STEPHEN FRY has prompted rumours he’ll reunite with one-time comedy sidekick HUGH LAURIE in an upcoming episode of his hit U.S. TV show HOUSE – after visiting his pal on the set.

After meeting at Cambridge University, the pair appeared in a string of TV shows for more than a decade – before Laurie moved to the U.S. to pursue a movie and TV career Stateside.

Fry admitted last year (09) he was house hunting in Los Angeles – where House is filmed – and would love to appear in the drama series.

And now House director Greg Yaitanes has fuelled rumours Fry is shooting a cameo on the show, by revealing the star had visited the set.

Writing on Twitter.com, Yaitanes plugs Fry’s own blog, revealing, “No better time then when he’s sitting on your set (visiting) to follow @stephenfry.”

TVGuide Magazine published list of “Couples we want to split”. Luddy in on the list

Cuddy and Lucas: House
Awful pairing. It’s just kinda creepy for some reason that I can’t quite put my finger on. Lucas is just kind of sleazy, and if we want to see Cuddy with a sleaze, we want House! — Maverick152004

The Michael Weston-fronted House spin-off may have been condemned, but Fox remains keen on expanding the franchise. Network president Kevin Reilly tells me the hit’s EPs, David Shore and Katie Jacobs, have a “standing offer” to create another series. “It could be a direct spin-off or a completely new show,” says Reilly. “Ideally, I would love David and Katie to have their own [two-hour block].”

Regarding the duo’s first stab at a House offshoot, the one that would’ve focused on Weston’s private detective, Lucas Douglas, Reilly says they “kind of stuck their toe in the water and just didn’t feel like it worked. The [character] worked [on] House, but [he] didn’t really work as [his] own thing.

“They have really high standards,” he adds. “These are not guys who commercially are going to chase something just to announce they have a spinoff and then figure out the show later on. They’re probably the most thorough producers… I’ve ever worked with.”

For her part, Jacobs is game to try again. “I would like to do a 9 o’clock show,” she says. “Maybe a spin-off or maybe just another show from the two of us.” (Shore is currently shepherding a remake of The Rockford Files for NBC.) One way or another, she’s resigned herself to the fact that a new show is “the only way I seem to be able to penetrate the 9 o’clock hour” now that House is firmly entrenched at 8. “As a producer, you would never pick Mondays at 8. But having said that, the network put [House] there, and it seems to be working so I think they’re smarter about these things than we are. So we’re probably going to stay at 8.”

What say you House fans? Would you rather Shore and Jacobs revisit the idea of a House spin-off or develop something completely different? And if you pick the former, share your dream spin-off scenarios below!

House and the team rush to treat an ailing college football star in time for the patient to compete in NFL tryouts. But when the patient experiences an onslaught of varied and unusual symptoms, the team has trouble reaching a consensus on how to effectively treat him in time. Meanwhile, Foreman’s brother Marcus (guest star Jones) makes a surprise visit to the hospital in the all-new “Moving the Chains” episode of HOUSE airing Monday, Feb. 1

This may not entirely appease House fans frustrated by Cameron’s abrupt exit earlier this season, but it’s bound to help: Jennifer Morrison’s imminent comeback, she hints, should give her character, and viewers, closure.

“The audience is going to get the information they were looking for,” says the actress, who declined to confirm the exact length or timing of her return except to tease that it occurs during a ”really smart episode.”

As for the circumstances surrounding her surprising departure, Morrison is more forthcoming, eager to make it clear that the decision to leave was not hers. “I love the show, and I love [Cameron],” she insists. “Under no circumstances would I ever decide on my own to leave.”

So what happened? She recounts: Executive producers David Shore and Katie Jacobs “came to me as we were leading up to episode 8 — which is the episode where I left — and said, ‘This is where we see the show creatively going, and [we're writing you out].’ And they very generously said, ‘We wanted to let you know so you knew you were available for other things, should they be offered.’ As far as I knew, there was nothing more.”

Opportunity ended up knocking on Morrison’s door soon after: She was cast in the Broadway revival of The Miracle Worker. And “right around the same time, [Shore and Jacobs] had an idea to [bring] some resolution to Cameron’s storyline. So very generously as well, the play has accommodated my missing some rehearsal time to do the show.”

And what about the future beyond the play, which will run at least through the spring? Although Morrison remains contractually bound to House next season, “I don’t believe that they have plans to pick up my option,” she confesses. “That does not mean I won’t be back for a handful of episodes, but it does mean I probably will not be a series regular next season.”

Naturally, looking back on her six-year run is bittersweet for her. But more sweet than bitter, it seems. “[Working on House has] been the most incredible blessing I could ever imagine,” she says. It’s been the most incredible people to work with and the most incredible character. But I have to respect the producers’ ideas of where the story is going.”

FOX confirmed Thursday (Jan. 14) that Jennifer Morrison (Cameron) will indeed be returning to “House” later this season, and though no details about when or why her character will come back have been released, there are a few rumors floating around.

Sources tell that Morrison may be on set as early as Friday and is scheduled to work through the weekend.

Word is, Cameron and her on-screen husband Chase (Jesse Spencer) will be featured heavily in the episode and that star Hugh Laurie is set to direct.

FOX wouldn’t confirm this bit of information, but if Morrison is in fact on set this week, she will definitely be following Mr. Laurie’s lead. Executive producer Katie Jacobs mentioned in an interview with me earlier this week that she had just come from a casting session for the hour Hugh is helming.

But what’s even more intriguing is the storyline the “House” writers have apparently concocted for Morrison’s “swan song.” I’m not saying we’ll never ever see Cameron again. I’m simply saying that it sounds as if this particular ep will make up for the hurried manner in which she exited the show earlier this season.

And I’ll leave it at that, because based on what I’ve been told, it is going to be a phenomenal, emotional, heartbreaking and beautiful hour of television. In other words, “House” at its best, and I don’t want to ruin the experience for anyone.
