i know i'm one of the only people on ilx who watches *how i met your mother* on a regular basis, but did anyone else see the robin sparkles episode? where robin didn't want people to know that she had

oh man, yesterday that was a page dedicated to how big Lorenzo's penis was, and how he floated down a river as a baby and was adopted, and references to how the river & adoption was in Milan probably contributed to his excellent sense of style.. Too bad it's gone!

Great episode, the mozart music during the intertitles was a good touch I thought.

I wonder if they'll do something special for the 100th episode that's coming up. It struck me the other day that CBS rarely if ever does the extended hour long sitcom specials that NBC does.

It's supposed to be a musical, I think? I hope Jason Segel gets to do a dracula song.

last 5 minutes of tonight's episode were most excellent. also the convienence store man's widow crying.

shocked they didn't milk that ted "i love you" gag, that was great

The ILY gag almost got me, it really felt like one of Ted's dramatic/romantic declarations for a second.

brittney and sarah chalke just then. nice episode, i am a sucker for ted's concept dates (see also 'drumroll please')

is this the first time we've seen ted's kids this season?

love marshall's time-traveling adventures.

surprised they did it two weeks in a row. i loved the post-credits thing in both episodes

lilly's voice was an easy joke but done to perfection. also the chair cameraman a+

I also enjoyed seeing the kids again.

Also really like "the window" episode from last week. I feel a lot of people know someone like the Maggie character in their life.

loved lily's voice but was so annoyed that the joke was spoiled by the capsule description on my cable system.

that was the best episode of the season so far imo. wish they showed the kids more often, would smash ted's future daughter.

How I Smashed Your Daughter

I try to pull myself back from being too much a grouch about this show, how this season's not too great, too many generic sitcom plots, and so on. But now I suddenly realize Slate does it EVERY WEEK!

http://www.slate.com/blogs/blogs/browbeat/archive/tags/How+I+Met+Your+Mother+Shame+Index/default.aspx

Ugh, that gave me bad Television Without Pity flashbacks.

well that was worth it!

i missed it!

i had actual real life humans over and we were "talking" and stuff! i did see big bang theory thank god. best episode ever!

now you're just trolling

i did see big bang theory thank god

With Danica "Winnie Cooper" McKellar!

nice unicorns reference was just listening to that LOL 2002

yeah that would totally be wilco-fan teds fave 'underground' cd

Loved the throwaway joke with Ted imagining himself having a house in Westchester with three dogs named Frank, Lloyd, and Wright.

Danica McKellar has been on HIMYM twice, would be great to see her on TV more.

Isn't her day job being the hottest mathmetician in the history of numbers doe?

Rewatching the musical number, I have to say the song is really great and NPH sung the hell out of it. I would totally buy a soundtrack to this show.

He did a great job with it, but it just made me want a Dr. Horrible sequel instead of watching Ted rhapsodize about the Unicorns.

Great part from last night's: Lily calmly taking off her earings as Peet apologizes towards the end, preparing for the beatdown. Also nice to not see Robin misused or awkwardly shamed for an episode!

last night?

i thought it was a re-run and didnt watch :(

it should be up on the cbs site

that was fantastic. amanda peet doing the drinking game being the whole reason for the episode a+

yeah I enjoyed that episode! NPH directed it, hence the distinct lack of Barney this week. It felt very much like a Barney ep though - the over-the-top Jenkins stories, the "reacher vs settler" discussion, skeeball...

best episode this season

i don't understand how barney didn't know who jenkins was if he works at the same place?

he totally did! it's moseby with all the flashbacks and misinformation

Barney did know who Jenkins was. That's why he wanted to sleep with her.

it seemed like he had just found out

nah watch it again, barney knew for sure

best episode this season

loved this episode

i thought about starting a duck vs. rabbit poll

next level

duck vs. rabbit argument was a great great scene... wasn't super down with the rest of it tho

i got distracted during the actual scene where they explained the duck/rabbit thing, and spent the rest of the episode mildly confused trying to figure out what it all meant. even read a couple recaps of the episode that summarized it really badly and still don't totally get it.

ted showed that picture that looks like both a duck and a rabbit

and then they had an argument about whether the duck or the rabbit was good

Me too. Tbh I am losing interest in this show.

The callback to The Naked Man was fantastic.

max do you write for any recap sites?
