Season 5 of House MD began airing on September 16, 2008. From September to December 2008, it aired every Tuesday at 8.00 PM EST. House MD was moved to Monday 8.00 PM EST starting January 19, 2009. The season finale “Both Sides Now” was shown last May 11, 2009. The season finale was really a cliffhanger. House thought all along that he slept with Cuddy. But the fact is Cuddy never went home with him and he spent the night popping Vicodin instead of detoxing.
Kutner appeared, presumably for the last time, as part of House’s hallucination. The hallucination arc has been on going for three episodes and the finale is the best among the hallucination story arc.
No explanation on Kutner’s suicide. I guess the writers would just leave it as that. Kutner’s suicide is really a blow to all House MD fans. House checked in a rehab facility and I guess this is where Season 6 would begin.
The link for the Season 5 finale is up. Again thanks to Simon of HouseMDVideos.com for providing excellent online links to all the House MD episodes. We would have to wait for at least 4 more months for Season 6. But until then, catch all the Season 5 episodes below.
