‘House’s Best Christmas Episode Drastically Changed the Show

Medical miracles are part and parcel of Fox's series House, as the titular doctor played by Hugh Laurie consistently diagnoses and treats rare diseases. But its Christmas episodes deliver a different kind of miracle with a festive backdrop of tinsel and mistletoe in the stark white hospital halls. Humble beginnings with ailing nuns in Season 1 transformed into more genuinely miraculous acts in Season 4, during which Cuddy (Lisa Edelstein) cuts off House's Vicodin supply. But it is the Season 5 Christmas episode that takes the cake, not only featuring the biggest "hallelujah" moment, but also turning into a critical touchstone for the show's favorite couple.
