And Another Three Week Break....

So as most of you saw this past Monday on CBS at 8:00 p.m., there was no new episode for this week.  As a fan of the show, I feel the writers are doing the regular viewers a disservice by broadcasting the episodes in matter in which they do.  They end up losing their fan base and this can only hurt their ratings because of a decrease in viewership.  I feel it would be better to get rid of these large week gaps in between the last episodes and just end the season.  I did some research and I found out on IMDB that there are five episodes left.  So instead of adding breaks in between every other episode for the last episodes left, just give the fans what they want and play them in the next five consecutive weeks.  That said I just wanted to say (for those that are unaware) the remaining episodes resume Monday April 9th.

Hopefully when they resume, there will be no more long week gaps between episodes.  Unfortunately, the only information I could get regarding the next episodes are from Wikipedia.  So trust it or do not trust.  It's up to you guys.  The next episode is called "Trilogy Time."  I am guessing the writers decided to play around with the boys' favorite movies, the star wars trilogy.  I remember it has been brought up a couple of times in past episodes.  Apparently every three years, the boys (Ted, Marshall, and Barney) get together to watch the Star Wars movies.  Also Barney and Quinn (reoccurring guest star, Becki Newton) finally move in together.  I just hope the next episode is funnier than the last.  I felt that “The Broath” was entertaining and clever, but it did not make me laugh as other episodes have in the past.  I feel if you are going to have to wait for the episodes to broadcast with long breaks in between, the episodes should be worth the wait.

The Broath


(Courtesy of CBS)

Hello fellow HIMYM fans! I really do not know what to expect from this episode this week. Most of you are probably wondering why this photo is bigger than the preceding ones. The reason why I made this photo bigger than the others is because it looks so epic. I mean really, who doesn't like an epic action scene? As you know there was a three week gap between this episode and the last and they really did not give any indication as to what would be in this episode except that Barney and Quinn ultimately want to move in together and the gang disapproves. Meanwhile, Ted and Robin fight over who sublet Quinn's apartment. I do not want to get to into any more detail because I do not want to give away any spoilers for those of you that have not seen it yet. However, I will say that with regards to Ted, It is impossible to go back to just friends with the ones you love. It never works. You can never be just friends because you either want something more out of it or you do not want to feel more for that someone else. I know from my personal experience that I used to be friends with this girl that lived across the street from me. When things escalated for me, well long story short (too many details and I have to stop myself). Let's just say things did not end so well and we hardly even speak to one another anymore. We both made several attempts to make it work and I must credit her trying much harder than I did. Over time with many things involved like being naive as well as impatience, we unfortunately ended up resenting one another in many respects. Yeah so in other words it sucks to be Ted right now. So I have given some light into this episode about Barney and Ted being the characters to mainly focus on. I think that will continue to be the case for the last four episodes, unless Marshall and Lily have their kid in this season. Since there are only four episodes left, new episodes resume on April 17th! See you next week. Here’s the link for this week’s episode:

New Episode March 19th!!!

Greetings fellow HIMYM fans! Unfortunately there are no new episodes for this week.  New episodes resume next Monday with "The Broath".  This episode sounds epic. All I know about this episode is that Barney and Quinn (guest star, Becki Newton) want to move in together.  To me, this sounds a bit crazy because they only went on a second date in the last episode.  Apparently the gang disapproves of Barney's wishes (I probably would too. That is moving way too fast).  Anyways because there is no new episode this week, I would like to take a moment to recap what has been going on lately with the series.  We know that Barney and Quinn are starting to get serious and that Ted is finally starting to get past on waiting around for Robin.  But there has been less focus on Lilly and Marshall.  Other than the bets they have been placing against their friends for years, (that is truly weird) there has been less focus on them.  I mean really? Lilly is about to pop out with a baby. Surely there is got to be something coming soon with that.  I also like to know what happened to Lilly's dad. He promised to stay with them and help to take care of the baby.  However, the last few episodes have not included Mickey (guest star, Chris Elliot).  Hopefully he will be included in the last couple of episodes.   However, I doubt this will be case the case if there continues to be less emphasis on Lily and Marshall in the end of this season.  I guess the writers need to include what is more comical to viewers, which makes perfect sense of course.  It is going to be interesting to see how the season ends.  I can’t wait to see how that unfolds.  Until next week.
