Hugh Laurie - Renaissance Man

Hugh Laurie is a true Renaissance Man - he writes (beautifully), plays several instruments (beautifully), sings (quite well), and is such a gifted actor that those who know him only as Gregory House, M.D., are surprised to learn that he was also the dim Prince George in Blackadder The Third, or Stephen Fry's partner in the classic series A Bit of Fry and Laurie.

Three reasons to love Hugh Laurie 

Of course, it's very easy to find tons of reasons to adore Hugh Laurie, but here are just a few to start off with:

1. Blackadder
2. Fry and Laurie
3. House, M.D.

The new season of House began September 25th. Fox Broadcasting has a great page on House, full of details on past episodes, photo galleries and MORE.

A bit of brilliance from Fry and Laurie 

Shakespeare Master Class

Truly one of my favorites! If you were an Engish major in college (as I was), this should make you recall some of those overly analytical upper level classes.

A brighter life for Hugh Laurie
An insightful 2002 article touching on Hugh's depression.

"... it comes as something of a surprise to learn that the comedy actor has suffered so severely from black moods and depression that he has spent two years in psychotherapy and credits the experience with changing his life. "

Hugh Laurie, Author 

Hugh Laurie's first novel, The Gun Seller, has been very positively reviewed, and his second novel, The Paper Solider, was just published in September of 2007.

The Gun Seller

In this spoof (of sorts) of the spy genre, Laurie's appealing turns of phrase will grab readers from the first paragraph. Thomas Lang, formerly of the Scots Guard and currently a freelance bodyguard/man for hire, is offered an assassination job. He indignantly refuses, attempts to warn the victim, and is soon embroiled in undercover work for the British government, CIA operatives, arms dealers, and terrorists.

Although House is definitely a role of a lifetime, he is just so darned talented that I figure he will win an Oscar and Golden Globe at some point as well. Why does it seem like so many of our finest actors are Brits or Irish or Aussies!

Fantastic show House M.D. You inspire me to want to be a medical doctor. I'm a triple threat and things get quite boring and with medical diagnosis there is always something new and fascinating to catch my attention. Thank you Hugh for giving me something to watch when there are no other shows of knowledge! Hugh your quite the looker too!
