    Probably better standard than a lot of last season.

    Was worried when it looked like it was going to it was going to go down the Robin and Ted route but they averted it nicely.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,423 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    God.. I hope it's better than last year!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Good opener. Good to have it back.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,908 ✭✭✭Daysha


    That was brilliant! Better than the vast majority of S5 already.

    Anyone else think regards the end:
    It's Robin and Barney's wedding? Hopefully I'm wrong but they were the only two absent from that sequence and you could definitely tell during the episode that they're not done with them yet.

    Thought the exact same thing alright.

    Thought the exact same thing alright.

    Also:
    The writers described the first episode of S6 as 'a gamechanger' so that could well be it. I hear a few other people think it could be Cindy's wedding but I doubt he'd go from ex-boyfriend to best man at her wedding just like that.

    That said though I wonder how Cindy's roommate (aka the Mother) ends up at it? Her being there doesn't make as much sense if it was the other two's wedding.

    I'm nearly convinced now though that we'll get a mother reveal by the end of the season. More than likely under that yellow umbrella with the really bad storm just starting :P

    agree with the mother reveal, do you think that will be the end of the show or will it end at the wedding? I think the final reveal will be it :( I can't live in a world without How I Met Your Mother!

    Loved Todays episoode
    - you dont have to worry Ted and I'll tell you why in 1 word " DIBS"
    - It would be like aliens landing... actually thats a bad example because that could happen


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,158 ✭✭✭beanyb


    Totally agree that it's Barney and Robin's wedding. That was definitely what we were supposed to take out of that scene. And if it was misdirection, I'll be kind of annoyed!

    Really liked this episode. Hopefully it'll keep up this standard for the season.

    I do believe that is the saddest thing I have ever read on boards.ie :(

    Someone watches a show they hate just coz Britney Spears is in it :eek:

    :-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,423 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Good opener.. but the only real LOL moment for me was Marshall's exit from the office with his workmates gunning him on to get Lily pregnant! :D

    Yes, it was after her meltdown, i wanted to see how she did...she was cute in the first ep.

    ***sigh***


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,909 ✭✭✭✭iguana


    I didn't really like this episode at all, it just seems to have lost something. It felt more 'acted' than natural, a bit off. I hope next week is better.:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,015 ✭✭✭Ludo


    Average episode at best. Hopefully it will improve again as I quite like it generally. Roll on the Big Bang though...

    I'm thinking its going to be Robins wedding, Maybe not Barneys too, It does leave some credance to it being there wedding but i'm gonna go out on a limb and say Barney stays single and Robin marries some other guy.

    Why would Ted be best man in that case though?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,423 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Why would Ted be best man in that case though?
    Could be the wedding from anyone to a new character, an old child-hood friend or even the silly possibility his parents could be getting remarried.

    Maybe Robin got to choose the best man as the guy she was marrying chose bridesmaids :cool: it is the 21st century


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,721 ✭✭✭Otacon


    I'm sorry, am I going to have to be the one to go there? Fine.
    Rachel Bilson lessing it up! Nice!

    Anyway, as for the rest of the episode, while it wasn't 'Season 1 or 2 good', it wasn't 'Season 5 bad' either. I just hope it continues to get better.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,269 ✭✭✭cabrwab


    Thought it was a funny episode.

    really building on the robin and ted friendship hmmmm.
    (so agreeing with earlier poster)
    Happy to have it back.
    Sure no season 1 or 2 but still enjoyable comedy none the less.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,158 ✭✭✭beanyb


    Fairly big spoiler about the wedding....
    Michael Ausiello had a blind item over the summer about a hit show having a shock wedding at the end of the next season. http://ausiellofiles.ew.com/2010/07/16/blind-item-wedding-shocker/ He confirmed this week that the show in question is HIMYM in his weekly Ask Ausiello spoiler column.

    "Question: I know you’ve probably been getting tons of requests for this, but any more scoop on the wedding blind item? Perhaps an exact network? —Maggie
    Ausiello: How about an exact show: It’s How I Met Your Mother. Did anyone spot the clues in Monday’s episode?!

    So, I reckon it has to be Barney and Robin.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,582 ✭✭✭✭Frisbee


    Solid enough episode without being great. Agree the best scene was Marshall leaving the office through the crowd of workers egging him on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,457 ✭✭✭evil_seed


    It's def Barney & Robin's wedding. The white dress on Robin in the bar is a big clue
