The Platinum Rule: Wait for it…
Sorry guys, I just moved to NYC and started a new job this week so I’m all out of whack for HIMYM. I don’t have time for a proper recap of last night’s episode yet. We can discuss it here and hopefully you won’t have to wait too much longer for a full wrap-up.
A couple things that stood out as good:
- I loved all the crazy time shifting. It’s nice when an episode covers just 30 minutes of the characters time as well as ours and is filled in with flashbacks.
- Lily’s hair was crazy. I like that they play around with the characters like that. There’s so much coverage about Hannigan’s hairstyles each season, then they throw it in as a gag
- Barney was in near-overacting stage. In a good way.
- That door-slam-slide was awesome. I boo-booped Tivo back over and over to watch it again
- Did anyone notice that dramatic turn as Barney and Robin suddenly were very close?
- Why does Robin only find these wussy guys?
- It was good to see more of Wendy the Waitress
Worth noting: At the end of the episode future-Ted tells his kids (and us in narration) that this is “the end of [his doctor] Stella’s story, at least for now.” Foreshadowing?
Sorry for the short post. Hopefully I’ll be back to speed next week.

Awesome fall finale episode! Next year if the strike still go on we won’t have more episodes
I really liked this episode. All the flasbacks en 2007-2006-2005 were awesome. Besides, was a very balanced episode between all the characters.
My favorite thing was ‘Ted hair’, it’s seems that is gonna be a running joke along the season, we have seen it in 3.03 and now here. Everybody laughing at him was very awesome.
I thought ‘The Platinum Rule’ wouldn’t be that awesome, but i was wrong. And now that i realized, it have had happened to me! In school more than everything. You met this new schoolmate, you hang out with that person, then you realizes like…i don’t like this person, then they wanna keep spending time with you and then you STOP it hehe.
That ‘AT LEAST FOR NOW’ was a totally open door for the mother. Besides, STELLA? I think Future Ted might be changing the real name so the kids don’t realize that ‘STELLA’ is their mother.
ps. Good luck with the job and we will be waiting for the full recap!
