How Will the Writer’s Strike Affect How I Met Your Mother?

It looks like HIMYM will not suffer as much or as immediately as some of the other shows on TV. Last week the cast finished filming all the written scripts before the strike started. This positions the show to continually serve up new episodes, possibly well into December. A potential blessing in disguise–if this is the only new show, maybe it will gain a lot of new viewers!

The cast has been positive. Alyson Hannigan and Cobie Smulders both showed up outside the picket lines this week to pass out food and keep people company.

In related news, Neil Patrick Harris will appear on The Price is Right Wheel of Fortune next week, playing for charity this time rather than discovering his father (who is definitely NOT Drew Carrey Pat Sajak). I’m not sure of the exact day but The episode will air Monday Nov 12 so keep your eyes peeled to see if Neil can clean house the same way Barney did last season.

UPDATE: Apparently I can’t read properly, which Voltaire was kind enough to point out. Good call.

    Hold on – NPH can’t appear on The Price is Right. He’s going to appear on Wheel of Fortune playing with another contestant as a team playing for the regular contestant and for charity. Seeing that he’s already cleaned up on Price is Right (from the Show) and Jeopardy! (From last year), he should do pretty well at Wheel of Fortune.

    Oh, and btw the Episode with Neil will air on Monday, November 12.
