It's the year 2030 and Ted Mosby is sitting his kids down to tell them the story of How he Met their mother (hence the title). The story starts 25 years ago, where Ted is a bachelor in New York City living with his best friends Marshall(Jason Segel from Knocked Up) and Lily(Alyson Hannigan from American Pie). Then there's his womanizer friend, Barney(Neil Patrick Harris, Doogie Howser M.D.), who is always ready to be Ted's wingman as they go out on the town looking for a girl for Ted. This usually leads them to the pub which is located underneath Ted's apartment. Ted is picky and has some bad luck with women. Every week Ted goes through another story in his life, which will all lead to how he met his future wife.
How I Met Your Mother is another one of my favorite shows on TV. It is great from front to back. The acting, the writing, the directing, the concept - it's all good. At times it's funny and at other times it's uproarious. Currently it is in its 3rd season, but I would recommend you watch this starting from the first episode, first season. Trust me, you will enjoy it a lot more if you know how it all started. After watching a couple episodes, I'm sure you'll go out and do it anyway.
Who is "the mother"? When will she be revealed? What will Barney do next? You've gotta tune in to find out!

here's a show that benefits from sticking to a timeline of events with a unique appeal because it's a sitcom that's just as conscious of telling a story, as it is of making people laugh. i'm big on minute details that have impactful payoffs further down the road, and this show is all about that. it's brilliant, what else can i say.
this is my favorite show to watch when i am taking a break from homework - it never fails to make me laugh and it's adorable to boot! i love barney. five starsssssss.
this show is freaking hilarious
In my opinion, this show is ..wait for it.. AMAZING. Did you think I would say "legendary"?! I cannot even imagine ever being as awesome as Barney. Imagine, you as a tv character are given the same name as that of a giant purple dinosaur with an even more irritating theme song - you'd think that you weren't even given a chance. Alas Barney does what he can: suits up and exudes awesomeness. I love this show. Comedic perfectness. Have I said too much?
