Stephen Fry Interested In House Appearance

This could be good. From Funny.co.uk:

Stephen Fry recently honoured the members of The Douglas Adams Continuum to an informal webchat during which he revealed details and outlines of many comedy projects.

Amongst them was talk of him appearing in an episode of House with long-term comedy partner Hugh Laurie. Stephen said, “maybe the upcoming season will see me in it. I like the idea of playing either an even nastier doctor than Hugh, or possibly a cleverer one who’s nicer and really p*sses him off.”

I’d be interested to see how they translated they relationship into what is ostensibly a drama. Though that could be debated. I think House might have more in common with MASH than ER. Or perhaps, you pull a one off all-out comedy episode. I’ve got it! A Season 3 DVD Special Feature. Do a send up of your own show. That would be something worth shelling out the money for.

I would love to see Stephen Fry make an appearance (or two) on “House”, but I would also love to see Robert Daws, who played Tuppy Glossop on “Jeeves & Wooster” make an appearance as well. Wow, he was so good on that show… hilarious! I know he’s presently doing other things, but snagging him for a guest spot on “House”… now that would be dashed enjoyable.

Too bad Stephen Fry’s already played a psychiatrist on that other show. When I saw the House finale I thought it’d be perfect for Fry to play the shrink who’s treating House.
