House, also known as House, M.D., is an American medical drama television series created by David Shore and executive produced by Shore and film director Bryan Singer. The Emmy and Peabody Award-winning medical drama debuted on the FOX Network on November 16, 2004. The series is currently the most watched scripted program on FOX.
House stars British actor Hugh Laurie as the American title character Dr. Gregory House, a role for which he received the 2006 and 2007 Golden Globe Award and the 2007 Screen Actors Guild Award for Best Actor in a Television Drama. In February 2007, House was renewed for a fourth season, which premiered on September 25, 2007 in the United States and Canada.
Eric Foreman, M.D., is a fictional character on the Fox medical drama House. He is portrayed by Omar Epps. A neurologist, Foreman was a member of Dr. Gregory House's handpicked team of specialists at Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital's Diagnostic Medicine Department. He was hired by House three days prior to the series' pilot episode (as revealed in a deleted scene of the pilot). Foreman attended Columbia University as an undergraduate before matriculating to Johns Hopkins Medical School. Little is known about Foreman's past, although it has been suggested that his family was not very well-off and his parents are currently living on a pension (cf. "Histories"). Foreman was also a former juvenile delinquent who once burgled houses and stole cars; House claims that this was a major factor in his decision to hire Foreman.
"Family" is the twenty-first episode of the third season of House, and the sixty-seventh episode overall. Wilson prepares a 14-year-old leukemia patient named Nick for a last resort bone-marrow transplant from his younger brother, Matty. However, when his brother sneezes, the team must figure out what is wrong with him before the transplant can occur. With only 5 days left for Nick, the team resorts to worsening Matty's condition to reveal what it is and treat it quickly. While the team wonders between an infection and an autoimmune disease, Matty actually gets seriously sick and starts to bleed out of his ears. Meanwhile, Foreman is busy checking the donor list to provide a riskier but immediate bone marrow donor. House disagrees, saying that Foreman is simply taking the safe route to avoid killing another patient.
