What Makes Hugh Laurie as Dr. Gregory House?
Before starring on House, Hugh Laurie played George, the Prince of Wales on “Blackadder,” perfecting the art of making fun of and impersonating stupid rulers, or at least the stupid things they do. “I simply find easy to play stupid people.”
His current character, Dr. Gregory House, is not stupid. He is a little scary, mean, and very bitter and sarcastic, but “stupid” is NOT a word that I would choose to describe him. Despite his faults, he plays a doctor who most people just can’t help loving. While he wouldn’t necessarily be my first choice for a doctor, he makes for great entertainment. And below, are some of his finest moments.
