House M.D., a television series about a curmudgeonly medical doctor solving extremely difficult patient cases, is heavily inspired by Sherlock Holmes, to the point where some consider it a medical spin on Doyle's format. The parallels are obvious: the main lead Gregory House is Sherlock Holmes, his assistant James Wilson fills the role of John Watson, and at one point he even lives at the same address of the famous detective.

What is incorrect about this phrase?

James Wilson is not House's assistant. He is the Head of the Oncology Department and acts as House's best friend within the series. House usually has a team of assistants helping to solve his cases, although Wilson may occasionally appear to help out if the case needs his expertise.
