How I Met Your Mother – Disaster Averted (S07E09)
CBS
I like Barney and Nora. I really don’t like Robin and Kevin. And yet despite all that, I enjoyed this episode. The perfect combination of humour and heart. The staple of HIMYM. Oh and the double-meaning of Disaster Averted.…

The Last Slap Is Tonight: Slap Bet Countdown (HIMYM)
CBS
It’s time. The Slap Bet Countdown went live 4 days ago, which can only mean one thing. The last slap.…

How I Met Your Mother – The Slutty Pumpkin Returns (S07E08)
CBS
The long-awaited return of the Slutty Pumpkin, now known as Naomi (Katie Holmes), was tonight and surprisingly, it felt like the b-story of the night. What could top a Slutty Pumpkin? Barney being Canadian.…

How I Met Your Mother – Noretta (S07E07)
CBS
It was a jam-packed week on How I Met Your Mother this week with Barney’s brother James (Wayne Brady), Nora (Nazanin Boniadi) playing a big role, and Kal Penn sticking around as Kevin for another week (regrettably.) Oh and every one of the gang’s parents show up in creepy cameos.…
How I Met Your Mother – Mystery vs. History (S07E06)
CBS
Although I disagree with the conclusion, I thought tonight’s comparison between 2005 and 2011 was pretty much dead on. Debates on factual issues are now easily resolved with one Google Search. And, to me that leads to more accurate knowledge. And as the show depicts, the debates are on things that have no right or wrong answer; like the question of mystery vs history or whether to learn the sex of your baby. Oh and Barney was still wearing the Ducky Tie.

Barney’s Ewok Line Slide Deck (HIMYM)
CBS
Another episode, another great set of screenshots. This week we saw a field trip and Barney put together a presentation on Ewoks. Here’s the slide that presented us with the Ewok Line which states that anyone born before May 25, 1973 would not appreciate Ewoks due to their age bias. Therefore, Nora was old. But, Barney quickly skipped through over 20 additional slides. And here they are……
How I Met Your Mother – Field Trip (S07E05)
CBS
Even though this week’s HIMYM felt like filler material, the continuity was still there. Barney was still wearing the Ducky Tie and Marshall was a newbie at his job with Garrison Cootes (Martin Short.) The biggest takeaways from this episode had to be Barney’s Ewok Line and being “Pollstered.”…

Ted, Lily, & Marshall’s “Trio” Halloween Costumes (HIMYM)
CBS
On this week’s episode of How I Met Your Mother, we were treated to another gaggle of screenshots showcasing the hilarity of Ted being in a trio with Lily & Marshall. Along with Salt & Pepper and cumin were many other memorable costumes, presumably from Halloween. But, sadly, no Batman, Robin, and Alfred.…

How I Met Your Mother – The Stinson Missile Crisis (S07E04)
CBS
Fresh off a stint at the White House, Kal Penn popped up on How I Met Your Mother as Robin’s court-mandated therapist. Also, is this the first episode with no voice over by Future Ted (aka Bob Saget)?…

How I Met Your Mother – Ducky Tie (S07E03)
CBS
There are people out there who often claim that How I Met Your Mother isn’t that great and the show is past its prime. To those people I suggest watching this episode. The Ducky Tie was HIMYM working on all levels. All the characters were utilized well, the story had both heart and Barney doing something incredible (using both meanings of that word: hard-to-believe and awesome.)…
The Words on Marshall’s T-Shirt In The Casino (HIMYM)
CBS
Again, another opening episode (or two) of How I Met Your Mother and another hint in the glimpse of the future. After making another sweeping declaration, we see Marshall and Barney at a casino, surrounded by Chinese business men. Apparently, Marshall had an interesting night, since he seems to have won some money. But, more interesting is what it says on his T-shirt (UPDATE: See Barney’s Ducky Tie.) Check it out after the jump.…

How I Met Your Mother – The Naked Truth (S07E02)
CBS
The second of the night and it really should have been called “The Sweeping Declaration” as those were the funniest moments of the episode, though there was also the introduction of Edward 40-Hands and Garrison Cootes (aka Martin Short.) But, the star of the episode had to be Beercules. Oh and of course the return……

How I Met Your Mother – The Best Man (S07E01)
CBS
Can you believe this is the 7th season of HIMYM? From a show that almost wasn’t renewed for a third, it’s an impressive feat. Back-to-back episodes (review of second episode is here) brought about signature hints at future episodes, huge laughs, and the question, what is the ducky tie?…
