What was the title of the House M.D. series finale broadcast in 2012?

The House M.D. series finale broadcast in 2012 was titled “Everybody Dies.”

Fox aired the episode on May 21, 2012, closing the show’s eight-season run. The title echoes the series’ recurring interest in mortality while also referring to the central conflict faced by Gregory House during the finale’s story.

The episode was written by David Shore, the show’s creator, and was directed by David Shore as well. Its narrative brings together House’s professional identity, his friendship with James Wilson, and the consequences of House’s decisions. The finale also uses a patient case as part of its larger emotional structure.

“The C-Word” was an earlier House episode, while “Help Me” was the seventh-season finale. “Swan Song” is associated with the series’ retrospective material, not the scripted finale itself, making “Everybody Dies” the precise title sought here.
