    No spin-off. Would cheapen the show.

  • Daryl

    I’d say give Lucas, Cameron and Foreman a spin-off and my show is rescued from boring characters.

    • Chris

      Nice.

    • Radi

      U go girl!

    • Karen

      Lol that would be a horrible spin-off.

    • joyjit

      Nice idea… Cant stand them all!

  • Paul

    The combination of Lucas and 9 p.m. is throwing a wet towel on the zesty spirited chemistry of House and Cuddy. Spin off Lucas into his own show…or into the stratosphere, I don’t care. Just get rid of Lucas and bring by House/Cuddy stat!

    • Paul

      That should read “bring BACK House/Cuddy stat!”

  • Izzy

    Cuddy’s spin off! LisaE is amaizing, she NEEDS her own show!

  • Jane

    bye bye Lucas..hello Huddy !

  • c

    I think that Lucas should get his own spin off, the character is great and i think that a Sherlock Holmes-private detective style show is the perfect thing to be a lead in to House.

  • missy

    Who the f*** cares about Lucas? He should go and diaf.

  • Jane

    KJ is sooo in love with Cuddy’s character, she should give her this spin off!

  • nick

    Wilson deserves his own show !

    • tcn

      ITA

    A spinoff??? I think not. It will fail miserably. No one on that show has the ability to lead a show on their own. I watch House for Cuddy, House and Wilson. The rest of the cast is whatever to me. They could be there or not. Their storylines are never my favorite. Except I did enjoy the Cameron/Chase thing and those would be the only characters I would follow aside from Cuddy, House and Wilson. I <3333 Wilson

      Did millions watch “Cheers” in its heyday solely for Frasier Crane? Yet that character went on to his own successful show for another eleven seasons. If you have good writing and a solid supporting cast, you could take any character from “House” and put them in a successful spinoff. “Lou Grant” is another good example (that show ran for five years after MTM).

    How funny, I was just thinking about House spin-off opportunities in the shower. The idea I came up with: Cameron starts her own department of diagnostics out west, partnering with a female doctor who’s been looking to start such a department at her hospital. This lead role will of course be played by Lauren Graham. Make it happen.

    • Courtney

      YES.

  • ildarabbit

    A Mayfield Psychiatric Hospital spin-off! It was so brilliantly conceived in Broken. I loved Dr. Nolan and the show could focus on him as a virtuoso of difficult psychiatric patients. And maybe House could stop by for his therapy sessions sometime… I would totally watch that.

    • shotahunter

      You are so right! Dr. Nolan and Mayfield should really get their own show! they did wonders for House! :D

    • Starlight

      i LOOOVEEE that idea- i’d definately watch that. that show ‘mental’ over the summer was awesome- this spinoff could be kinda like that. i love the idea of going from straight medical issues to psychological issues. now THATS a good idea for a spin off

  • Ariel

    Why not make it a police drama that deals with hardcore criminals. The main character can screw with the suspects heads. A rogue detective running a special unit of some sort would be pretty funny. He could offend all the suspects and witnesses and survivors and make his unit break all sorts of rules as long as he obtains the evidence and confession legally. That could work.

    • Starlight

      u should watch NCIS i think u might like it

  • Courtney

    I vote we don’t get a spin-off. How about we cut Cuddy, Foreman, Taub, and Thirteen? After they’re disposed of, we can bring back Cameron, Kutner, and Amber. Then Chase and Cameron can get back together, House and Wilson can finally stop denying that they’re gay with each other, and Kutner and Amber can… well, we all know Kutner admires her legs. After all, they go all the way to Canada.

    • Med

      UMMMMM did you forget that Kutner died? Amber as well?

    • jess

      WORD.

      and this is House. the last two seasons could have all been a hallucination or something, lol

  • Andrew

    Thirteen needs her own spin-off show, but will require a complete character overhall in order for it to be successful.
