VIDEO:
The video is presented in anamorphic widescreen with an aspect ratio of 1.78:1. Fans were upset that the first season was nonanamorphic, luckily that isn't the case with season two. The transfer is simply gorgeous. The picture comes in bright and vibrant. This is how a TV show should look.
AUDIO:
The audio is presented in Dolby Digital 5.1 with optional English and Spanish subtitles. The sound is crisp and clear without any dialogue coming in muddled.
EXTRAS:
Disc 1 features an audio commentary on "Autopsy" with producers David Shore and Katie Jacobs.
Disc 2 features It Could Be Lupus..., a montage of the doctors pronouncing or denouncing a case of Lupus. There is also a blooper reel and an alternate take of Lisa Edelstein and Jennifer Morrison performing their scene as, like, Valley Girls, totally.
Disc 5 features another alternate Valley Girl take.
On Disc 6, you'll find another audio commentary by Shore and Jacobs on the episode "No Reason." An Evening with House is a Q&A session with the actors and producers, which was filmed at the Academy of Arts & Sciences.
FILM VALUE:
FOX has been on my naughty list for canceling "Firefly" and "Arrested Development." But, they've been making it up to me by treating "House" so well. The show is intricately written, full of twists, turns, and great characters with just the right amount of humor tossed in for good measure. Now THIS is must-see TV.
