::lol:

House, for me...cos it's something different from the roles he's usually known for + he does it daym well! :D

and IMO, Hugh winning the SAG award is much better than even getting an Emmy nomination.

I agree with that :D The Emmys may be the award ceremony given the most mainstream publicity, but I think the SAG awards is more prestigious... A recognition from your fellow actors.

So anyone wants to share their fav Hugh performance?

This will be obvious, but I love House.

I love House too, but I also enjoy what he did with Stephen Fry on A Bit of Fry and Laurie very much. Impeccable comedic timing, never fails to bring a smile on my face.

that's really tough... i can't choose!

Hugh's always amazing. :heart:

 

although, i will say that the Tony and Control sketches are some of my favorite ones from ABOFAL.

Stephen Fry is a genius, too. XD

Yay, a Hugh Laurie thread!

I absolutely love this guy.

My mum's always wondering how I can be obsessed with a 50 year old man but what's not to love?!

A simply amazing Actor, Comedian, Author and Musician!

I'm really starting to love House, but when I think of Hugh Laurie, I always think of George in Blackadder the Third

well, lucky, lucky us!

lucky, lucky, luck... luck, la, la, la! cluck, cluck, cluck!

la, la, la, cluck, cluck, cluck!

his facial expression is priceless. XD

 

House had Blackadder on his tivo. :heart:

 

I hate everything about House, especially the Lupus "in-jokes" LOL LUPUS THAT IS SO FUNNY HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

IT'S NEVER LUPUS.

 

 

except in You Don't Want to Know

 

 

House had Blackadder on his tivo. :heart:

 

Really???

 

I've heard him talk about "a cunning plan" a couple of times and figured that was a little tip of the hat to Blackadder

 

Can I ask a question of all you guys who've been watching the show a lot longer than me...

 

Which of his teams do you prefer? Cameron, Chase & Foreman from the earlier series, or Kutner, Thirteen & Taub from the newer eps?

yeah, in the episode Clueless it shows his tivo recordings and Blackadder is on there along with The OC and Spongebob. :P

 

i prefer the old team, or "ducklings" as they're sometimes referred to as.

i miss Chase. :(

 

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwOrNLe_0Cs]YouTube - Hugh Laurie on set of Randall & Hopkirk (Deceased)[/ame]

 

:lol: "let's play boggle."

I do miss the ducklings. I like Kutner from the new team the most though (I won't spoil the show for Alison if she hasn't completed season 5) :P

The old team for sure!

I don't know, I really didn't enjoy watching the new team.

 

Chase, Cameron & Foreman FTW! :smug:

oh, Kutner. *tries to refrain from saying anything else*

i like Taub, too. Thirteen... meh.

Foreteen is such a weird couple. :sick:

 

i think i read somewhere, though, that Chase (and Cameron :rolleyes:) will be in the 6th season more. :dance:

Aw, Min, thanks for not spoiling anything :)

 

 

I've only seen most of season four, half of series 3, a few eps of series 5... (a combination of me getting in to it late and weird scheduling by two separate channels in the UK)

 

 

I prefer the new team. I love Kutner and I think because the first eps I ever saw were where they were all getting picked, i'm naturally drawn to them more.

 

From the first team, I like Chase and Foreman is ok, but the more I watch of series 5, the more Foreman annoys me.

 

I find series 3 Cameron sooooooo whiny and annoying, but she's ok in series 5.

i can't stand Cameron. :angry:

she was all right in the very beginning of the show, up until they decided to make her be in love with House. then she was just annoying.

I Love Him!!!

 

Best show ever!!!!!!!!!! Has anyone besides me noticed the similarity in physical features between Hugh Laurie and Chris Martin??? To me, Hugh Laurie is liek the older version of Chris!:kiss:

^^ YES.

 

i always liked House but then i stopped watching it for awhile. During that time i got all Coldplay obsessed and after that i couldnt stop watching House and i didnt know why. Then i realised it was because Hugh looks like Chris... and because its an awesome show! :D
