Mira Sorvino is about to make a “House” call - guest starring as a psychiatrist on the hit Fox series.

The Oscar-winning actress became a fan of the show while pregnant with her first child. At the Golden Globes a couple of years back, she found herself at the same table as Hugh Laurie, and enthusiastically expressed her love of the show. She never thought it would lead to a guest spot. Canada.com reports:

Sorvino wasn’t looking to do a TV show. But not long after meeting Laurie, she got a call from House’s producers. They wanted her to do a guest appearance as a psychiatrist stranded at a research station in Antarctica who comes down with a mysterious ailment; Dr. House has to treat her long distance, via webcam.

The episode, “Frozen”, will air after the Superbowl on Fox in the US, and on Global TV in Canada later that evening. Will you be tuning into this new episode of House on Superbowl Sunday? I know I’ll be watching.
