Lin-Manuel Miranda to Appear on TV's House

"Ladies and gentleman, I give you the first official House scoop of the new season: Tony winner Lin-Manuel Miranda has been cast as House's psych hospital roomie, sources confirm to me exclusively.

Miranda, best known for writing and starring in the Broadway musical In The Heights, will appear in at least two episodes beginning with the show's sixth season premiere this fall.

A House insider tells me producers are looking for other "interesting actors" to populate the psychiatric facility that became House's home in last month's finale. So if you're an actor who excels at riding the crazy train, forward this story to your agent ASAP..."

Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

that's an odd statement. Is there something about house that you find objectionable, cause its a really good show.
when ducks grow thumbs then maybe my opinion will change.

Same here. I don't watch House, but I'll definitely check the episode out with Lin in it.


And while we are on the subject of broadway actors appearing in tv shows, Norbert Leo Butz was just in a new episode of Law and Order: CI called "In Treatment." I haven't catched it yet, but I'm pretty sure he *SPOILER* plays the killer. *END SPOILER*

...I'm just not a fan.

I'm glad they're actually going to set a couple of episodes in the mental hospital rather than having House be magically cured by the fall. Possibly that's because I really want to see House-as-McMurphy.

This is amazing news! I'm a HUGE fan of both 'House' and 'In The Heights'. This is like the best of both worlds for me!

He's wonderful! So far he's really the only thing about the ep that I like. re: Lin-Manuel Miranda to Appear on TV's House Great job playing a manic person, IMO.
Jimmy, what are you doing here in the middle of the night? It's almost 9 PM!

So, I'm in love with Lin. Just for the record. He's awesome.

Although I thought the talent show thing was a forced plot point, the episode as a whole was excellent and Miranda definitely stole every scene he was in. He has a very sensitive face, and seems comfortable on camera. Good job!
