How I Met Your Mother


Friend who followed me on Facebook would know that I'm currently nuts over a TV series called "How I Met Your Mother" (HIMYM). I have all the 5 seasons and I'm currently waiting for the 6th season to begin.
This is the Synopsis according to Wikipedia:


How I Met Your Mother is an American situation comedy that premiered on CBS on September 19, 2005. The show was created by Craig Thomas and Carter Bays.

As a framing device, the main character, Ted Mosby (Josh Radnor),[1] with narration by Bob Saget, in the year 2030 recounts to his son and daughter the events that led to his meeting their mother, which explains the title and allows for a narration in the past tense. How I Met Your Mother's other main characters are Marshall Eriksen (Jason Segel), Robin Scherbatsky (Cobie Smulders), Barney Stinson (Neil Patrick Harris), and Lily Aldrin (Alyson Hannigan).[1]

***********************

In my opinion, this show trumps Friends as the ultimate buddy sitcom. This series has a lot of references to the future and the past. After watching the 1st and 2nd season, you can already feel that the writers have wrote the script for this series to last a couple of season. Some references in the 1st season will be shown in the 3rd season while some future episodes will refer to an earlier situation faced.

Yes, it is a comedy that you should follow from the 1st season.

I love the main character, Ted Mosby as he feels like a relatable person who is looking for his true love. He is a man who is jsut tired of the dating scene and hopes to find "the one" as soon as possible. He mentions that he is a lousy boyfirend but is a damn good husband material, LOL!.

The chemistry among this group of friends is also amazing and they always make references to their own inside jokes. Neil Patrick Harris is wonderful as the wing man, Barney Stinson. He even has a spin off book, which is called "The Bro Code" to which he makes references to throught the series. Another book is also on the way, entitled "The Playbook" which Barney refers to in the series to pick up women.

I highly recommend this series if you are looking for some really good fun with a bunch of friends.

I'm looking forward to September, when they start airing the 6th season =)
