I don’t think Candice Bergen looks too young for Huddy’s mom, the thing is that Lisa Edelstein has always looked older than she was. She’s a terrific actress, but she looks older her age. And, yes I do remember her Ally Mc Beal role as a transsexual…sorry to say that, but she always looked as a tranny to me…
Really? Becauase I find it very hard indeed to find many 43you woman that look as fit and stunning as Lisa E.
Really? I’m a Murphy Brown/Candace Bergen fan (never really got into Boston Legal, but a decent show). I think we’ll see some fireworks. Can’t wait!
Did I hear…POTENTIAL SON-IN-LAW?!

I always pictured Cuddy’s mother was black hair but really she kind of looks like Cuddy! happy with the choice
Can’t wait! Love where HOUSE is headed. BTW…”potential son-in-law”??? Thought House is not the marrying type??? But would love it if show GOES THERE! Because House is at his core and in his heart, a romantic….
For reasons uknown i’m getting a blank page after i make an attempt to post a comment,do you recognize the reasons why its occurence?i’m utilizing oprea web-browser
Excellent choice! Madame Bergen has always played intelligent characters with the capacity to go nose to nose with anyone and not back down. Looking forward to seeing her rise to yet another great acting opportunity.
Candice Bergen is great portraying strong willed women. I loved her as Murphy Brown and as Shirley Schmidt (Boston Legal, I loved that show!!!). She is one actress who can really create women that take no prisoners…good luck House, you have your work cut out for you vs. Cuddy’s mom!!!
This season just keeps getting better and better! It is so great to see House and Cuddy sparring — they are the best onscreen couple since Tracy and Hepburn.
candice bergen ok. house married? no no no. don’t develop this relationship. axe it.
I like House too, but you talk like a flouncy girly-man!!! are you a GAY???
Great casting, but then again, everything they do and have done on House is great.
Can’t stand CB, brings back the woman’s lib all over again, won’t watch this woman… tear up a good man like House…
