Good show - BluRay adaption with deficiencies
4I would say there's only little I can add about the show on top of what TV review sites have to say about it so I'll focus on the BluRay adaption: The product itself comes in a cardboard box with removable upper shell which is very stable and much more convenient to handle than the also common slipcase. Each of the seasons is one separate separate case containing 4 or 5 discs. Those containers leave a lot to desire, the labelling of the discs is insufficient and the removal or insertion of the discs very finicky. In the player the discs themself handle straight forward, trailers are kept to a minimum and the menus are simple and quick to navigate. My player is capable of recognising where I stopped watching and will pick up at the same place next session which is nice. Not so nice is that once one moves from auto play to manual play by navigating ,the playback will drop back to the menu after each episode without option to continue with automatic playback, also the discs are not linked so there's no way to check out what episodes are available on the other discs and there's also no request to change discs after it displayed the last episode. Also a brief description of the episodes would have been nice to have. Also odd is that the first subtitle language in the list is not so common Japanese rather than the audio language (English in this case). Speaking of audio: Indeed the disc is encoded in surround sound however the audio itself is very one dimensional and doesn't even seem to have a pronounced stereo effect. Regarding the image: The encoding can not described in any other way than mediocre: sharpness is good, detail is okay, dynamic range lackluster BUT quick movements show noticeable compression artefacts and, even worse, patches of similarly bright colors (white, light blue, ...) show horrendous amounts of ugly chromatic noise -- make no mistake there're quite a few instances of that problem per episode and it's really fugly to watch. I was really hoping for a better adaption to BluRay but that doesn't impact the quality of the show per se as it should still be above what streaming services can offer.

Best medical drama series
5I use to be a avid bluray collector but I sold most of my collection due to streaming services, however after seeing this complete package I couldn't resist. Huge lorrie is great as Gregory house, taking on cases that nobody else can solve with a twist, being himself the biggest enigma. You fall in love with his character and a great supporting cast that will make u laugh and get emotional at the same time. It's a great ride that you shouldn't miss! The box set is very well presented, crystal clear bluray transfer, with hours of extras. Delivered very quick by zavvi. Buy it!

One of the best series ever.
5I`m very choosy when it comes to purchasing Boxsets and this one fits just perfectly in my collection. House MD Boxset is brimming with features and is worth every penny. The series is just amazing, one episode after another and Hugh Laurie`s acting as Dr Gregory House is Fantastic.The only thing that bothered me is that the theme song was changed to another version of the original massive attack "teardrop" soundtrack, cant imagine why. Brilliant Series and Boxset.

The best medical drama there is
5Consistently entertaining, clever, funny, thought provoking and heart-wrenching. Each season is an outstanding piece of television. Easily the best medical drama there has ever been on television.
