House 2004–12:-
During its 177-episode run, House was extremely popular, becoming the most-watched fictional TV show in the world in 2008, with over 81 million viewers worldwide. However, by the time House season 8 was broadcast, the viewership numbers had dropped and significant House characters like Cuddy had left the show.
Every episode, the show highlights a new patient by starting off with a minute of back story. In every case, the diagnosis is unknown, hence the patient being brought to the attention of House and his team. House and his minions always believe they figure out the condition early in the show, which usually ends up making the patient’s quality of health worse. After 50 minutes of drama, the diagnosis is either extremely simple or extremely exotic.
Robert Chase, M.D. is a fictional character on the Fox medical drama House. He is portrayed by Jesse Spencer. His character was a part of the team of diagnosticians who worked under Gregory House until the end of the third season when House fires him.

At that point Laurie joined Cambridge’s Footlights Club comedy revue group, eventually serving as its president. While on an end-of-year tour with the Footlights, he met the actor-playwright Stephen Fry. The two collaborated on The Cellar Tapes. They entered that revue in the 1981 Edinburgh Festival Fringe and won the Perrier Pick of the Fringe Award. Along with Robbie Coltrane, Ben Elton, and fellow Footlights performer Emma Thompson, they soon were writing and performing on the television sketch-comedy program Alfresco (1983–84). That led to Laurie’s role on Rowan Atkinson’s series Blackadder II and various other Blackadder sequels (beginning in 1986), and he and Fry wrote and performed in 26 episodes of A Bit of Fry and Laurie between 1987 and 1995. Among his other comedy series was Jeeves and Wooster, also with Fry (1990–93).
At the beginning of the 21st century, Laurie took a role as the brilliant but rude and arrogant Dr. Gregory House in the American television drama House. Laurie—whose American accent on the show was so convincing that people often thought he was joking around when he spoke with his natural British accent—garnered two Golden Globe Awards (2006 and 2007) for his role and gained extraordinary.
