At fictional Princeton Plainsboro Teaching Hospital in New Jersey, prickly genius Dr. Gregory House tackles health mysteries as would a medical Sherlock Holmes, all the while playing mind games with colleagues that include his best friend, oncologist James Wilson. House, an acerbic infectious disease specialist, solves medical puzzles with the help of a team of young diagnosticians. Flawless instincts and unconventional thinking help earn House great respect, despite his brutal honesty and antisocial tendencies.

Melinda Beck Wall Street Journal The episode is both a bridge to the new season and a brilliant stand-alone feature film, with a new cast, a new set and glimpses of a new House as his defenses finally crack. Mar 18, 2019 Full Review Zack Handlen AV Club House's unwillingness to deal directly with his patients has always set this series apart from other medical shows. Rated: B Feb 6, 2019 Full Review Alan Sepinwall Newark Star-Ledger This is the best "House," and its leading man, have been in a long time. Sep 21, 2009 Full Review CJ Sheu Review Film Review Look at Season 6, where the original trio returns temporarily; House deploys his usual belittling sarcasm, but now they can tell which of his insinuations are worth paying attention to, and which are just him having fun. House himself is a work of wonder. Jan 9, 2025 Full Review Brendan Bettinger Collider Even though "Broken" promised a change in House that was more told than shown, its utter greatness as a standalone film sustained my interest through the ups and downs of the remainder of season six. Apr 3, 2020 Full Review James Chamberlin IGN Movies After seeing the season six premiere, I'm honestly happy to see that things may be improving for House, not just the character, but the show as well. Rated: 9.2/10 Mar 18, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

Sheyla L Absolute Must-See! The actors and storyline are absolutely fantastic — I’ll never get tired of them. This is my fifth time watching House, and it just gets better every time! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/05/25 Full Review Obi-wan K I dont think even have to watch this season Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/19/25 Full Review St E I'll do it later, I promise Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/02/24 Full Review Bronco 1 Very good season after a great season five! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/11/24 Full Review S. S One of the best TV shows ever made. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/29/23 Full Review Audience Member This season contains one of my favourite episodes of this show, in which we can see other character's perspective, and that adds immensely to the plot. It's a very awkward, but still great progression to the story and it serves well to strengthen and deepen the relationships that make the show great.
