Matthew Gilbert, Boston Globe ranked TB or nNot TB as one of the top ten TV episodes of 2005
"8. TB or Not TB

It was like tossing fresh meat to a hungry lion. Ron Livingston played the perfect bait for Hugh Laurie's cranky doctor on one of the best-ever episodes of Fox's ''House" (Nov. 1). Livingston, who also did superior TV work as the ego-challenged Berger on ''Sex and the City," played a do-good MD lobbying for moral greatness. His media-mongering refusal to take a cure for TB disgusted House, who couldn't get his head around why a doctor would destroy himself to make a political point about poor people who can't afford a cure. And when House loathes, we all benefit. The challenge to the writers of this series is to keep supplying Laurie with juicy targets for his contempt; this time, they succeeded beautifully."

Great TV in 10 Episodes

Catching up after several weeks away, I found this post on the house_daily livejournal. Great picture of Hugh and a brief article about how he spends the time while making House. The original comes from the always-fabulous hughlaurie.net.

For those who may have missed it:

Last week's TV Guide (Patrick Dempsey on cover) had some Hugh/House goodies.

1. Matt Roush picked House as one of his top ten shows of the year.

2. Large (almost full-page) version of their previous cover shot, with a list of House-isms picked by Hugh:

"What's with hiring a male secretary? J-Date not working out?"

"All aboard the good ship Ass-Kisser. Nice day for a sail."

"Ohhh, did I hurt the big-time oncologist's itty-bitty feelings??"

To a paramedic: "If you wanted to play doctor, maybe you should have buckled down a little more in high school."

"Let go of my cane before it becomes your new boyfriend."

Hugh has been nominated for a Golden Globe as Best Actor in a drama series.
