INTERVIEW AND ADVANCE REVIEW: How I Met Your Mother 100th Episode: Carter Bays and Craig Thomas talk milestone

The 100th episode of How I Met Your Mother (airing tonight!) titled “Girls vs. Suits” is one of the best episodes of the show’s 5 year run. It packs a lot of punches, including a musical number I had to re-watch 5 times (and subsequently get stuck in my head all the time), and many amazing [...]

TV Golden Globe Nominations

The Oscars are more my type of Awards show (hey, we can all  have our guilty, non-TV pleasures, right?) but I enjoy the Golden Globes. The show is fun, and I like that they honor television and movies.
Take a look at the list of (most) Television nominees and my thoughts:

REVIEW: How I Met Your Mother: "The Playbook"

Last night’s How I Met Your Mother, entitled The Playbook, centered around Barney’s antics after his breakup with Robin. Any episode that centers around Barney Stinson, has me hooked from the beginning. I’ve said before that I think he is one of the greatest characters on television (if not the greatest), and this episode truly [...]

REVIEW: How I Met Your Mother: "Rough Patch"

I realize I have missed a few episode reviews of How I Met Your Mother, but I promise, I am back on board. This week’s episode “Rough Patch,” centered around Robin and Barney getting a little too comfortable in their relationship and going through, well you guessed it, a rough patch.

REVIEW: How I Met Your Mother: The Sexless Innkeeper

Last night’s How I Met Your Mother centered around Lily and Marshall’s double dating bad luck. They ask Robin and Barney to double date with them, and it is a disaster. Meanwhile, Ted works on picking up girls with his new “professor look,” or rather a tweed jacket.
This episode lacked in the plot department, but [...]

REVIEW: How I Met Your Mother: "Robin 101"

I must say, the 5th season of How I Met Your Mother has started out smashingly. This week’s episode, titled “Robin 101,” centered around Barney taking a class taught by Ted, all about Robin. Ted teaches Barney everything from different facial expressions to how to distract her when she’s mad (hockey, emperor penguins), and [...]

REVIEW: How I Met Your Mother: "Double Date"

The season premiere of How I Met Your Mother started off on such a strong note, I was hoping the 2nd episode could keep up the momentum. Like always, this show did not disappoint.

The episode centered around dating…Ted goes on a blind date that he had been on in 2002. In other words, the [...]

ADVANCE REVIEW: Season Premiere of How I Met Your Mother

I was thrilled when the premiere of How I Met Your Mother’s 5th season came in the mail. I think Barney Stinson (NPH, you are amazing!) is one of the best characters on television, but the entire cast is just incredible. One thing that makes this show unique is that I can’t think of a [...]
