I am keeping track of the public shout-outs from House-M.D.-related people to Lisa Edelstein (Dr. Lisa Cuddy) on te occasion of her leaving/being dumped from House M.D. as announced on May 17, 2011. Update: A large group of fans organized an ad to be put in the June 13 "Variety Weekly," Hollywood's trade magazine, honoring Lisa Edelstein. I posted the
online version of said ad earlier and the full paper version as well as the list of contributors can be seen at
IWFLE. I'll add shout-outs to that initiative to the list: they are the dates between square brackets. Update no. 2: On June 23, it was
announced that Lisa E would be joining "The Good Wife" for a multi-episode arc come October. I'll add the congratulations and the like for that to the list, this time between curly brackets.

This list will be updated as needed (last updated on 11-20). Let me know if I overlooked anyone. By the way, don't believe the recent TPTB campaign that Lisa E wasn't pushed out but left of her own accord and that was all there was to it. It is at least disingenuous if not a lie. I've said it before: I am inspired by her for not rolling over and let NBCU, Fox and other TPTB treat her poorly. You left with your head held high: bravo!
