Topic: Doctor in the House


  
  DVD Talk Review: Doctor in the House (Region 2)
Doctor in the House holds up well as affable entertainment, though it's not as revolutionary as it probably seemed when it was new.
In that sense, Doctor in the House may be the first film of its type, and its impact today is lessened only through familiarity, by the dozens of films and TV shows that followed in its wake, everything from The Paper Chase (about law school but otherwise very similar) to ER.
Overall, Doctor in the House looks quite good with its sharp image and bright color, hues that are rich but not overly so in the Hollywood manner.

  Doctor In The House (TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Doctor in the House was a British television comedy series produced by London Weekend Television from 1969-1970.
Unlike the United States, British doctors study medicine at the undergraduate level, so the characters were new to independent living and university life.
The Doctor in the House series is well known for the writing work of Graham Chapman and John Cleese, who would both later go on to become writer/performer members of Monty Python.

Doctor in the House is a 1954 British comedy film, directed by Ralph Thomas and produced by Betty Box.
A successful television series from London Weekend Television also followed: Doctor in the House from 1969-70, followed in succession by Doctor at Large, Doctor in Charge, Doctor at Sea (set on board a ship), Doctor on the Go, Doctor Down Under (set in Australia), and Doctor at the Top.
Confusingly, these shows were all syndicated in the United States under the title Doctor in the House and episodes from all of the series were often shown out of sequence.

Doctor in the House, with Michael Upton and Duncan Wearing is as funny,IMHO, as Fawlty Towers.
No doubts about it: the Doctor in the House series of shows jumped the shark with the Doctor at Sea series subset (note: the series changed its name every year or two to match some of the titles of the books after which it was modeled).

In addition to the emerging technology of the time, they also came to learn the humanistic bedside philosophy of the revered professor, who taught not only that beneficence is a moral obligation of the healer, but also that clues to diagnosis and reinforcements to therapy are the natural by-products of kindness.
House, the new Fox series (Tuesdays, 9 ET) named for its leading character, Dr. Gregory House (played by the estimable Hugh Laurie), is about a brilliant but absurdly misanthropic diagnostician whose imperiously intolerant hostility to everyone in his orbit makes the attitudes of my former teachers seem soaked in the milk of human kindness.
House, who heads a department singularly called "Diagnostic Medicine" at a fictional teaching hospital somewhere in New Jersey, bears the painful residue of a disease that is rara avis indeed, something he refers to as "an infarction of muscle" in his right thigh.
