08/19/12
OVERVIEW: Two-time Golden Globe® winner Hugh Laurie is back one last time as TV’s favorite misanthrope Dr. Gregory House in
the hit series’ eighth and final season. Hailed as “one of the smartest and intellectually bravest shows on television” by E! Online,
“House” Season Eight arrives on Blu-ray™ and DVD on August 21, 2012 from Universal Studios Home Entertainment.
When House returns to his old friends at Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital (Robert Sean Leonard, Omar Epps, Jesse
Spencer, Peter Jacobson) after an unconventional release from his prison sentence, he finds himself under a surprising new chain
of command and dealing with personnel changes to his staff. Together, House and his new team (Charlene Yi, Odette
Annable) take on the most baffling medical cases yet and face challenges of both the mind and the heart. “House” Season Eight also
features great guest stars such as Jeffrey Wright (Source Code), Billy Connolly (The Last Samurai), Melanie Lynsky (“Two and a
Half Men”), David Anders (“Once Upon a Time”), Jake Weber (“Medium”), Wentworth Miller (“Prison Break”) and Jamie Bamber
(“Battlestar Galactica”).
Wrap up all the drama back-to-back and uninterrupted as this television phenomenon comes to a close with this five-disc collection
featuring the final 22 gripping episodes,
and nearly two hours of bonus material, including the exclusive never-before-seen
documentary “The Doctor Directs” and more!
