House season 2 - By: Mrs. L. Mcdonald, 11 Mar 2010 
Service was very good & did not take long to arrive. A good price & would definatley recommend
Same irreverent House - By: Book junkie, 26 Feb 2010 Loved the first season & the second was no disappointment. I sometimes wonder how they get away with some of the very non-PC comments, but am glad they do. Good script, good story lines, great acting. Hugh Laurie's House is brilliant.
Great stuff - By: Frann Leach, 14 Feb 2010 Season 2 of House does not disappoint, especiallly as the temptation to "add interest" by having confrontations with people of no relevance has been avoided. Hugh Laurie is brilliant as always, & the chemistry & understated humour is maintained throughout.
House - Season 2 review - By: G. Mill, 14 Feb 2010 The second season of House is pure brilliance, a great set of storylines with a running thread that keeps you wanting to watch more & more.
i would definitely recommend this series to people. it's superb! (watch the first season first of course for maximum enjoyment!)
Consistently good - By: Dyspeptic Spirit, 27 Jan 2010 
I have to admit that I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with House.
The series concept is slight. Every week a person gets sick in such a way that it baffles every normal doctor. House & his team then get to work diagnosing the problem. They treat the patient who then gets worse. They have a rethink, try a new treatment which makes things even worse, they have another rethink, a new treatmet is suggested which nearly results in the patient's death. House then (having tormented his team for long enough) has a light bulb moment, works out the problem & lickety split the patient is cured & leaves for home. After a few episodes this story line starts to palll, after twenty episodes every episode feels like a bad case of deja-vu.
Of course, the success of the show was never due to the plot, it was due to the outstanding performance of Hugh Laurie. His interpretation of the character is quite brilliant & the quality of his performance nothing but consistently brilliant. Every time he appears on screen he brings the show to life. His dry humour & acid tongue give the show a badly needed edge & provide a lot of laugh out loud moments. The best of these are during the occasions when House is forced to do his clinic hours & deal with humanity which he appears to uniformly despise. I think the writers should have included more scenes of this nature because they are a highlight.
Having said this I do feel that the show would have been so much better if it had been kept more compact & possibly limited to 12 shows a season rather than the 20 or so that it is but hey ho.
In summary, House is a well made show that suffers a little from being repetitive but Hugh Laurie's performance earns it an extra star.
