How many episodes did House M.D. broadcast during its entire run?

The story behind the answer

House M.D. broadcast 177 episodes during its entire television run.

The series ran on Fox from November 16, 2004, until May 21, 2012. Across eight seasons, those episodes followed Dr. Gregory House and changing teams of doctors as they investigated difficult cases at Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital.

The total counts the original scripted episodes broadcast by the series. It does not mean that House had 177 seasons, nor does it count promotional specials, recap material, or episodes from unrelated medical programs. The final season had 22 episodes, while earlier seasons varied in length.

Episode totals can differ on streaming services if a platform separates two-part stories, labels specials differently, or organizes episodes by production order. The standard series total used for House M.D. is 177 episodes. This figure is distinct from the show’s 176 regular episodes plus its concluding installment, which together produce the complete total.
