The biggest House problem that became apparent as the seasons went by was that the show never developed a supporting cast that was worthy of Laurie’s performance or the show’s ingenious concept. I exclude from this, of course, Robert Sean Leonard, who, as I have written repeatedly over the years, gave a magnificently sustained performance that could be used in any drama or media studies class in how to be a supporting player. Never showy, Leonard nonetheless took firm hold of every scene that hinged upon his presence, and right from the start, he had a very clear concept of how to have Wilson go toe-to-toe with House while being meticulous about never communicating that he as an actor desired to go toe-to-toe with Laurie. This wasn’t modesty; it was a great craftsman at work, ever vigilant.-Entertainment Weekly's review of 8x22 Everybody Dies

There are two sets of actors that immediately come to mind: Michael Emerson [who plays Ben] and Terry O'Quinn [who plays Locke] from Lost; Hugh Laurie [House] and Robert Sean Leonard [Wilson] from House M.D.. The chemistry between these actors is amazing, and I can't take my eyes off them when they're on the screen together, especially Emerson and O'Quinn. It's as though they were born to act with each other. -Rhonda
