GREGORY HOUSE
House

He's snarky, arrogant, and hopped up on Vicodin. He's also always right in his diagnosis of the P.O.W. (patient-of-the-week). Personality defects be damned; if we ever came down with a bizarre disease, Gregory House is the doctor we'd want at our bedside. Not only would we be guaranteed a cure from Hugh Laurie's ridiculously intelligent doctor, but we'd get a front row seat for the amusing exchanges between House and Wilson (Robert Sean Leonard).
