Answer
November 16, 2004
House M.D. premiered in the United States on November 16, 2004.
Fox broadcast the pilot as the first episode of the medical drama, introducing Hugh Laurie as Dr. Gregory House and establishing the show’s focus on rare diagnostic cases. The series was created by David Shore and produced by Shore, Katie Jacobs, and David E. Kelley.
The premiere launched a program that became one of Fox’s most successful scripted dramas. Its format combined an episodic medical puzzle with continuing stories about House, his colleagues, and the consequences of his unconventional methods.
The show’s United States premiere date is distinct from the dates on which it later debuted in other countries. It ultimately concluded in 2012 after eight seasons, making the 2004 premiere the beginning of a much longer television run.
