7x19 'Last Temptation' - Fans Ask: Olivia Wilde & Jacob Peterson #3 + Vlog with Liz Friedman and David Foster
Amber Tamblyn Interview: House Exit
Amber Tamblyn on Bittersweet House Departure: 'I Didn't Want To Go'
By Michael Ausiello
In the end, Martha Masters just couldn’t play House. Yes, on Monday, Amber Tamblyn’s season-long run on Fox’s medical drama came to an end when her by-the-books character spent a painful day playing by Dr. Crankypants’ rules – in other words, none. While the PYMD’s fate was left up in the air, Tamblyn’s next step is pretty much set in stone: The Joan of Arcadia alum is developing a new Fox series with House exec Katie Jacobs and The Wire co-creator Ed Burns that will find her playing a public school teacher. Just hours before her swan song aired, the actress explained why she opted to not permanently call House home and revealed what Hugh Laurie did that brought her to tears. (No, the nice kind of tears… You’ll see.)
TVLINE | Do you think House drove Masters out of the medical profession or just Princeton-Plainsboro?
That’s a good question. It’s left open… I think she is going to still practice [medicine]. At the end of the day, she just couldn’t do what House does.
TVLINE | House creator David Shore has made no secret of the fact that he would’ve loved to have kept you around full-time. At what point did you decide you were going to leave to pursue this new series with Ed Burns and Katie Jacobs?
I’ll be perfectly honest. The three of us – me, Katie Jacobs and David Shore – were talking about doing something together. That was the original situation. And it just seemed kind of impossible for David to be working on more than one incredible show [at the same time]… I didn’t really want to separate myself from either one of them. I think they’re both so fantastic. But realistically, we knew it was not going to be able to work out that way, so Katie and I got his blessing and went and did our own thing… Thirteen episodes was always what I signed up to do. That was the plan all along. I never had any intention of staying longer than 13 episodes. That got really emotionally difficult toward the end because I didn’t want to go. But Katie and I fell in love with this other project and I knew the time was right.
Exclusive: Is Robert Sean Leonard Leaving House?
TVLINE | Was there ever a moment when you considered sticking around?
I don’t think I could’ve. I like to jump around a lot. I feel this way a lot about projects. I felt this way about Joan of Arcadia, because people were really upset about that ending and they always ask and I always say, “I think it’s better to have two really fantastic seasons of television than… Who knows what would’ve happened after that?” I don’t like to get comfortable where I am. I think it’s dangerous to be too comfortable in what you’re doing.
TVLINE | Which of your House castmates will you still be friends with five years from now?
All of them. I text all of them almost every day. Peter Jacobson does not save my number, so I’ll text him something and he’ll be like, “Who is this?!” And I’m like, “Your worst nightmare, jerk.” Even Olivia [Wilde]. I only worked with her for a week but she’s so awesome. We’ve been texting back and forth. We’re going to try to do dinner next time she’s in town. I really had a Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz moment. I felt like I was coming out of some amazing dream that I’m sad is ending. But I’m also excited because I get to take one of those people from the dream and make a new dream.
House Renewal Drama: Where Do Things Stand?
TVLINE | Did you get a nice send-off?
Hugh Laurie asked me if I wanted to go get drinks after work one day, and I said, “I’d love to.” So I put on my best red lipstick and went to meet him for drinks and he had rented out a restaurant and thrown me a big surprise going-away party. Everybody was there. It was like this whole sit-down dinner. And Hugh gave this really sweet speech about us working together. I was in tears. It blew my mind. And this was on a work night too. I think that’s a pretty rad send-off… No one’s ever done that for me. I called my boyfriend afterwards crying because I was really touched by it, especially since I’m not a main cast member.

SPOILERS: Ask Ausiello - April 13, 2011
Question: How does House plan to write Amber Tamblyn off the show? —Paul
Ausiello: Sounds like Masters is gonna crack! “She’s going to potentially break one of her own rules in a very interesting way,” aspiring TV teach Amber Tamblyn says of her final episode. “And it’s going to break Masters a bit, which will be really interesting to see because she’s kind of been unbreakable, though she’s always given the hint of being vulnerable. She could be blown over any second — and that’s what you’re about to see.”

Inside TV: House Spoilers - April 8, 2011
House: Can’t they keep both Thirteen (Olivia Wilde) and Masters (Amber Tamblyn)? She really is fitting in nicely with the group. – Dee
Agreed, Dee. And Wilde is right there with us. “I only got to spend one episode with her, and I love that woman. She is SO talented,” Wilde tells EW. “I think that there’s definitely a future for us. We were making up all sorts of spin-offs [laughs] because we call her Scrambler, so we’re like, Scrambler and Thirteen, Scorteen and Scrambler, Skirteen. We’re coming up with all these ideas!” Joking aside, Wilde did share a bit of good news: The door is left open for a return after Masters’ last episode. “I’m in her goodbye episode — but that’s really her episode. She does fantastic work in it,” she says. “There’s always a chance for her to come back.
Is Wilson leaving House?!?! I’d die. His friendship with House MAKES the show. This can’t happen. Please tell me this isn’t true. — Morgan
Hold your hysterics there, Mo. As reported by TVLine, Sean Robert Leonard’s contract negotiations are still ongoing, so he is officially not signed up for next season. But that’s pretty standard. (See the Desperate Housewives question below.) It’s part of the business, so we shouldn’t necessarily read much into it at this point. The good news? I hear Wilson isn’t in any immediate danger come finale time. No major cliffhanger for him, either. Breathe easy, my friend. (Meanwhile, also try to forget how easily the show off’d Kutner when Kal Penn decided to leave the show. Gulp.) Sorry, I had to address it, but I stand by my not-worried stance.

TV Insider: News - April 5, 2011
On House, how does Thirteen still have a job if she’s been in prison? She can’t still be a doctor, right? — Mary
Your question is answered in Thirteen’s big return episode next Monday. Olivia Wilde teases, “He definitely does her a favor, and that proves to her how valuable she is on the team.”
We know that House knows Thirteen’s secret by the end of next week. Does everyone else find out, too? — Claire
Of course they do. But it’s their reactions you should be asking me about. “She ends up really needing the help of one of them [but] in order to get that help, she has to tell him what happened,” Wilde says. “I think her relationships with them have changed.”

http://www.tvline.com/2011/04/ask-ausiello-spoilers-smallville-glee-castle/
Question: Any news about Jennifer Morrison coming back to House? —Tanya
Ausiello: It’s definitely not happening this season. “I have not been contacted by anyone over there,” Morrison tells TVLine. “I would do whatever they wanted me to do… Cameron is a fabulous character and it changed my life to play her… But it’s not in my control. People seem to think it is. I feel bad because fans really want answers and I don’t have them. I wish I did. My guess would be that I will probably never be on [House] again.” Morrison is hardly hurting for work these days. In addition to her recurring gig on How I Met Your Mother, she has a starring role in ABC’s fairytale-themed pilot Once Upon a Time. “Honestly, it’s not a sore subject for me,” she says of her House departure. “My life has gone on. I’m thrilled I was available to be [in HIMYM]. I’m thrilled I was available to do the new pilot. These are really exciting new things.”
Question: I’m really looking forward to next week’s House. Anything else you can share about House and Thirteen’s little road trip? —Max
Ausiello: The episode opens with Dr. Crankydoodle awaiting Thirteen’s release from a New Jersey correctional facility. But that’s old news. Here’s some new news: The hour ends with her waiting for him when he gets out of jail. And whereas he greets her with a freshly made martini, she… is less fancy.

Hugh Laurie - Guitar Aficionado Magazine
NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - April 5, 2011)
http://www.marketwire.com/press-release/House-Star-Hugh-Laurie-on-the-Cover-of-Guitar-Aficionado-Magazine-LSE-futr-1422961.htm
Hugh Laurie, better known to American audiences as the titular character on House M.D., is the cover star of Guitar Aficionado's May/June 2011 issue. Fans of Fox's long-running medical drama know that the curmudgeonly Dr. Greg House is as likely to pick up an axe and strum a few desolate notes as he is to solve a perplexing medical mystery in under 45 minutes -- and sometimes, he does both simultaneously.
But House isn't alone in his love of Gibson Flying Vs and Les Pauls (both featured on the show). Laurie is a strummer off the set, too -- making him the perfect choice to grace the latest cover of Guitar Aficionado.
In addition to sharing his collection of Fenders, Paul Reed Smiths and Martins with Guitar Aficionado, Laurie opens up to the magazine about his lifelong love of all things musical. Besides the guitar, Laurie plays the piano, the sax, the harmonica and the drums. He talks to Guitar Aficionado about how his bluesy debut solo album, Let Them Talk, out this fall, differs from the musical comedy he once often performed on the BBC.
He also demonstrates just how different he is from the guarded Dr. House: "With the music I'm playing now, there's nowhere to hide," he says. "I'm standing there at the mic, playing music I adore, and I'm baring my heart and soul. It's scary."
