"House creator David Shore has said that the show will &amp;quot;go back to basics&amp;quot; in the upcoming eighth season. The next run of the Fox medical drama will introduce new regular characters played by Odette Annable and Charlyne Yi. &amp;quot;Bringing in new blood into the hospital is always an opportunity,&amp;quot; Shore told TV Guide. &amp;quot;House is at his best when he&amp;#039;s dealing with new people and new situations and making deductions about new people and these situations.&amp;quot; He continued: &amp;quot;I certainly think the way we&amp;#039;re starting this year is really invigorating and we&amp;#039;re going back to our roots a little bit.&amp;quot; Shore insisted that bringing in new characters is &amp;quot;the best way to go back to basics&amp;quot;. &amp;quot;This [move] allows us to take a fresh look at who House is, to get fresh eyes on his character and how unusual he is,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;Through these new characters&amp;#039; viewpoints, we get a jaded view of House.&amp;quot; The showrunner also revealed that the new season of House will focus less on the central character&amp;#039;s love life. &amp;quot;I don&amp;#039;t want [the show] to be about relationships in the sense of who&amp;#039;s sleeping with who,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;At least not in the foreseeable future. It&amp;#039;s about relationships in terms of how these people relate to each other. And the impact House&amp;#039;s world view has on all the people around him.&amp;quot; House will return to Fox on October 3. &amp;gt; House exec: &amp;#039;Cuddy exit won&amp;#039;t be big story&amp;#039; Watch the final scene from the House seventh season finale below:      "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
