I love their use of flashbacks and twists, and all the actors are great though I don't understand why the guy who plays Ted hasn't done more work, because he's really fantastic I think. Reminds me of John Cusack.

Yeah I think hes done great in the show so far especially as the lead but in all honestly I cant really picture him in anything else.

Yeah I guess so. I mean I could see him in romantic comedies and stuff, but I guess How I Met Your Mother does that better than pretty much any hour and a half formulaic movie could.

I'm always working during the good stuff. I've ended up watching weird shit cartoons in the early AM when I get home, like Wayside and other equally shruggable toons.
Been keeping track of Family Guy, American Dad, Heroes, and the Office online.
Might give The Cleveland Show a few more tries before calling quits. The pilot was terrible. :/

All this hate for Big Bang Theory. I mean sure it isn't the greatest thing out there but it's still pretty funny and does have a fairly unique character in Sheldon. Although I guess he's just the extreme version of the quirky "say-what-you-think" character. And with the twist that instead of being incredibly stupid with moments of clarity he's incredibly smart with moments of clarity. What's not to like? I guess it just hits too close to home...

That said I hope there aren't too many more seasons because comedy tends to get bogged down once there's too many of them. (Just look at The Office. That show needs to end, though preferably not by cancellation.)

When I saw it they were playing Age of Conan or something and the girl got into it and it was just jokes about OH HAHA PEOPLE WHO PLAY VIDEO GAMES STAY UP TOO LATE DOING IT, ONLY THIS TIME IT'S A GIRL DOING IT, WAKKA WAKKA. this was the entire episode.

yeah it's pretty bad and painful most times, especially when they make a huge deal out of something that was circulated 5 years ago or something.

no-way is it worse than two and a half men though. it'd be less horrible to watch charlie sheen actually stomp on the faces of women for half an hour i think

Hence the 'almost'. They're at least EQUALLY bad, in the sense I can't watch either.

I really don't get Two and a Half Men though, there is a laugh track after EVERY SINGLE LINE even when they aren't jokes. I can live with laugh tracks but this show is unwatchable for me because of it. Even if the jokes in it weren't embarrassingly bad I would still not be able to listen to that much laugh track in one show.

Every joke consists of nerds spouting nerdy facts and then laughing at how nerdy they are. It's boring.

10 -
9 -
8 -
7 -
6 -
5 -
4 -
3 -
2 -
1 -
0 - How I Met Your Mother

How I Met Your Mother is revolutionary, so don't badmouth it. It's witty, satirical humor crawls up and down my funny bone for thirty minutes every tuesday night.
