So, Revertigo. It’s a phenomenon that occurs when a person (we’ll call her Robin) sees someone from her past (we’ll call him Simon) and starts acting how she did at the age she knew him. It is pretty ugly, but not half as ugly as James VanDerBeek’s hair.

"The Chain of Screaming" Review

How I Met Your Mother
“The Chain of Screaming”

Original Air Date: April 14, 2008

Rachel – Legendary Staff Writer

So we finally see where Marshall works. You know, the evil law firm he sold his soul to. It’s kind of a Wolfram & Hart place, if you know what I mean. But I get ahead of myself… Ted bought a car.

Now, I’ve lived in NYC and I know that a car is one of the more stupid possessions a resident could have in the city. The parking alone can eat up hundreds of dollars. But Ted got a raise and wanted to reward himself. After Barney calls “shotgun for eternity” (which is a great idea, by the way), Marshall shows up looking very out of sorts. Over a beer, he tells his story…

Jason Segel to Appear on Letterman

CBS has announced that Jason Segel will be appearing on Late Night with David Letterman!

Friday, April 18 Actress Amy Poehler; actor Jason Segel from the CBS comedy series "How I Met Your Mother"; musical guest Jordan Zevon.

Sounds like a funny hour to me!

TV Guide is Saying to Look for More Chalke

According to TVGuide's AskAusiello, Sarah Chalke may be seen on screen again this season.

"Chalke's Mother crush himself, Josh Radnor — here to shoot a guest appearance for next week's Ausiello Report vodcast — confirmed that we'd probably be seeing Stella for a "few more episodes" this season. He was quick to add, however, that he has no clue whether or not she's the mother. "I really don't know," he said, "nor do I ask."

The story is HERE.

What do you think? Do you think we just met their mother?

Neil Patrick Harris on "Stunt Casting"

Neil Patrick Harris gave some great quotes to a story that AOL TV is running.

"I'm in the minority that our show does not need stunt casting in order to succeed," Harris declared during a break from taping the Monday night CBS sitcom, which has grown a cult following since its 2005 debut.

"I worry that if they start `Will and Grace'-ing us too much, that the show will suffer. And we're all really proud of the content of the show. I mean, viewership is not our game. It's the network and the studio's game, you know. It's the promotion department's game," the actor, who plays womanizer Barney, told The Associated Press in an interview last week."

Of course all the papers/sites are going to make it out that Neil doesn't want Britney Spears back on the show, but no where in the article does he even mention her name.

"Forgetting Sarah Marshall" Premiere Photos

In case you haven't heard, the new Judd Apatow production "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" was written by and stars our very own Marshall - Jason Segel.

The movie's tagline is "The ultimate romantic disaster movie."

The Plot? Devastated Peter (Segel) takes a Hawaii vacation in order to deal with recent break-up with his TV star girlfriend, Sarah (Kristen Bell). Little does he know Sarah's traveling to the same resort as her ex ... and she's bringing along her new boyfriend.

The premiere was held the other night and most of Jason's HIMYM friends stopped in!

Cobie Smulders Appearing on Craig Ferguson

CBS just announced that Cobie Smulders will be on the show. The entire show listing is as follows:

Wednesday, April 16 Actor Jackie Chan; Actress Cobie Smulders from the CBS comedy series "How I Met Your Mother"; music by Bell X1

How I Met Your Father

Here's a great parody from Family Guy. The best part is that Josh Radnor and Neil Patrick Harris clearly don't take themselves too seriously!

Which HIMYM Character Are You?

BuddyTV has recently put up a How I Met Your Mother quiz, which tells you which character you are most like. Of course, KP & I got Lily & Marshall. I was slightly hoping I'd get Barney, though! Who are you? Take the quiz & let us know!

Happy Birthday....

Cobie Smulders!!

That's right, the star behind the one and only Robin Sparkles turns 24.

Wow, I had no idea she was so young!

HIMYM - Ten Best on TV!

According to SportingNews.com anyway!

"Is the setting of this show particularly original? No. How many groups of friends have we seen who live in New York, wrapped up in their lives, living in apartments way too big for their income in a sitcom? This concept will be around forever, but How I Met Your Mother takes it and flips it around, setting the narrative 25 years in the future with a man telling his kids the story of well, how he met their mother. The show is ingenious in its use time and perspective, warping around normal sitcom contrivances to create new and interesting stories. Oh, and for those who have seen Harold and Kumar, it should come as no surprise that Neil Patrick Harris steals this show along with Jason Segel as Marshal and the radiant Alyson Hannigan as Lily."

Ted's (not) Quite the Bachelor

Starpulse.com recently ran a story about the most undesirable bachelors on Television.

Our boy Ted Mosby made the list. Poor Ted.

"Following that lead is Ted Mosby (Josh Radnor) from How I Met Your Mother. Ted even went so far as to teach his teenage son that "No doesn't really mean No" on the latest episode "Ten Sessions." Ted is the kind of guy who says everything a woman wants to hear, so it all seems perfect at first. Only as she travels down the relationship road with him, she realizes that it's not her he's interested in but rather the act of getting married in general. He wants to be in a relationship so badly, it doesn't even matter who he's with, and he ends up projecting so many of his hopes and desires onto his girlfriend without ever stopping to consider who she is and what she might want out of the whole thing."

Barney's "Doogie" Tribute

Here is the video from this week's HIMYM episode, "The Bracket". After Barney makes a discovery about himself, he decides to blog it out, Doogie Howser style.

Recap & Review - "The Bracket"

How I Met Your Mother
“The Bracket”
Season 3, Episode 14

March 31, 2008

Rachel – Staff Writer

In honor of March Madness, we were graced with a Barney-centric episode involving brackets, scrapbooks, Barney’s Blog, and 64 scorned women. How Barney-riffic!

Something’s afoot in Barney’s world. After almost sealing the deal with different women in a hardware store, a pet store, and a museum, only to be slapped in the face by all three, Barney discovers that an ex-conquest is following him around, warning women of his player tendencies. Oh, how are we going to find out who it is?!? A college-hoops-type bracket, that’s how!
