Why the hEll are theRe no votes for "SpecIal Guest Star (BritNey "Fantastic" Spears)?" Am I tO believe that eX star Britney's two appearances are less of a negative impact as Wayne Brady's Jive?(or perhaps have made the show beTter)? IS the voting proceSs a biT slow for the BrItNey votes to appear on the line graphK aS of now?

Why the hell are there no votes for "Special Guest Star (Britney Spears)?" Am I to believe that Britney's two appearances are less of a negative impact as Wayne Brady's (or perhaps have made the show better)? Is the voting process a bit slow for the Britney votes to appear on the line graph as of now?

Where, exactly, is the humor in this show?

The homophobia that I see on this page sickens me. NPH is a wonderful actor doing a good job in a mediocre show. WTF does his personal life have to do with it? If you don't like the fact that he's proud of who he is and refuses to hide it from the intolerant bigots of this world any longer, then turn the channel and watch something else.... I'm sure the 700 Club is on the air somewhere on the dial. Stop belly-aching about the fact that you don't like how some actor in Hollywood is living his private life.

HIMYM is, like I said, a mediocre comedy but it is enjoyable and has a few great actors on it. NPH, Alyson Hannigan and Jason Segel are all very talented actors (not that the others aren't talented, but these thress stand out). There have been some really well-written eps during the course of this series as well as some bottom-of-the-barrel dregs. It's a pleasant half-hour of television, much better than some other ways I can think to spend my time.

What? No Britney Spears Made the Show Jump Option available here?


But 45 people think Wayne Brady, who made a guest appearance on the show, did!


Please!

NPH and AH are the cores of the show not that annoying Ted guy. In fact, without NPH and AH the show would not have made it this far.

The show is getting popular but the writers need to keep up. I feel they are getting close to jumping and how long can they delay actually id Ted's kids momma!!!

When they dump How Ted's Found His Kid's Momma, CBS should give NPH his own Barney Came Out of the Closet show.

I think this show is kind of cute! I don't think it's jumped the shark at all yet!!
and I thought Britney did a good job in both her guest starring roles on this show.

What's with all the homophobia? Yes, the bloke playing Barney is gay in real life, but he's an ACTOR! Any gay actor could play a straight guy.

And I don't think the whole thing with Barney and Robin came out of the blue. It's been hinted at for the past couple of years that Barney genuinely likes her and considered her to be more than just another possible conquest. If it had been any other woman but Robin, Barney would not have broken the "Bro Code."

As for Britney, she's a case of "less is more." I liked her a lot when she just had a couple of walk-on scenes, but when she graduated to a full part in an episode, it seemed like too much. Brit, I know that you are trying to salvage your image, but baby steps, kiddo, baby steps.

Was a pretty funny and original show until Britney had to show up! The single most overrated human being on the face of the earth who is a has-been and who can't act her way out of a box of birth control pills! And trying to convince the world she's sexy again, please!! "Hey, look at me, yall!! I'm sexy again, yall!!" GIMME LESS!!!

Robin and Barney...shark....ahhhh!

I thought that Neil Patrick Harris recently "came out of the closet" and admitted to being gay?? How is it that he plays such a "horn-dog" on the show and the producers don't see how ridiculous it looks??

"Here's a line that generated huge laughs from the laugh track: "Why don't we have sex, THEN go shopping?" "I LIKE you." "

To be fair, that was an unusually stupid line for the show. I absolutely hated the bits with Britney. I just found it cringe inducing. The show overall is good though.

I am (or was) a loyal fan of HIMYM until the episode Sandcastles in The Sand. The ending (Barney and Robin kissing) was random and stupid. I mean, they just throw us, in the last few seconds of the episode, Barney and Robin making out. And then they sleep together?? Gross. I mean, no one EVER expected that. Sorry let me rephrase that: no one WANTED that. The show was fine until that episode. That one and "The Goat".

Day One. This show is so unfunny and so filthy it's amazing. Here's a line that generated huge laughs from the laugh track: "Why don't we have sex, THEN go shopping?" "I LIKE you."

Hahahaha. Wow, how do they keep coming up with such cleverness. You must have an IQ of 90 or less to like this garbage.
