The verdicts are mixed for Season 5 of House, M.D., which was recently released on DVD. Whether fans liked Season 5 or not, fans of the program agree that it was different. For example, Cameron and Chase were not featured as regularly, and some viewers believed that the season was more overdone than other seasons.
Viewers that enjoyed Season 5 report that the episodes connect with the audience better than in previous episodes, and that the audience learns more about how House's is impacted by his own demons. The overriding opinion is that if Hugh Laurie is in the show it will continue to be a top rated, smart television series. Even doctors who watch the show say that in spite of its sometimes overblown presentation, the show is very affecting and does give the viewers an idea of the emotions a doctor goes through when trying to make a complex diagnosis.
Those who were a little under-whelmed by House M.D. Season 5 complain that the writing varies in quality: the season starts out strong, includes some less exciting episodes in the middle, then picks up steam during the remainder of the season. One thing that did not win over many viewers was what they saw as an obvious and clumsy way of planting the seeds of a P.I. spinoff show by making use of a character that was not necessary to the story line. Other complaints were that the character arcs were less compelling and that uneven writing brought House's trademark biting wit to cross the line into unneeded shock value sometimes.
The 24 shows comprising Season 5 allow non-work and workplace boundaries to fade repeatedly among the main characters. Special appearances in Season 5 included eljko Ivanek, Mos Def, and Carl Reiner. The DVD collection includes extras covering new phases of Dr. Cuddy's life, how the program is cast, and the level of accuracy in the plots. The collection also contains a 100th episode appreciation, and extra explanation for the show about the patient with the "locked-in syndrome."
Between those fans who were enthusiastic about Season 5 and those who were not as thrilled, the vast majority declare they still like the show a lot and are anxiously awaiting House, M.D., Season 6. - 29872
