As reported previously, Universal Home Entertainment will be releasing the fourth season DVD of House, in which pre-orders are presently being accepted by Amazon prior to its official release date on August 19. Now, more details have emerged that will hopefully give fans more reasons to purchase the much awaited set.
The fourth season of House premiered on September 25, 2007 and was condensed to 16 instead of the typical 24 installments due to the interruption of the 2007-2008 WGA Strike. The season kicked off with House (Hugh Laurie) working fast to diagnose a young woman who survived a collapsed building, without a team since he fired Chase (Jesse Spencer), and Foreman (Omar Epps) and Cameron (Jennifer Morrison) quit.

FOX is the most creative network around. You might hate some of the shows it produces (cough The Moment of Truth cough), but you have to give FOX props for the way it creates its schedule. If there is a new series the network is proud of, FOX promotes the hell out of it, and often premiere it after a veteran, highly rated series for good measure. Thanks to American Idol, FOX constructs two very distinct Fall and Winter/Spring seasons, dodging the inclination to air most of its big shows year-round. FOX has embraced the idea of airing its serial dramas with little or no breaks. Today, FOX released the schedule for their Fall premieres. There are a handful of two-hour premieres planned, including one for the most highly-anticipated new series of the Fall, the J.J. Abrams produced Fringe.
