I haven’t seen that episode in ages!

I think a HIMYM marathon from start to end is in order very soon.

So far, three people have directed episodes of HIMYM: Pamela Fryman, Rob Greenberg and NPH. Though Fryman has directed almost all of the episodes.

I love this show. I’ve been a fan since season one because it got me through a really awful breakup. Now I push it onto my friends like a street corner crack dealer. They always like that taste and come on back.

I still think that season one’s “Drumroll” is among the most romantic half hours of television ever filmed–and I love that Pam has directed every episode.

Great to know that there are more people out there with a love for this show–it’s been on the bubble so often that I started to feel like I was in a great minority.

There’s always something new to appreciate! I rewatched a Season 3 episode last week and noticed a framed newspaper clipping in the background of one of the Marshall & Lily future scenes that said “NYC Lawyer Captures Nessie”. I don’t believe in Nessie, but I do believe that Marshall could capture it!

Terrific piece, Simon! Makes me hanker to go back and revisit a LOT of HIMYM episodes again!

My favourite is O’Lunney’s, just off Times Square. It’s one street over from Virgil’s and it’s an amazing spot for a night on the beer.

Yeah, i think it’s a bit TOO conspicuous that Old ted has given so little information about them and that we never see them in any of the Future scenes.

Nice read. And you may be on the money about Barney and Robin; an interview I read this month with Cobie says she thinks there is unfinished business there.
