How I Met Your Mother


It was only a matter of time before I blogged about this show. For those who know me off the web they will tell you that this is my all time favorite show. At least of the sit-com variety.

I'm sure most of you know at least the general premise of this show, as the title pretty much sums it up. It's about the main character, Ted, explaining to his kids in the future how he met their mom. So the whole show is essentially flash backs tied together of Ted and the gang's misc. adventures. It goes through all of Ted's major relationships, as well as problems and such of the other characters as well. A common complaint I hear about this show is the fact that "When are they going to show the mother!?" People are seeming to get frustrated with the mysterious figure. I don't know why though as that's the whole point of the show and as long as the episodes are well crafted and funny (which they are) the mother could come whenever. Of course the show is slowly revealing facts about her throughout the seasons so they tug you along with that.

Why do I love this show so much you may ask? Well, like I mentioned above. This show is one of the most well crafted television shows out there. The episodes are so interconnected that they refer even to future episodes in the past. Constant references to the past are being made and it really feels like you have a connection to the characters. The jokes are also great and come in a variety. You have the dirty sex jokes made by the sleaze ball Barney and then intelligent and witty jokes form the other cast. I find myself constantly laughing.

So if you don't already watch this show you really need to start!

yknow ive never given this show a chance. I absolutely love the big bang theory, though. And i know theyve gotten similar praise. Next time cbs airs it i'll give it a whirl.

I still remember how I stumbled upon this show accidentally. Didn't know a thing about it, really. But I was surfing through the channels and suddenly there was Allyson Hannigan on screen. Haven't seen her since Buffy and Angel, so I decided to watch what the show was about. Haven't missed an episode yet.

mious said...

I watch it all the time :) I love it

Icepax_Nmir said...

I watched by coincidence once, because it played after the big bang theory, and it wasn't my cup of tea... A shame, because I know plenty of people who enjoyed this show...

What little of this show I watched, I liked. Too bad I usually lose interest in sitcoms fast. Cartoons do that to me.
