Jennifer Aniston Oscars 2009

In a recent interview the How I met Your Mother cast was asked who they hoped the mom would turn out to be.

(more…)

Barney Stinson

The gang is curious because Barney has been acting strange lately, being evasive about where he´s going, buying flowers and telling someone on the phone ´I love you´. They decide to follow him and find out his big secret: Barney has a wife and a child nobody knew about!

>>>Javier Bardem to sweep Julia Roberts off her feet?

Fun, fun, fun. Barney setting up a kind of Truman Show for his mom, auditioning for a son (“I´m not afraid to recast!”) and writing lines for every dinner. The others were rather sidelined with only Marshall getting any funny lines in. I can imagine that in a while the other actors might get a bit miffed that Barney gets all the good story lines. Even Ted had very little to do, other than snog Barney´s ´wife´.

Robin’s been unemployed for so long that she’s facing deportation back to Canada. Barney can’t face a world without her and tries to help by making a video resume.

I loved it! Barney is incredibly funny, his resume is, in a word, >>>Twilight: Robert & Kristen hook up after all?

“>awesome. Here’s a link

The gang starts mocking each other’s silly resume parts: Marshall still has himself down as a dunking champion, even though he hasn’t been able to dunk for years, due to a, errr, ‘basketball’ injury. Ted still has his college radioshow and Lily her hotdog eating championship. Very, very funny (and was that Alyson Hannigan’s actual, pregnant belly?) but it also made me think: I was my university’s Trivial Pursuit Champion in 1997. Maybe it is time to remove that from my resume….

Funny quotes:

Barney: From all of us in Barney’s appartment: Get out!

Lily & Marshall

Loved it! Best ep of the season so far!!!
Lily and Marshall have a ritual where whenever they come back from a trip they bring a six pack of beer and the other one picks them up. This time, they’ve decided their relationship is ‘mature’ and they shouldn’t have those silly rituals any more. But then they change their minds and have to jump through a lot of hoops to get it done after all.

Marshall and Lily are an inspiration to us all! Yes, keep all your traditions, however silly or insignificant!

Barney & Ted

Ted and Robin are sharing a flat and end up fighting all the time. They try and fix it by having sex, which seems to work, at least at first. Meanwhile, Marshall is having trouble ‘reading a magazine’ at work and keeps showing up at Ted and Robin’s appartment to go to the toilet.

Ok episode, but not great. Barney was, as usual, incredibly funny:

“Can’t a brother just clean another brothers crib?”

And actually buying tv’s to smash. The whole ‘reading a magazine’ thing was a bit off, but I guess there are people who had an ‘aha’ Erlebnis.
I wonder when Barney and Robin will get together. Season finale? Might not be that funny after all, Barney in a relationship? Even though….

Is it me or is Lily already looking preggers? Or are those just what they seem, extremely unflattering baggy outfits?

Anyway, now we know how Ted and Robin end up sharing an appartment, guess it’s time to bring out the goat!

HIMYM Barney

Lily and Marshall decide to have a baby, but Lily gets cold feet and calls on Robin and Ted to help her decide.

I like the way they portrayed the way people decide to have kids: Lily and Marshall are deep in debt, live in a crappy apartment, and work all hours of the day. Yet looking at a baby’s sock decides them on having a child. Yep. I’ve seen that happen. Soooo, Robin moves in with Ted, ey?
Well, she’s still aunt Robin, so I guess that’s not gonna happen (I’m still rooting for Barney&Robin, when’s that gonna happen?!) And I’m very glad Lily and Marshall aren’t having a baby. Come on, people having babies are boring!

Also nice to see Kevin’s dad (The Wonderyears!) again, though he didn’t get to do much.

Funny quotes:

Lily: “Baby me, Marshall, I’m ready!”

Robin to Ted “Every time you hear the word ‘kid’ you get two little lactation stains on your shirt.” (ouch!)

Barney:
“The cheerleader effect is when a group of women seems hot, but only as a group. It’s like with cheerleaders. They seem hot, but take each one individually: sled dogs. And that, my friends, is the cheerleader effect, also known as the brides maids paradox, and, for a brief period in the nineties, the Spice girls syndrome. Scary Spice indeed.”

• HIMYM 4×8 Wooo!

This video is soo funny. I love Jason Segal, he can lawyer me any day….

It’s not often that I am actually waiting for a series to start again. The third season of 24, yes. The season premiere of Dynasty after they ALL got shot during the wedding in Moldavia: sure. And back when North an South was first on tv I literally couldn’t sleep the night before it was on again (I had it bad for Patrick Swayze)(and I have been mocked for it ever since. My best friend even managed to work it into his wedding service!)The new HIMYM-series was not the stuff of North and SOuth, I slept fine, thank you, but yeah, I was kinda curious to see how Barney woes Robin. They’d make such a great couple!

Also I think HIMYM is one of the funniest things on tv right now. I am so glad they just sit around and drink a lot and not just coffee!

That’s one of the things that always bummed me out about Friends: the endless coffee.

HIMYM is sharp, funny and to coin a phrase: awesome. It makes me want to call my friends and go out. So I guess it’s a bit of a surrogate for actually going out with my friends since I am 2000 km away from them. Still: great show!

Not a big Ted-and-Stella fan I must admit. And if she’s the kids’ mother wouldn’t her name ring a bell?
And they’d have a stepsister, who’d be excluded from this family-bonding thing. So no, I do not think Stella is the mom. I don’t like her much, I prefer her in Scrubs, maybe it’s the hair, but something’s off with hr face in this haircut. Anyway I liked the cupcake girl who went to Germany, can we have her back?

Watch the episode
