I absolutely LOVE Hugh Laurie and House is one of my favorite shows. I've been a fan since the old days and was thrilled to death to see him on American TV.

I also heard that Stephen Fry will be joining the cast of a popular US crime show, though I honestly can't remember which one.

And I also just recently saw the ad for a new series coming in March on the FX channel starring Eddie Izzard and Minnie Driver, both affecting an American accent.
