Fox is betting on House, M.D. for the rest of the season. The network has ordered five additional episodes from the critically praised drama starring Hugh Laurie, bringing the total first-season order to the NBC Universal TV/Heel & Toe Films series to 18 episodes. House has suffered from an anemic lead-in, airing behind the reality flop The Rebel Billionaire: Branson's Quest for the Best on Tuesday. Nevertheless, the new drama has held ground, building significantly on its lead-in and posting series highs in total viewers (6.9 million) and adults 18-49 (2.9 rating/8 share), respectively, in its two most recent airings.

House is executive produced by David Shore, Paul Attanasio, Katie Jacobs and Bryan Singer.
