Watch How I Met Your Mother TV Show
Written by admin on June 28, 2008 – 6:40 pm -How I Met Your Mother TV Show is a comedy about Ted (Josh Radnor) and how he fell in love. Created by former Late Show with David Letterman writers Carter Bays and Craig Thomas, the 30-minute CBS sitcom How I Met Your Mother was, per its title, related entirely in flashback, from the vantage point of 2030. When Ted’s best friend, Marshall (Jason Segal, Freaks and Geeks), decides to propose to his long-time girlfriend, Lily (Alyson Hannigan, Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Ted realizes that time may be running out on finding the love of his life. His friend Barney (Neil Patrick Harris, Doogie Howser MD) is the anti-Marshall, a guy who thinks he knows everything about meeting women and isn’t afraid to tell you.
Ted first meets Robin (Cobie Smulders, Veritas the Quest), and he believes that she is the woman for him. Soon he realizes that he may not be right after all. Bob Saget (Full House) narrates the story with voiceovers as we follow along flashbacks from the future when he is telling his children the story of how he met their mother. How I Met Your Mother premiered on September 19, 2005.

How I Met Your Mother: Season 3 Review
Written by admin on June 28, 2008 – 7:40 am -For a show with a simple, one-plot premise, there are certainly many stories to be told. When How I Met Your Mother began, it was clever – but really, who believed they’d pull three (going on four) seasons out of some guy telling his kids a story about how he met their mother?
Over the course of this season, many dynamics and friendships within the group changed – some for the better, and some took a small step backwards. For instance, we know Ted and Robin are still friends in the future, we didn’t know how they’d get to that comfortable friends place after their breakup. We were able to see some progress in their relationship, and it felt authentic and very real – considering this is sitcom TV, after all.
Robin’s cornrow hairdo was highly distracting for the first couple episodes – we’re so glad she came to her senses and moved on. Marshall discovered a secret about Lily that threatened their happiness and their financial security, in a plotline that felt very forced and hit a low with stories about the money pit apartment they purchased.
One of the best assets of this show is the ability to blend special guest stars in with the regular cast. Highlights this season were two appearances by Britney Spears (one good, one meh) and a recurring role by Sarah Chalke. Heidi Klum also appeared, but oddly, as herself.
While Britney’s appearances were cute – especially her fawning over Ted, even while ‘dating’ Barney – it definitely had the feel of stunt casting. And even though the goal was probably more to help repair her image, it was at times funny, smart and great.
More notably, however, was the addition of Sarah Chalke to the show. From her first appearance as Ted’s doctor (and later, Ted’s girlfriend), Stella was a fantastic fit with the rest of the cast. Still an outsider and a little put off by Ted sharing all the intimate details of her life with his friends, she was a good match for Ted. From the moment she fell off a chair laughing at his jokes, we began to hope she was the mother. Is she? Perhaps. Either way, we hope she returns next season.
Barney Stinson (Neil Patrick Harris) is possibly the most unique, disgusting, and yet somehow loveable character on television. The horrible ways he’s broken women’s hearts were the central part of an episode (”The Final Four”), and yet? He’s legen – wait for it – dary. The single most remarkable event of this season for Barney, however, is that he may have actually met his match and found a woman worth growing up for. Hopefully he’ll remain the same awesome bro, no matter what his future holds.
Aside from the crappy Money Pit plot, Marshall had some excellent moments this year, too. Our favorite was the conclusion of last year’s Slap bet in the “Slapsgiving” episode. Definitely don’t get on the wrong side of a slap bet with this guy (and the slap song was worth repeated viewings, too).
In other music video news, this season saw the return of Canadian pop singer Robin Sparkles, and a viewing of her second music video, “Sandcastles in the Sand”. From the redundant title to the guest stars (James Van der Beek, Tiffany, and inexplicably Alan Thicke) the episode rocked – and made us roll with laughter.
Overall, the season was fun and clever, a good, consistent flow from the first two seasons – and we’re always surprised how far they can go with such a simple premise, how Ted met the mother of his children.
“How I Met Your Mother” Spills Bean Or Two
Written by admin on June 24, 2008 – 7:39 am -
I was surprised by a couple of notes from a “How I Met Your Mother” cast appearance at an Emmy event in New York this weekend. The actors and producers pulled a “Lost,” revealing some tantalizing tidbits without actually telling us anything, according to a Televisionista report. Most importantly, they said we’ve already seen the mother, a woman with an umbrella played by producer Pam Fryman. Does anyone remember what episode that was in? The circumstances?
They also said that the young actors who play Ted’s two kids, to whom he’s telling the story of the series, already know who the mother is. Apparently they taped some dialogue last year that revealed the secret. Wonder if that was when the show was on the bubble? With so much up in the air due to the writers strike, they might have recorded the bit as a hedge against a cancellation and the need to whip together a series finale on short notice.
And finally. Sarah Chalke will be back as Dr. Stella next season, but no one would say for how long, so it’s difficult to read the tea leaves when it comes to her chances for motherhood. The writers did admit that the Barney and Robin hookup was a late call, inspired by the chemistry between Neil Patrick Harris and Cobie Smulders above) during the laser-tag episode.

TV tonight: ‘I Love the New Millennium’
Written by admin on June 24, 2008 – 7:24 am -Nostalgia is rushing at us faster now. On Thursday’s finale, we’ll reminisce about 2007.
As usual, there are lots of quips (Michael Ian Black is especially good) and clips.
Tonight, people speak fondly of “Zoolander” and post-9/ll unity. They ponder “Who Let the Dogs Out?” (”eight years later and we still don’t know the answer”) and more.
Gilbert Gottfried eyes “Moulin Rouge” warily: “The director (said), ‘Can we do that again, but make it a lot more gay?’ ”
‘Bachelorette’ is down to 4 guys
TONIGHT’S MIGHT-SEE: “The Bachelorette,” 8-10 p.m., Channel 53 (ABC).
DeAnna Pappas visits the homes of the final four guys.
Then she trims to the three whom she’ll invited on overnight dates next week. We’re guessing they’ll say yes.
Other choices
• “Big Bang Theory,” 8 p.m., Channel 6 (CBS). Here’s the rerun of an exceptionally funny episode. Desperate to avoid hearing Penny’s awful singing voice, Sheldon lies. Soon, that lie grows to grand proportions.
• “Middleman,” 8 p.m., ABC Family. When last week’s fun opener began, Wendy Watson was a low-key artist and receptionist. Now all of that has changed considerably. Tonight, she descends into the underworld to stop the Earth from being barraged by fire.
• “How I Met Your Mother,” 8:30 p.m., Channel 6. The friends share memories linked to Marshall’s car, which is in the shop.
• “Nashville Star,” 9 p.m., Channel 10 (NBC). Last week was so-so, partly because songs were scrunched into an absurd, 70- second time limit. Tonight, the 10 surviving acts each tackle a pop song. I blog after each episode of “Star” and (on Wednesdays and Thursdays) “So You Think You Can Dance.
• “The Lost Pyramid,” 9 p.m., History Channel. Alongside the three Great Pyramids of Gaza, historians feel, there was once a fourth. Here’s an interesting, revisionist look at its remains and the emperor who built it, more than 4,000 years ago.
Sandcastles in the Sand review
Written by admin on June 18, 2008 – 5:29 pm -For me this episode was not outstanding, not so great and was just good. Definitely a notch up episode. Everything is working perfectly, then happens something, a very little thing which takes the show off kilter. It was what happened with last How I Met Your Mother. Episode was the funniest episode and there was some moment that should have been the great but was not. Watch this episode for free here.
James Van Der Beek, while not a native Canadian, can certainly fake and exaggerate the accent like a pro. Why Robin finds him so resistless so many years later; the fact was a little odd at first. But I found it one of the most realistic reactions on TV ever, when was explained. Lily’s friend Michelle was incredibly funny. Robin’s musical past comes forth when the whole group learns about someone named Simon. Ted tries to spend more time with Stella. Meanwhile, Barney is searching for more Robin Sparkles memorabilia.
Following are the quotes which I found the best from episode:
Robin: Hey, Simon!
Simon: Ohh, look at you! You got old.
Robin: Yeah. You look great! You got hotter, like that’s possible! So…
Barney: You’re the most awesome person I’ve ever known. Well, second most awesome.
Robin: Right, of course the first being you.
Barney: No, no. The first is this guy who lives in a place called the mirror. What up?
Marshall: So is he the guy who, how shall I say this like a gentleman…Robin, did he take your “maple leaf”?
Robin: No, it wasn’t like that.
I hope you’ve not missed this episode. Nay! I can’t. Well, all How I Met your mother episodes are available online.
Finally, Britney is baaaacccck
Written by admin on June 15, 2008 – 5:31 pm -She’s back!!
No! She’s not
Man!! Series can’t run without her
Chances are very less
All this was going on for Britney’s re-appearance on series
But now, all the cliffhangers are solved as Britney Spears is back on How I Met Your Mother. Oho!! Yeah, it is and I do want to jump. Well, I jumped happily when I first got this news and I think you’re also startling now. Are you????
So, this pop sensation was all set to return to CBS comedy hit ‘How I Met Your Mother’. Her cameo appearance was so liked by public and critics that she came for a second appearance. Britney appeared on ‘Everything Must Go’ aired on May 12th as the dizzy receptionist Abby. Well, I watched this special episode only and only because of Britney and she was definitely better than the first appearance and was looking more cute. She really do have a great comic timing and Britney, you are definitely a great Comedian. Ha Ha ha
It’s yet to be seen whether her appearance will profit the show in ratings or not when her first presence on series brought its highest ratings ever. Is a third to follow???? What says? When Craig Thomas, show’s co-creator says “She was better than the first time, and I think the fans will enjoy it because her return answers a larger mystery set up earlier in the series. So there’s a good plot reason why she’s there.”
Is there another good plot reason that can bring her for a third appearance…….. looking forward…..
How I met your Mother- Britney Spears may return to the show
Written by admin on June 15, 2008 – 5:29 pm -Have you watched the latest episode of How I met your Mother named Ten Session aired on 3-24-2008. If yes, then, go ahead and read what I have to share with you buddies-
This was the special episode on which the heart throb Britney Spears made her guest appearance. And, the episode earned the series’ 10.7 million viewers, hit its highest rankings ever, say thanks to Britney. This diva has really done an admirable job on the show.
The pop princesses played a receptionist named Abby, who’s working at Ted’s dermatologist office. In this episode, Ted Mosby pursues a lady named Stella, but it seems that her receptionist is more interested in him. Scrubs star Sarah Chalke, played Ted’s new love interest. The best scene of the episode was Ted’s two minute date scene ( click here to have that episode ) and most liked quote from the episode is:
Abby: Can we have sex, and then go shopping?
Barney: I like you.
Well, now the question is could Britney be back for another episode or not? Reports say that Spears will make at least one more appearance on the series. If we look at the ratings of the episode, then, it seems obvious, that they would bring her back. But, can’t say until some official announcement, so, let’s see whether Britney Spears will back or not.

Lily: [pause, thinks about it] One of each!
