How i met your mother has got to be one of my favourite TV shows of all time. It is way, WAY better than friends, in my opinion. It has some really incredible stories and each episode is able to evoke some kind of emotion. I have cried many a time at an episode because of the touching way the actors and actresses seem to be able to weave really poignant narratives into each episode. Also the music used in the episodes just add to the soul-stirring nature of the show. The cast (Cobie Smoulders, Josh Radnor, Jason Segel, Alyson Hannigan and Neil Patrick Harris) are one of a kind and I can’t imagine them being played by anyone else. Also one of the best things about the show is that the cast got their real life partners to play characters in the show with Neil’s real life husband David Burtka playing Lily’s high school (ex) boyfriend Scooter, Alyson Hannigan’s real life husband Alexis Denisof playing Sandy and Cobie Smoulders real life husband Tara Killam playing Gary Blauman. Also the guest stars are incredible good as well with Britney Spears maing an appear as well as Joe Lo Truglio (better known as Charles Boyle from Brooklyn Nine-Nine), star of Magic Mike Joe Managaniello as Brad Morris, one of Marshall’s Bachelor friends, John Lithgow as Barney’s real actual Dad, Bryan Callen (better known as Coach Mellor from The Goldbergs) as Bilson, Ted’s architect boss and Bryan Cranston (star of Breaking Bad) as Hammond Druthers, another of Ted’s architect bosses just to name a few (I could go on). This show has a special place in my heart and I watch reruns of it all the time on Netflix because it is just such a wonderful show. 5 stars out of 5. Give it a watch if you haven’t, you won’t regret it.
