The Emmy Awards have been awarded annually since 1949 by the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences to honor excellence in television.[9] They are considered to be one of the four major awards in America for the performing arts — together with the Academy Awards (film), Tony Awards (theatre) and Grammy Awards (music).[10][11][12][13] House has been nominated for Primetime Emmy Awards, which are given to honor excellence in acting and writing in primetime television,[14] as well as Creative Arts Emmys, which are presented in recognition of technical and other related areas in American television programming.[15]
After its first season run in 2005, House received five Emmy Award nominations, of which three were for Creative Arts Emmys.[16] It failed to gain a nomination for Outstanding Drama Series but did, however, win the award for Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series.[17] The show did get nominated for Outstanding Drama Series in 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009, but did not manage to win the award in either of these four nominations. In 2006 House was nominated for four Emmys, but failed to win.[18] Next year, the show received four nominations, and won a Creative Arts Emmy for make-up.[19] The following year, at the 60th Primetime Emmy Awards, the show, again, received four nominations but only received one Primetime Emmy Award, for director Greg Yaitanes for Outstanding Directing in a Drama Series.[20] House received another three nominations in 2009 and in 2010, and two more nominations in 2011. However, it only won two Creative Arts Emmy Awards for sound mixing in 2009 and 2011, and failed to win any nominations altogether in 2012 for its final season.
Hugh Laurie, who portrays the title character has been nominated for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for every season except the second and the last one. Despite the six nominations, Laurie has never won the award,[21] which has been regarded by some critics in the entertainment industry as among the biggest snubs in the award's history.[22][23][24][25][26][27][28]

House has been nominated for awards at various Guild and society ceremonies. Show creator David Shore also received an award from the Lupus Foundation of America, for raising awareness for Lupus, a disease mentioned frequently on the show.[155] The American Film Institute selected the show as one of the best television programs of 2005.[156] The same year, House received a Peabody Award for achievement in electronic media,[157] it also received two PGA Award nominations in 2006 and 2007.[158][159]
"House has redefined the medical television show. No longer a world where an idealized doctor has all the answers or a hospital where gurneys race down the hallways, House's focus is on the pharmacological—and the intellectual demands of being a doctor. The trial-and-error of new medicine skillfully expands the show beyond the format of a classic procedural, and at the show's heart, a brilliant but flawed physician is doling out the prescriptions—a fitting symbol for modern medicine."
