this show has potential to be a big hit. not all shows are immedietly successful, for example seinfeld wasnt that popular untill its 4th season, thats when it became a must see. If this show advertises better and recovers from the awful season three and make it more like season two, it will survive and may become a hit.
Just like Amanda Bearse on MARRIED...WITH CHILDREN and other actors I can't remember, just the fact that NPH could play a character so different from his real life shows that they were all better actors than we would give them credit for. The play's the thing.
The only problem I could see with the show is the fact that Ted's keeping his kids hanging until he actually tells them how he met their mother. If there's a connection between all that happened the last three seasons and that event, that'd be understandable. But I guess the makers want to make enough episodes for syndication.

I agree the acting is great. Best bit ever:when Ted did that "4 minutes date" with that doctor..MAN forgot her name.
By the way I didn't understand what you meant by "all those huge egos competing with each other"
this was never the format of Friends..anyways

Better than Friends, my friend -- at least on here you don't have all those huge egos competing with each other. The writing may not be quite as great as the writing on Friends, but the performances are much better!
i thought brit did a very good job..give her a break she was an addict for God's sake.
personally I love the show and it reminds me of F.R.I.E.N.D.S :D

I think it's actually a statement to how strong of a regular cast and writing crew that they have on HIMYM that they can bounce back from some less than great guest spots (hint hint, Britney...). I think the rest of the cast handled themselves really well amidst stinky cheese.
HIMYM may never qualify as best of the best, but it is definitely well-written and a good, solid sitcom. There's a lot worse out there. And, yes, that IS a compliment.

If NPH wasn't out in real life, absolutely nobody would be saying he's an unconvincing womanizer. He's a fantastic actor with crazy good timing. He brings depth to a character who might otherwise have ended up as one-note and very unfunny.
The Britney stunt cast guest spots were bad, but if they saved the show in terms of ratings, I'm fine with 'em. Just don't bring her back. This show hasn't jumped yet, and is probably the third- or fourth-best sitcom on TV right now (after 30 Rock, The Office, and maybe Conchords)

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?

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.
