Which award did Hugh Laurie win for playing Gregory House at the 2006 Golden Globes?

Hugh Laurie won Best Actor – Television Series Drama at the 2006 Golden Globes for playing Gregory House.

The award recognized Laurie’s performance in House M.D., in which he played a brilliant but difficult physician who specializes in solving medical mysteries. His portrayal became one of the defining elements of the series and helped establish the show as a major television drama.

The 63rd Golden Globe Awards took place in January 2006 and honored work released during 2005. Laurie later won the same category again at the 2007 Golden Globes, making the two consecutive victories an important part of the show’s awards history.

This honor is sometimes confused with Emmy recognition. Laurie received multiple Primetime Emmy nominations for the role but did not win the lead-actor Emmy. The Golden Globe category was specifically for a leading actor in a television drama series.
