I didn't know he was British until the fourth or fifth episode, when I stumbled upon an article about the bloke in some magazine I can't remember the name of. When asked how he hid his English accent for the initial audition, he replied "I didn't hide anything, I simply applied an American accent" or something celver like that; I'm probably butchering this quote. He's a funny guy nevertheless.

this show is great. ive never really gotten into this type of show before but for some reason this one has me hooked. the next season should be pretty interesting with the new addition. house is pretty much the only show i try to watch every week
He's my number two man, right behind David Caruso of NYPD Blue/ CSI: Miami fame.

Just watched this for the first time. Hugh Laurie has been around for years here in Britain. One of his best roles ever was Prince George in Blackadder 3. I was pretty impressed with his American accent.

That's a new one for me - definition? "I Might Want To Kiss/Kill" ?cajunmama said:
House is an intriguing show. I don't make a point of seeing it, but it will often suck me in if I'm not careful. I can imagine that his character would be very repulsive to some, though. He's *awfully* arrogant.
Yes, books. (Well, it might still be book in the singular...) His first novel was The Gun Seller and his second was scheduled for 2005 or 2006 I think.cajunmama said:
I knew Fry was a writer, but it wasn't until a couple of years ago that I saw Laurie had tried his hand at writing too. I was browsing the shelves of my library and I remember thinking "how odd... Hugh Laurie isn't a common name, is it?"

Hugh Laurie is the only reason I watch House, just love his acerbic cutting wit. Found that the first series seemed to follow the same format for each story but am still going to watch the new series (starting here this week)
Think Hugh Laurie was at his most brilliant in Jeeves and Wooster. Can't imagine any actors to better him and Stephen Fry for these roles. Read somewhere that Hugh was suffering from bad depression when acting in Jeeves and Wooster so am even more impressed with his acting and determination. They were also truly hilarious(along with Rowan Atkinson) in the Black Adder series.
