House came to an end after eight seasons this week, and the series went out as unpredictably as the curmudgeonly doctor himself. The final episode also saw the return of several original cast members, and whether you watched or not, it's fun to see actors like Jennifer Morrison, Olivia Wilde, Kal Penn, and Sela Ward back on the scene. Check them all out as you say your final farewell to House.

Rumors have been circulating for a while now, but now it's official: Fox is canceling House at the end of the current season. The Hugh Laurie medical drama has run for eight seasons, but has lost steam lately, due in part to Lisa Edelstein's exit from the series.

I hate to say it, but modern townhouses have begun to look all the same to me. I see plenty with rich wood siding, floor-to-ceiling glass windows, and sleek white façades, but I rarely pass by one that really wows me.

Maybe pro-lifer du jour Justin Bieber would favor safe and legal abortions after watching this ad. House actress Lisa Edelstein stars in the new spot from MoveOn.org that's taking on new legislation attempting to limit access to abortion.
In the ad, Lisa's voice-over says: "Decades ago, women suffered through horrifying back alley abortions. Or, they used dangerous methods when they had no other recourse. So when the Republican Party launched an all out assault on women's health, pushing bills to limit access to vital services, why is the GOP trying to send women back . . . to the back alley?"
She's then seen reaching for a coat hanger in a closet. Nancy Pelosi has called the bill disrespectful of the judgment of American women and "the most comprehensive and radical assault on women's health in our lifetime." Do you think a powerful commercial like this one can change people's minds?
