Stephen Colbert regularly mentions House, MD‘s Dr. Gregory House on his show, and last night House returned the attention by displaying a framed photo of Stephen Colbert on House’s shelf:

Since Dr. House probably wouldn’t have a framed photo of a famous comedian, I’ve decided that this means that House and “Stephen Colbert the character” are old best friends, and that the two shows exist in the same TV universe. House would be friends with a conservative blowhard TV host. It makes total sense! Done and done. (Via No Fact Zone, who’ve dug up some videos of Colbert mentioning House.)

    is this anything like Superman wearing Batman underwear (or better yet Chuck Norris underwear) – because I’m totally into that sort of thing.

    Its a shout-back to the picture that Colbert has of House on his shelf. Colbert has the pictures of his favorite tv doctors on his shelf behind his desk: House, Cosby and Rick Springfield (for whatever soap he played a doctor on.)

    Even better, House has TiVo’d “Blackadder” before.
