Fall 2007 Monday TV: How I Met Your Mother
Hilarious, and Neil Patrick Harris is full of awesomeness as womanizer extraordinaire, Barney.
I started watching this past summer in reruns. Like most comedies, it wasn’t necessary to know all the backstory to enjoy it. I’ve laughed out loud multiple times during each episode. Harris shines, but the rest of the ensemble cast does good work, especially Jason Segal, a member of the Judd Apatow crew. Highly recommended, this has a season pass on my Tivo.
