Who's Your Favorite One-Episode Guest Star?

For my money, it would be John Cho as Jeff Coatsworth. His dry, deadpan line deliveries as he's seducing Marshall into working for Nicholson, Hewitt & West never fails to make me laugh.

Does anyone else watch this show like A LOT ?

i’ve rewatched this show so many times i’ve lost count, though i don’t always rewatch it all the way, sometimes i randomly jump around the episodes/seasons. I say sometimes but honestly i really mean- all the time. 9 times out of 10, when my sister or mom walks in, i have it playing in the background or im simply just watching it. It’s my favorite show to have in the background or to fall asleep to (and also my favorite show in general). There’s been several times where i’ll have a conversation and suddenly just go “that reminds me of this one episode of how i met your mother”. you guys know that episode where Ted gets Stella to watch Star Wars and after Stella reveals to Marshall that she didn’t actually like it, Marshall says “that is ted’s favorite movie, he watches it when he’s home sick with the flu, he watches it on rainy sunday afternoons, he watches it on christmas eve, he watches it in sick times and in health, in good times and in bad” well that’s exactly how i feel about how i met your mother 😭

Apple TV Canada - Box Set $29.99 CAD

Hi!

I’m starting my favourite tv shows and movies collection because I’m tired of paying for streaming and I noticed this.

If anyone is interested, I just got the full box set for $29.99 CAD in the Apple Tv app. A couple of weeks ago it was 3x that.

Enjoy.

Farhampton

I know I've seen several times that Cristin Milioti wasn't selected until the last episode of season 8 and even then very few people had met her prior to the release to maintain their secret.

My question is then, who is behind the umbrella in s8e01 (Farhampton)? Obviously not Cristin, I get that, I'm just genuinely curious if we know who the stand-in is because she wears the same outfit and is thus, presumably, the same size and build. Not that it's a terribly complex outfit that couldn't be recreated later to Cristin's specs.

Just some random extra? Crew member? Lily?

Theory

Secretely himym takes place in an alternate universe where everyone can project stories into other people's mind. I know its the series' format. But I'd like to think they can just play their stories like a movie in each others minds, cause theres no way you can get a story across in that much detail.

S7 E3 is the best representation of the parallel story dialogue in the show

The storyline abt Barney and shinjitsu and lily’s pregnancy boobs and the Ted Victoria story

Spinoff Idea

I smoked a sandwich earlier so bear with me, but I think if the actors were up for it, I would love to see a show with Ted and Tracy. Like they could shoot it now and the fact that they’re older would be fine, who cares. Let’s see what their life was like when they were together! I just looked it up and it was like 13 years that they were together. This almost feels intentional; perhaps the creators thought about the possibility of a spinoff also? I donno, they’re both great actors and seemed to have good chemistry, I say do it! Might also bring in the fans that weren’t happy with the ending. Just my two cents!

Any episodes with fun details? Like the "Countdown" episode

I was rewatching some HIMYM episodes with my brother, and we watched the countdown episode and we kept looking for all the numbers. Are there any other episodes that have really cool details like that?

Let's start a thread of our favorite HIMYM jokes/bits.

Mine, hands down, is when Ted in season 7 is trying to get over Robin again, but ends up on a date with a girl named Robyn....

"With a Y."

"Ooooh, YOBIN!"

"No....Robyn..."

😂

Anyone else who can't separate Barney from NPH's roles in the Harold and Kumar movies?

Honestly I could see them being the same character, but maybe that's too much of a reach.

would Mclarens have survived the pandemic?

It was a pretty busy bar for its time. just curious to see if you guys think it would’ve survived that period of time and what would’ve happened to the gang alongside it

Has anyone here seen Lovesick? It reminds me of HIMYM.

It’s a British series following Dylan looking back at past key relationships, with a window into his life and his friends lives at the same time. Dylan also feels quite a bit like Ted, with his friend Luke resembling Barney a lot. There’s also lots of other bits and pieces that remind me of HIMYM. The series and the humour is probably a bit more British and mature, its also a much shorter series (on purpose) but scratches the same itch.

Has anyone else seen it? Did you like it? Did it remind you of HIMYM?

Opinion

I just realised that all our lives, men only want to end up either like Marshall- the family man or Barney - the guy who nailed every hot chick the city had but the sad part is that Ted Mosby is what we end uo becoming. Just had this thought. Probably sharing something on reddit for the first time. Please let me know your thoughts?

Ted was really a great guy man. Never related to fictional character this much. A lot to learn from him
