Aug 22, 2005 - Just a few updates to the site. Fox has been running another promo for House, along with their new show - Bones. I've added the clip. Notable mainly for this shot:

There are also some House season 2, episode 1 photos added to the House page.

Good article from the Richmond Times - Dispatch

Snippet from the Chicago Sun-Times:

"They tell me nothing. They treat me like a spaniel. If that's how you treat spaniels. I don't know where we're going because they possibly don't know themselves." -- Hugh Laurie, on the upcoming season of "House''

Update also includes this 1991 article from Hello Magazine that mentions the birth of Hugh's second son, Bill - who decided to announce his arrival while Hugh was in the middle of filming a scene from Jeeves and Wooster.

Finally, a photo of Hugh on the Cambridge boat team ( Hugh is partially hidden behind another teammate)

Aug 17, 2005 - Hugh and the entire cast are featured in a large spread in latest Issue of Emmy Magazine's Fashion/Costume issue - very dark and moody.

Aug 16, 2005 - House is featured in the latest edition of TV Guide - including the cover and an essay by Hugh describing among other things, his audtion for the role. I don't have the issue yet, but you can read some of the article at tvguide.com and, thanks to a fan at the House_MD Live Journal, you can read Hugh's witty and charming essay.

The Aug. 15 issue of the Hollywood Reporter features the actors nominated for an Emmy award. I scanned the article before I realized it was online (scan is pieced together from several pages of the magazine)

[excerpt]

Laurie's portrayal of Dr. Gregory House on the quirky first-year Fox medical drama figures to be tough to beat, in part because he's more than merely a lead on the series but the straw that stirs the entire enterprise.

Co-creator/executive producer David Shore maintains that since "House's" going to pilot and receiving an order was so cast-contingent, finding Laurie made the series possible. "Not only does Hugh make the character work, he's so good at both comedy and drama that it frees us up to write more provocative things," Shore says. "He can deliver a joke perfectly, but he's also amazingly confident with drama. I'm in awe of what he does week after week.

Also, a House cast pic featuring the men on the show


Aug 14, 2005 - The September 2005 issue of V Life (a publication of Variety) features their 2005 Emmy Portfolio:

"Armed with an air shutter release, Emmy contenders pose in self-portraits and display their gifts for appearing serious, bittersweet, offbeat and just plain hammy"

Here is Hugh's self-portrait:
