How many seasons did the television series House M.D. complete?

The television series House M.D. completed eight seasons. Fox broadcast the medical drama from 2004 until 2012, with each season following Gregory House and changing teams of doctors as they solved difficult diagnostic cases.

The first season established House, James Wilson, Lisa Cuddy, Eric Foreman, Robert Chase, and Allison Cameron. Later seasons changed the composition of House’s diagnostic department, including a large recruitment storyline in the fourth season.

Eight seasons is different from the show’s total episode count, which was 177. It is also distinct from the number of years between the premiere and finale because television seasons do not always align exactly with calendar years.

The eighth season was the final season. Its conclusion brought the long-running series to an end in 2012 after House’s professional and personal relationships had developed across the full run.
