'House' Series Finale Date Set For May 21

Mark your calendars "House" fans. The Fox medical drama will officially end its eight-season run on May 21.

In February Fox and executive producers David Shore, Katie Jacobs and Hugh Laurie announced that after much deliberation it was decided that Season 8 will be the show's last.

"While it's with much regret, and a lump in our throats, we respect the decision Hugh, David and Katie have made," Kevin Reilly, president of entertainment at Fox, said in a statement. "A true original, on the page and amazingly brought to life by Hugh Laurie, there is only one Dr. House. For eight seasons, the entire 'House' team has given us -- and fans around the world -- some of the most compelling characters and affecting stories ever seen on television... For all the above, we wholeheartedly thank them, and the fans who have supported the show."

and they don't go for a happy ending. Though the last few episodes have been showing House's more human side, which has been good.

I read on the net and on the House facebook page are really negative about this character.

she's very quirky and what we think is 'funny' is just her being her --intentional for the character I think. My husband loves her character too, we're always laughing at her. Maybe we're weird.

she was a shot in the arm for the season, and a well needed shot. Just finished the dvd season yesterday and I cannot believe this series is over....damn it, now I have to find another show.
