Season 6 of ‘House M.D.’: No Romance Between House and Cuddy

The part of the audience that had been waiting for a romance for House and Cuddy since the series beginning or at any time is small indeed. More people stopped watching last season in part to Huddy then anything else.
Abandoning it as soon as possible is the only smart thing to do.

BTW Franka Potente appears to be the love interest as she is shown in the promo kissing House in what will be the two episode season opener that takes place with House in a mental hospital.

Great choice. Huddy romance is not only boring but also incredibly annoying. It's a good choice to take a step back, most fans don't want to see that anyway.

"Gregory House and Lisa Cuddy finally got to reenact what the audiences have been waiting for probably since the beginning of the series..."
Are you kidding me?! Some Huddy fangirls maybe, the rest of the fandom has not been waiting for that crap at all!

I am very disappointed to hear that their will be no continuation of the Huddy romance for awhile but i am sure that it will continue eventually. Their romance is to popular to ignore.

I am one of those NOT waiting for a "Huddy" romance...season five turned me off so badly that even though I taped it I could never rewatch..don't watch the reruns and now I have plenty to tape over. Season 4 was pretty bad (And I was such a rabid fan at one point) but Season 5 was awful...except maybe Birthmarks and the Finale...

Thank you for the relief that is no more House Cuddy romance!!!

i don't know why people hate huddy so much - for me, if the season 7 would be the last one, huddy ending will be great, if house would be finally happy :D I've been Huddy since 1x01, I thought they were married or something when House MD started :D:D:D season 5 is my favorite, 'coz its random, episodes aren't the same like in 1, 2, 3, and we see more of house's feelings. that's great. i know, there are hamerons, even people who connect house with thirteen, but if house can't be with wilson, cuddy is only good person to him. not treating him like mentor (cameron), or like pain in the ass (13), or like just friend (wilson) :D:D i know, people want to watch house just for medicine, but remember, that most of house fans wants to see house happy in the end of series :) and who else could make him happy? sorry for broken english, but i'm from holland :D

Where did you get the idea that a lot of people want the huddy to happen?
I HATE Huddy and I could not be happier if it disappears for good.

Though I've rooted for House and Cuddy since season 1, I wasn't really expecting to see them in a relationship of sorts so early in the game. Shore is a genius sadist and I'm enjoying the ride. Come to think of it, I'm glad they're putting Huddy in the backburner for a while, 'cos that means this storyline will get picked again in the future and meanwhile we get lots of UST and flirty banter. Huddy will never be over. :)

As much as I hate Huddy and Cuddy's baby momma drama, DS and the reporter seem to be saying conflicting things. The reporter seems to be saying Huddy will not be further explored during SEASON 6. David Shore seems to be saying it will not be explored during the FIRST PART of SEASON 6.

Since David Shore is the show's lead producer, I'll have to go with what he says. Also, one of the S5 DVD segments is about Cuddy's baby momma drama, which tells me DS plans to continue the Cuddy baby crapfest in Season 6. We don't get any bloopers but we get a segment on the very BORING and ridculous Cuddy baby drama. I haven't even bothered to order the S5 DVD because I simply hate that storyline.

I only plan to watch the season premiere because I know for certain there will be NO HUDDY. After that, I'll have to check the spoilers and read the H/W LJ east coast live discussion before I watch any episodes beyond that.

I don´t know why people think tha Huddy is over! Can´t you read??? Shore said that "We’re stepping back from it a LITTLE BIT!!!!!. We’re not ignoring it.” “We have to carry forward… It’s going to go someplace eventually. But the beginning of this season!!!!! is primarily focused on House trying to find some semblance of sanity. No one said that afer ther firt half of season six, for example, huddy will start again. I think you have to watsch that audio comentar from Shore, I think that will clarify!!!

The writer of this artikel and other artikel don´t seem to concern themself with the series and the report is very incorrect.

All the Hamerons and Hilsons shouldn´t be too happy at this point.

David Shore's decision to step back temporarily from exploring the House/Cuddy romance makes perfect sense to me. House is in a terrible place mentally and emotionally and needs first of all to repair himself. This will necessarily be the focus of the first arc of season 6.

There is no doubt at all that the abiding attraction between House and Cuddy is a core element of the show and a popular feature for the majority of viewers. Shore and Hugh Laurie, the masterminds behind this great show, will certainly return to further exploration of House's capacity for emotional attachment and his search for a measure of contentment and trust in his life through a relationship with Cuddy. The vivid delusion that ended season 5 established as canon that Cuddy is the one House wants to build a life with.

We have not seen the end of the House/Cuddy arc, which we now understand extends over the lifetime of the characters and of the show. I am happy with the direction that Shore and Laurie have mapped out for their genius creation and I am looking forward eagerly toward the start of the new season in September.

Like so many, I have been waiting patiently since season one for the sizzling relationship between House and Cuddy to reach the boiling over point. I was a bit disappointed to find out that the developments of the season 5 finale were part of House's devastating delusion. But I am considerably cheered by comments from David Shore and Hugh Laurie that while this key relationship will not be the focus of the first part of season 6, it will be continue to be addressed as the seasons proceed.

And no, I am not a fourteen year old fangirl, but rather a professional woman in my late 50's who enjoys the verve, intelligence, style, humor, sexiness, and complexity of the House/Cuddy relationship. I have lots of patience and confidence in the decisions and intent of Shore and co. on this score.

I am relieved they are pulling back from "Huddy." That whole storyline utterly destroyed Cuddy's character and did nothing to add to my enjoyment of the show. Frankly, I sincerely hope they don't revisit it at all, and if they do they only do so long enough to allow Cuddy to regain her dignity by making it clear to House that a relationship between them would never work and that they should remain friends, but nothing else. I don't mind the sexual banter the two engage in, but that's where it ends for me. I wasn't planning to watch this season because I had believe they would be continuing the awful "Huddy" storyline. But now that I know they are pulling back, I'll be tuning in again ... especially now that I've heard House will be moving in with Wilson after he gets out of Rehab. Of all the characters on the show, Wilson is the one who has the best chemistry with House, and Hugh Laurie and Robert Sean Leonard are a pleasure to watch!

I enjoy very much the banter and tension between House and Cuddy, and I think that they together with Wilson have the best chemistry on the show. I no longer take the "I hate Huddy" comments serious, because I've seen enough of them to know that it's the same people posting everywhere and that the majority of them are either House/Cameron, House/wilson or House/Stacy fans. The people I know who watch the show and who are not "shippers" or even hard core fans, really enjoy the chemistry between House and Cuddy, and take it as a given that they eventually will end up together. So even if it takes four years we'll enjoy the ride!

I enjoy the banter and tension between House and Cuddy, and I hope they continue to explore that. Most people I know who watch the show as regular non-shipping fans also enjoy the chemistry between the two and look at it as an important part of the show. As a fan I hope they end up together in the end, but however long it takes - I'm going to enjoy the ride in the meantime!

I completely agree with you. Cuddy is such a strong, independent woman and I love her character. But she and House just don't work as a couple. It makes her seem....weak and unprofessional, so I hope that Huddy never comes back to the show (though there are so many Huddy-shippers this is probably unlikely). Also, I just don't see any chemistry between them. The way House is with Cuddy is the way he's acts with basically everyone - kind of teasing, flirtatious - but I just don't see any romantic chemistry between them. He may respect her and find her attractive, but he's not in love with her, and I don't think he'll ever be.

I just can't wait to see Hugh Laurie's acting in the 2 hr. preview on Sept. 21st. at 8 p.m. FOX Monday. I KNOW he's going to be AMAZING!
As far as Huddy is concerned, I'm glad they are putting that on hold.
I would much rather House stay single until the show's last season.
Then, Stacy comes back, divorced, and she and House live happily ever after. That is what I would LOVE to see.
I think House still loves Stacy and THAT is the hole in his heart. He didn't want to let her go but he knew he wasn't capable of changing enough for her at that time. I think by the end of the series, House will be ready to be with Stacy.
Oh and more CLINIC DUTY!!!!!!
P.S. ADORE RSL!

i think House first needs to deal with his own issues. And then, later, he cna have a real relationship. I am a big Huddy-Fan (and I am not a Teen anymore). they are both alpha people. And she is the only one that House really respects.
It is very intelligent and entertaining.
I would love them to have a relationship like in the old movies, Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn like !!!

I am 100% HUDDY

Right own girl!!" I, also, am a 50 something professional woman who loves the House/Cuddy Romance part of the show as much as I do the medical part. I am in the medical field, so the romance part, to me, is a very important and realistic part of the relationship of these two very intelligent characters. The chemistry between them is undeniable. I think Hugh Laurie is so handsome, and Lisa Edelstein is so beautiful. They are perfect together. If the House/Cuddy romance comes to an end, I will quit watching the show. I've been a nurse for 30 years and have had all the medical drama that I could ever want or need. I, like you, am not a 14 year old fangirl, although I do like House, M.D. fanfiction. I am addicted to it between seasons, and when nothing is happening between House and Cuddy on the episodes, like Season 4, (worst season ever, except the last 2 episodes), Huddy forever!!!

i must say am in love with house. his arrogant manner and wit turn me on. oh and yeah cuddy is definitely a great match for house since she can matchis challenges word for word i cant wait to watch season 6 i already bought the first 5 serasons which i repeat everytime am bored there certainly isn't a more worthy programme in the tv to watch and no one can play the house part better than hugh laurie, however how he keeps up with the limp beats me!

I for one personally cannot wait untill house and cuddy can live out their onscreen romance! I do agree though that this break is for the best, the medicine must come first. The twists an d turns this season have me on edge waiting to see how it turns out! Although, I litteraly almost cried last night as it was revealed Dr. Cameron was leaving Dr. Chase! Yikes! This relationship I knew would not last but this short? Come on Shore! Lucas and Cuddy...NOOOO! They (I have noticed) have absolutely no chemistry between them and it is undeniable the age difference between them. I believe why they brought him back was to add characters back on the show which is was supprisingly convient in the next episode the old team was scavenged back up by master mind House. Anyways can't wait to see how the second half of the season roles out!!!

Huddy Fan?- Yes!

In my opinion, i really like the who chemistry between House and Cuddy. I feel that they would make a potential great couple, but i am not sure I am all for it happening this season. I have to admit that i would like the flirting to become more "intense," but a full on relationship right now is not what people want. I am a HUGE Huddy fan, don't get me wrong, but i think they should continue what they have together on the same tone. Also, SHE HAS TO BREAK UP WITH LUCAS!!!! I KNOW HE IS NICE TO HER BUT THEY HAVE NO CHEMISTRY AT ALL AND TO MILK THIS THING ANY LONGER WOULD KILL IT!!!! Truly though, she has to break up with him and I think it is coming soon!
