A search found nothing recently, and have not been able to check here for a couple of weeks.

What happened to “House?” Did it perish after the writers’ strike? Any indication when, if ever, it will be back?

Unfortunately, have not been able to kick my addiction to that program, so hoping it will be back soon.

Thanks, **Hal** , I’m ready for my fix.

Er, the 29th is Tuesday, Monday is the 28th. Anyhoo, I’ll check the schedules both days.

Every promo I’ve seen says April 28. Good timing if they’re planning some especially shocking and/or exciting episodes, since May is a ratings sweeps month.

I think they are only showing 4 new episodes. Not planned probably, just screwed up because of the strike.
