A new medical mystery drama called "House," starring the brilliant Hugh Laurie, is getting the best time slot in all of TV-dom, Tuesdays at 9 p.m., following the competition show of "American Idol 4" when that franchise returns in January.
Actually, "House" is getting the time slot starting in November, only "Idol" won't be its lead-in yet; its lead-in will be a new reality series starring billionaire Richard Branson, the guy who started Virgin Atlantic, Virgin Records, Virgin Everything Else.
Unfortunately, most Fox viewers will know Laurie only as the badly written dad in those Stuart Little flicks or as Vincente Minnelli in ABC's "Life With Judy Garland: Me and My Shadows." Only Fox viewers who are serious students of P.G. Wodehouse -- all two of us -- will have seen Laurie in his career-defining role as Bertie Wooster to Stephen Fry's Jeeves in the Brit TV adaptations of Wodehouse's stories about the wealthy, lovable British dimwit and his brainy butler.
[...]
Aw. "All two of us." Here's the link to the TV Tome site for House.
The Futon Critic has a short bit about it here.

The BlogCritic's story about it.
Wheee!
