Ha. Funny you ask that, as I just discovered this morning that it was a network mandate.
Angel: Will you just shut up for once?! Illyria: What? Angel: My God, the speechifying. Has it ever occurred to you that now might not be the best time for when-we-were-muck stories?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Great, and very spoilery, article on S3 from the Chicago Tribune: [link]

Someone has awesomely transcribed the TCA upfront interview WITH spoilerfont for spoilerphobes. As Fay would say: bless.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
This [link] says that House will be on Tuesdays at 9:00pm while this [link] says 8:00pm. Does anyone know which one is correct?

I think it will start out at 8 but move back to 9 by the time VM starts.

I hope it's a funny aneurysm!
This is just speculation, but I think the opening arc being 9 eps takes into account the need for time to re-introduce the characters and the show's setting while dealing with a new mystery. Once the characters and setting are incorporated into show for new viewers (Who's that bald dude in the leather jacket?), the following arcs won't need time to account for that.
I thought House was going off the air by the time VM comes back because of baseball?

Witness the Comic-Con promo, which is pretty much the best marketing the show could ever get if the public were allowed to see it.

Hey. New board.
Dude, that's really really good. But it's longer than they want PILOTS to be before the ratings jump, so...
