I can't stand it anymore. Why do they always have to ask the same questions? Hugh Laurie is one of the most interesting and complex actors and not just the guy who plays House. He can not only do a perfect American accent and rides a motorbike. He is damn clever and witty as hell. He is the author of The Gun Seller, directed films, has a dog ... You know, there is so much more about him than is accent!

"Perhaps the most surprising thing about me is that there is absolutely nothing surprising about me. At all." Hugh Laurie

Oh, I think there are a number of surprising things about Hugh Laurie. We just have to ask the right questions!

PS: I really adore Jay Leno and especially Craig. I just wanted to make a point. ;)

  • Seriously people... House is good, but Hugh Laurie is SO much more than that... What about his Blackadder days?!

  • Are you implying that talk shows are all the same vapid and banal crap? That is just so untrue.

  • As an American, I would like to point out that I do not watch House (watched the first season, then lost interest) but Instead appreciate Mr Laurie from things he has done in Britain, using his real accent. Some of my favorite (favourite) shows are Blackadder, Jeeves and Wooster, and A Bit of Fry and Laurie. I find it rather depressing that I seem to be the only one of my countrymen who can fathom that a British actor actually had a whole career IN THE UK before coming over here!

  • Lo

  • BLACKADDER! BLACKADDER!

  • @savvysearch Take Lucy Punch for example. She performed so well in "Bad Teacher" I was shocked to find out she is British and when I heard her speak with British accent at a press conference.

  • A lot of actors can do great american accents. It's not like Laurie's is the greatest anyone's ever done. The focus is just bizarre.

  • Talk show host: So, you are British aren't you?

    Hugh: Yes, I am

    Next Interview

    Talk show host: So, you are British aren't you?

    Hugh: Yes, I am

    If I was an actor, I would NOT go on talk shows in the US for this reason. II think I should end up telling the presenter to change the record, or just fuck off. I mean I think most people know he is from England, and if they don't, I don't know where they have been living for the last 5 years.

  • He is a very famous actor in England. It's so bothersome thats all anyone EVER wants to talk about is his American accent in House.

  • @KarioDudeRBN

    Isn't Fortysomething great? One of the overlooked shows Hugh is in. And A Bit is fantastic! Wish I could watch em for the first time again!

  • @Orlabobz that's what I've been doing lately. Watched all 6 episodes of Fortysomething and I'm starting on A Bit of Fry and Laurie today.

  • The real problem is that they do this with everyone. Every single guest on every show gets the same damn questions over and over again. It's especially annoying with people like Hugh Laurie and Michael C Hall. They are clever, interesting, talented people that just get asked the same crap over and over.
