HOUSE AND CUDDY CALL IN SICK ON THE SEASON PREMIERE OF “HOUSE” MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, ON FOX

In the aftermath of last season’s emotional finale in which House and Cuddy admitted they had feelings for each other, as Season Seven begins, they are exploring the ramifications of those feelings and attempting to make a real relationship work. Meanwhile, due to a colleague’s illness, Princeton Plainsboro is left without a neurosurgeon on site, threatening the hospital’s accreditation as a Level 1 Trauma Center. As the team attempts treatment to get their sick colleague back to work, they discover there is more to the illness than they originally suspected and turn to House for direction. Instead, House remains elusive, leaving the team on its own in the “Now What?” season premiere episode of HOUSE airing Monday, Sept. 20 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. (HOU-701) (TV-14 D, L, S)

Here’s a quick bit of an interview that Michael Ausiello did with House star Hugh Laurie at the Emmy Awards Sunday evening:

Question: Where is the Hugh Laurie interview you promised us from the Emmys?! House fans are an impatient lot! —Gillian

Ausiello: First off, simmer yourself. I’ve had a lot on my plate the past few days, if you hadn’t noticed. Second, the interview is RIGHT. HERE.

Ausiello: So they’re finally going there with Huddy.

HUGH LAURIE: It seems that way.

Ausiello: Scared?

LAURIE: I’m scared for him. Terrified. But so far so good. Baby steps.

Ausiello: Are you happy they finally took the plunge?

LAURIE: I care less about what happens than how it happens. And if you do it right, it will work. And if we don’t do it right, nothing works. But I think we’ve danced around the idea long enough, it was time to take some action.

Ausiello: Is it safe to say that if it doesn’t work with Huddy it won’t work with anyone?

LAURIE: That’s a possibility. He might be fatally flawed. [Source: EW]

In these two House season 7 promotional videos, we get a lot more to enjoy. In promo clip #8, we get a look back at the House/Cuddy relationship from season 1 to now. A couple of these were among my favorite quotes from House. There’s even a spoiler included! Check this out:

And in this one, House faces two little, old men in the clinic. I love his snide comment…
