The character of House was created by David Shore, who is credited as creator, and Paul Attanasio, who wrote the script for the pilot. The original premise of the series was of a. team of doctors working together trying to \”diagnose the undiagnosable\”. Shore felt it was important to have an interesting central character, one who examine patients’ ailments by figuring out their secrets and lies. As Shore and the team explored the program concept, the program became more focused upon procedure and more focused on the title character. House’s only true friend is the head of the Department of Oncology, Dr. James Wilson. House often clashes with his fellow physicians, including his own diagnostic team, because many of his hypotheses about patients’ illnesses are based on subtle or controversial insights. In the first three seasons, House’s diagnostic team consists of Dr. Robert Chase, Dr. Allison Cameron, and Dr. Eric Foreman. At the end of the third season, this team disbands. House gradually selects three new team members: Dr. Remy 14th Hadley, Chris Taub, and Lawrence Kutner. In season six, Cameron departs the hospital, and her position is filled by medical student Martha M. Masters. Cuddy and Masters depart before season eight; Foreman becomes the new Dean of Medicine, while Dr. Jessica Adams, Jessica Adams and Chi Park join House’s team.
