How I Met Your Mother

A father tells his teenagers the story of how he met their mother. However, Ted is not known for brevity, and this saga covers his entire love life from college to marriage. The sitcom "How I Met Your Mother" shows us a decade in the lives of five friends. Ted is an eternal romantic in search of The One, Barney tries to bed all the women in the world, Marshall is Ted's roommate, who has been in a relationship with Lily since college, and the fifth member of the gang is Robin, Ted's failed romance that turned into friendship.

The series is very similar to the cult "Friends" in almost all aspects, so much so that it could technically be characterized as plagiarism. But they are essentially very different. "How I Met Your Mother" has a different atmosphere, a different sense of humor, and more lifelike characters that are easier to identify with. Some moments are pure pathos, some quite philosophical, and many brought tears to my eyes from laughter. The first few seasons are a masterpiece of a sitcom, while later the series has its ups and downs, but at no point has it fallen so low that I even think about giving up. Only the grand finale in the last two episodes disappointed me a bit, because here the series completely changed its tone and went into waters that have nothing to do with the previous nine seasons, but they redeemed with a couple of nice plot twists.

All in all, for those who haven't seen it, I highly recommend it. I enjoyed it more than "Friends".

8,5/10.

I don't know if I have enough to say to fill up ten lines. I basically wanted to say that I think this is a funny show, and I hope the network keeps it. I especially like the twists and sense of mystery.

I've liked Alyson Hannigan for quite a while, and I think she's doing a great job in the first adult role I've seen her in (I can't believe she's already 31). I also think Doogie, I mean Neil Patrick Harris, plays his character really well. If you haven't seen him in "Harold & Kumar Go To White Castle", you should. Josh Radnor also does a very good job in his first leading role.

I agree that everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion, but I think this show has a lot of elements that make a good series: good plot, good writing, good acting, and attractive cast). I think previous series like "Friends" have raised the bar very high for new sitcoms, but I hope that even if a series isn't destined to become the next "Friends," it can still be recognized as a good and worthwhile sitcom.

How I Met Your Mother is one of those comedies that you can watch anytime it's on tv or even binge watch it and it will always be funny. The standout of this show is the hilarious Neil Patrick Harris as Barney. Not saying the rest of the cast isn't funny, because they all are, it a weak link on the show but Patrick Harris will go down as one of the all-time great sitcom characters. This has everything you want in a good sitcom, every episode will make you laugh out loud. Just be warned though, the ending is awful. Google worst tv show endings ever and i guarantee you How I Met Your Mother is on it. But being a sitcom it doesn't really take away from the show overall. It's still worth watching if you want a laugh.

I've enjoyed the first few episodes of this post "Friends" comedy. It really captures some of the humorous albeit awkward situations that late twenty-somethings are finding themselves in these days.

Alyson Hannigan once again presents her hilarious, quirky sense of style and humor. Along with her boyfriend, Marshall, they are an excellent representation of the couple who are trying to figure out an identity in the "not still partying like college kids, but trying not to be all grown up" stage of life.

The lead character, Ted, provides great entertainment. Audiences will be drawn in by his sensitivity and likability. He's not desperate to get married, but merely ready to find the One, tired of game playing.

Overall, I think this is a half-hour well spent. The humor is edgy, unpredictable, and you will find yourself reminiscing about those first few years after you graduated from college and struggled to find yourself out in the "Real World."

Hands down the best show I've ever watched. The gang are simply amazing. You can't help but love each single character. The plot has been flawless even though I'd have loved a better ending but I believe it's the most sensible one since they had to shoot it after season 2 so that the kids don't look older 7 years later. The writers have done such a great job and The fact that they've covered every single detail in the show makes it terrific.
