Good news for “House” fans who couldn’t stay up till midnight to see Sunday's post-Super Bowl episode. Fox just announced it will repeat (sorry, “encore”) the South Pole hour guest-starring Mira Sorvino on Friday, Feb. 15 at 9 p.m.
“House” will continue to “encore” at that Friday hour through April 18, Fox says.
Thirty million viewers watched the Sunday airing. Sez the net, “Sunday night’s ‘House’ was the show’s highest rated episode ever across all demos and the highest rated scripted program on any network in two years among Adults 18-49 and Total Viewers. Additionally, the episode was Fox’ highest rated scripted series telecast in over 10 years in Adults 18-49 as well as in 11 years in Total Viewers.”
Another new episode airs tonight (Tuesday, Feb. 5) at 9 p.m., as Hugh Laurie’s character digests the Sunday news flash that best bud Wilson (Robert Sean Leonard) is dating the Cutthroat [Witch] he cut from his medical team (Anne Dudek).
