How many episodes does the television series House M.D. contain?

The story behind the answer

The television series House M.D. contains 177 episodes.

Those episodes were broadcast across eight seasons on Fox between November 2004 and May 2012. The series used a mostly case-of-the-week structure, but its long run also allowed detailed arcs about House, his diagnostic fellows, hospital leadership, and his closest relationships.

The total includes regular episodes from every season and the two-hour season-four finale, “House’s Head,” and “Wilson’s Heart,” which are counted as separate episodes in standard episode lists. Episode numbering can therefore look slightly different across guides that treat paired broadcasts differently.

The number is distinct from the show’s eight-season count. Some seasons have 22 episodes, while others have more or fewer because of scheduling and production changes.
