Could Fox's House Jump Networks?


Variety is reporting negotiations between Universal Media Studios and Fox for an eighth season of House have raised the question of whether-or-not the popular medical drama will be a part of Fox’s May upfront presentation. Reportedly,
UMS, owned by NBCUniversal, has given Fox an extension on the window of negotiation exclusivity. That ends Friday. If the two sides can't come to an agreement, UMS will offer the show to competing networks including, of course, the Peacock, which would likely be more than happy to take the series away from Fox.
In other House related news, working Dr. House appears to have paid off for Amber Tamblyn. According to Deadline, House executive producer Katie Jacobs, The Wire co-creator Ed Burns and Tamblyn have received a script commitment for a new project starring Tamblyn as “a young teacher in the world of public education in America.”
Meanwhile, Zap2it is reporting Olivia Wilde will return to House for its 150th episode as Thirteen on April 11.

I wondered if House was going to be renewed. Well if Fox doesn't want it anymore, I can definitly see House doing well elsewhere.
