Ted pulled on his red boots, Barney pulled off his suit, and Britney pulled out the cleavage. All this while Lily tried desperately to sell her art in order to preserve her wardrobe in the hopes that maybe not everything must go. Photos to come tomorrow. Continue reading…

So that’s what happened with the goat. Sort of. We did see the fallout from the BRo hook up last week. In fact, we picked up right where we left off. An odd episode with an emotional moment, a guest star, and a brand new mystery, The Goat had it all. Continue reading…

Wow. So Robin is a sensitive girl after all. Who knew? Certainly not Simon. After Robin played second fiddle for the majority of this season we get to see an episode dedicated to her and her pop-star past. And we’re one step closer to the “major life changing event”, at least for Barney. If you haven’t seen the episode, there be spoilers ahead. You’ve been warned. Continue reading…

If you listen to the entire 10 minute song on Tedmosbyisajerk.com there is some backwards dialog at the end. What does it say forwards?

Wendy the waitress is the mother, Wendy the Waitress is the mother, Wendy the Waitress is the mother. Just kidding.

Check it out:

Update: The woman singing this song is Charlene Amoia aka Wendy the Waitress. That makes it even more awesome. If you’re like me and find this song oddly enjoyable, you can download it here.

Well it finally happened. The Britney Spears episode. While I found her to be mediocre; a much needed return of Romantic Ted, not one but two appearances of Charlene Amoia, and the hilarious twosome of Barney and Robin—complete with an allusion to whether or not they’ve hooked up—this episode has it all. I think it is one of the best this season. Continue reading…

Welcome back everyone, How I Met Your Mother has returned. Continue reading…

Last night we saw a repeat of Bachelor Party from last season. I like this episode, although I prefer the B story (Robin’s inappropriate wedding shower present) to the A plot (Barney messing up Marshall’s bachelor party). That long description from Lily’s grandmother who thought Lily was about to open an antique sewing machine when in fact she was opening…something else was an inspired piece of writing.

Lastly, this episode was important because it showed us what made Lily finally come home. Barney flying out there with a ticket for her was a rare compassionate moment for him. He’s always shown a need for Marshall and Lily’s relationship to succeed (the ying to his bachelor yang it would seem) and it finally explained why Barney was so mean to Marshall during The Scorpion and the Toad.

Thoughts?

PS. Again, sorry for the limited posts. I’ve got a list of blog drafts a mile long and once I get situated you guys are in for some great content. Look forward to polls about returning guest stars, recaps from old episodes, legacy season vs. season talks, and maybe even a contest where we give away a DVD. Hang in there folks, it’s going to be a legendary new year.

This week’s recap was written by Have You Met Ted long-time fan Jason “The Mix”. Jason offered to take over this week since I’m in such a flux with the move. I’m super excited to share his thoughts with you. As Broda would say, the Force is strong with this one. Without further adieu I present Jason’s recap:

With this episode was the last new one we’ll see for a fair amount of time, however, if were we’re going to go out on any episode, I’m glad it was this one. It left us with a sense of mystery, and a cliffhanger of sorts with more than one person in Ted and Barney.

This was, as older Ted put it, the story of making decisions that we aren’t prepared to live with, “and the consequences that follow”. This episode in particular is one I found to be fairly iconically Ted, in that there are several episodes where the focus is upon Ted making a bad decision, or simply unwise, even though he knew before hand it was a bad decision to be making. In fact, that’s generally been the overlaying theme of the entire season so far. Old Ted at the beginning of the season puts it as going through what he needed to go through before he meets the mother. In the end, this episode is sort of a more hilarious stepbrother to “Nothing Good Happens After 2 AM”. Continue reading…
