There She Is: HIMYM Season Finale

  There we have it. There she is. And yet, only a network like CBS can give us so many answers and leave us with so many more questions. All at once. I’m sitting here in my living room in shock. I don’t know whether or not to be excited or wary. I feel a lot of both.  This has been the fullest half hour in recent memory. When Marshall visits his mother for a week in Minnesota with Marvin, he spends the days assuring Lily his mother won’t make good on her idle threats to change their plans to...

  No! Writers! How I Met Your Mother writers! Stop messing with me! I knew after Barney insisted he knew Robin better than Ted something would go south. Talk about foreshadowing.But was Robin fair to assume Barney wouldn’t have come? Ted has simply known her longer—does that make him the love of her life? We know she marries…not Ted, if not Barney. Either way, I want the madness to end. On to the episode.  You saw my favorite parts during the live tweeting/Facebook updates. Barney’s budding relationship with Robin’s father blossomed into something of a Venus Flytrap in the laser...

Don’t Bogart all the Funions

  “I hate when people misuse that word.” “Me too, but you literally just got here.” The plot lies at the heart of this episode’s central nervous system: Lily, systematically nervous over her potentially-angsty Italian job opportunity. Can she uproot Marshall and Marvin when she herself is too scared to move more than ten subway stops from her Brooklyn birthplace?When the Captain calls, inviting her to move to Rome with him and be his art consultant there, she goes back and forth twice over the prospect. Not across the pond, either. She denies his offer twice for fluctuating reasons.Never mind Marshall now...

The One With "The Knot"

  With every good sitcom comes a good nuptial; then again, not sure I need to tell this crowd that, the same one studiously waiting for Robin and Barney’s wedding along with Ted and the ubiquitous Mother’s. But your blogger found a list of the top 19 sitcom weddings and—out of curiosity—combed through to see where our favorites ranked, and why. The results fall as follows: #5 Ross and Emily, F.R.I.E.N.D.S I feel badly that every wedding hitherto led to successful relationships. And then there’s Ross. “I, Ross, take thee…Rachel…” In all fairness, Rachel realized in the same episode she...

Written In The Stars

  I hope they didn’t air The Pre-Nup as a sign of anything before the season finale.  The Pre-Nup heralded the autumn of breakups before Robin and Barney’s imminent engagement, when she was still dating Nick, and Barney had another squeeze on his arm. Prior to their marriage, Quinn suffers through one of Barney’s pre-nup drafts--an overall misogynistic idea of what marriage should be--with the help of a lawyer. When she takes time to think it over, she confides in Robin and Lilly, both of whom were shocked by the story…just in time for Marshall, Ted and Nick to take...
