With most sitcoms when they do a game show episode, the "main character" loses a heart-breaker at the last minute. Because Barney is already really well off and winning didn't mean a much to him in terms of his financial well-being, as it would for most sitcom characters, the writers smartly went another route to make him a dominant player who won. I found that quite refreshing.Bob Barker =and doogie tells the audiance "no, no, no" and nails the correct price.
I agree. The key thing is that we likely won't be bombarded with mopey Ted next season (aka 1st season Ted) - assuming this gets renewed.
My power was off last night....can anyone give me a brief synapsis?
Thanks!
Robin Sparkles was quite funny.
So there is no guarantee it will be back? I thought it was a fairly sucesfull show?
"The Class" wasn't a bad show, but definitely not the show that HIMYM is. Simply swapping the slots would probably do the trick if it's "The Class" that's bringing down the ratings, which is where HIMYM is now. I don't pay attention to the ratings, so I'm not sure. I guess we'll find out exactly what the Monday lineup looks like tomorrow when CBS announces their fall lineup.It's on the fall schedule, slotted for 8:30 Mondays -- behind "The Class".Darth Cheney said:Prediction: by mid-season "The Class" will be shelved and the timeslot will be taken over by HIMYM.
That would be legen......wait for it...
I hope you're not lactose intolerant...
7 I think...........He had 10 used two in the Robin sparkles episode and one on Barney when he was doing the lame show.
He had the choice of 10 on the spot, or 5 at random moments. He chose 5. There are only 3 left. Only 1 of the slaps in the Slap Bet/"Robin Sparkles" episode count toward the 5.
Starting the show off with this was awesome. So was the "awesomness" poster in back of Barney at his office (alluded to in a previous episode). Also a nice touch to put in the umbrella at the beginning...hopefully they'll give us little things like that to work with along the way.Best sitcom to come around in a long, long time. It's a shame that the ratings are so low.As far as the slap bet, Marshall had five, and has used two of them. The first was about 5 minutes after the bet, and the second was at Barney's play mocking Lily.
Second best sitcom on TV besides The Office. I took the bait and watched Big Bang Theory which made me appreciate HIMYM even more. Bang just overused the laugh track (or I hope) on the lamest of jokes. It seemed like writers on this show asked themselves "what would be the least creative / innovative way that we could make fun of nerds to appeal to the mainstream public?"
Yeah, I don't like The Office, so maybe it's by default.Still, I hope this isn't the final season. Something tells me it is, though.
Ted is easily the most annoying character on the show.
He is, but his character isn't as bad as it was in season 1.
I'm not willing to say that yet after only one episode.He is, but his character isn't as bad as it was in season 1.
It wasn't that bad the entire second season.I'm not willing to say that yet after only one episode.He is, but his character isn't as bad as it was in season 1.
I missed the beginning. What was the yellow umbrella at the end?
The opening of the show said to his kids, "You know the short version of how I met your mother. You know, the story about the yellow umbrella? Well, the longer version is..."MechEng said:
I actually found the show very funny...and very well written.But thats just me.Might be that I did watch them on 2 different nights.Plus the chick is hot
Nah. It wasn't raining the day Ted met Winnie's character.
he lives!

I agree with this. Her face seems sunken into the rest of her head. I was disappointed.[scooter] said:eagles2007 said:Her head has not aged well.
