Description: HOUSE MD - SEASONS 1 - 3 with BONUS BOOK The Strange Case of the Walking Corpse by Nancy Butcher HOUSE - Season 1 Running time approximately 16 hours 13 minutes LANGUAGE: English SUBTITLES: English, Spanish Go deeper into the medical mysteries of House, TV's most compelling new drama, as all 22 Season One episodes come to DVD. Hugh Laurie stars as the brilliant, but sarcastic Dr Gregory House, a maverick physician who is devoid of bedside manner. While his behavior can border on antisocial, Dr House thrives on the challenge of solving the medical puzzles that other doctors give up on. Together with his hand-picked team of young medical experts, he'll do whatever it takes in the race against the clock to solve the case. Check out each gripping episode featuring some of TV's hottest stars, including Carmen Electra, Chi McBride, Scott Foley and Sela Ward. It's the intriguing new series TV Guide's Matt Roush hails as "the uncommon cure for the common medical drama." HOUSE -Season 2 Running time approximately 17 hours 34 minutes LANGUAGE: English SUBTITLES: English, Spanish The overall strength of the second season proves that its first-year success wasn't a fluke. The season starts with Dr. House (Hugh Laurie) pursuing his ex-wife Stacy (Sela Ward) and ending with a tragedy that could potentially be deadly for himself and two colleagues. The premise of each show follws a set routine -- a patient is brought in with unusual symptons; House challenges his trio of underlings to diagnose the problem; they treat the patient, usually incorrectly the first few tries; and then at the very last minute -- through a revelation that often has little to do with the patient-- House figures out what's wrong and saves the day But House is a different breed. When he's at an off-track betting parlor and a woman collapses, he doesn't miss a beat. Still eyeing his race on television, he asks, "Is anybody here a doctor?" He'll mock a sick patient's complaints with a sarcastic "Boo Hoo!" And, if there happents to be a dead body around, he has no qualms about shooting it if he believes that could help diagnose another gun-shot victim. Of course, Housee actually does care about his patients, but he views a good bedside manner as the luxury of a doctor who has a helthy patient. But dying patients with seemingly incurable diseases need something more. They need House. HOUSE - Season 3 Running time approximately 17 hours 30 minutes LANGUAGE: English SUBTITLES: English, Spanish Two time Golden Globe winner and Primetime Emmy Award nominee Hugh Laurie is back making "House" calls in all 24 engaging episodes of this hit medical series! Dr Gregory House (Laurie) still has the most unapologetically prickly bedside manner ever, but his genius for solving medical mysteries that other practioners can't has earned him the respect of his team. In this provocative and compelling season, House's unpredictable cases -- from killer germs to killer secrets -- strain his already tenuous relationship with his co-worers and put his own health at risk. Take the doctor's orders...make House - Season 3 a habit. Bonus Book - THE STRANGE CASE OF THE WALKING CORPSE by NANCY BUTCHER An intriguing survey of the world of health and medicine, from curious remedies to uncommon conditions... Butcher delves into the dark corners of medicine to unearth weird maladies and surprising cures. More of a gathering of medical trivia than an actual chronicle, her book jumps from topic to topc, covering obscure ailments such as "cat-eye syndrome" (a rare chromosomal disorder) and "jumping Frenchmen of Maine" (an ill-understood neurological disorder), as well as more familiar diseases as Black Plague, leprosy and rabies. For each disease, Butcher offers a short synopsis of its discovery and attempted cures. In addition to uncommon ailments, the book outlines medicines that took a long time to be accepted by the medical establishment, or that remained on the fringes of acceptability. Some of these are best left to history. Others may have uses in the modern world: Butcher offers a table of herbs, for example, that alleviate various aches and pains. The book contains enough bizarre, disgusting and medical minutiae to keep readers turning pages. Check out my other items!Be sure to add me to your favorites list!
