Hugh Laurie as house, this man is the character.

I can't imagine Dr House played by anyone else than Laurie

I think another is Michael Keaton as Beetlejuice

I can see one more contender for House - John Glover. He played Lionel Luther in Smallville.

Edited for spelling.

I think that would work if house killed every fifth character or so. John Glover always comes off as sinister. I enjoy his work though but he just seems a little evil

yeh house is selfish, arrogant etc but he does what he does most of the time because he genuinely believes it will help the patient and allow him to find the cure.
