Now We Are Even

(Courtesy of CBS)

Ah man this week's episode was great.  The writers this season have done a great job of making it unpredictable to guess what each episode will entail.  Even though, I do not like giving overviews or synopses of any episodes, I will break my rule.  This is for good reason though.  I want to give a very important life lesson that cannot be taken away from this episode.  So in this episode, Barney tries to convince Ted that every night should be a "legendary."  This is because Barney is insecure that his girlfriend is a stripper. (Barney is unable to get past what his girlfriend is doing for her "customers."  So to not think about it, Barney attempts to do things every night to get his mind off of it. 

Meanwhile, Marshall tries to figure out whom Lily has a sex dream about.  He knows it is someone that the gang knows.  At the same time Robin wants to get some more recognition for what she does as news anchor because the security guard ID's her every time she walks into the building when there is a giant poster of her next to his desk.  Robin is then forced to land a helicopter on her own because her pilot has a stroke and then everyone in New York figures out whom she is.  That brings me to my point of the important life lesson....  Ted has not spoken to Robin in a long time, but he still sends her a text to say that he hopes she is ok (Ted said to her that he loved her, but she did not feel the same way).  The life lesson is that insecurities mean nothing in this life.  Once people realize this, the only thing that matters is the people in their lives.

The Trilogy

(Courtesy of CBS)

Greetings fellow HIMYM fans!  “Hilarious” would be the best word to describe last night's episode.  I had no idea of what to expect from it.  For those of you that may have not gotten the chance to see it, I will not give anything away.  For those of you not familiar with this episode, it is about Barney, Ted, and Marshall getting together every three years to watch the Star Wars trilogy.  Meanwhile, Barney and Quinn have some issues as a couple.  I really saw this particular episode as a turning point for some things that are changing among the characters of the series.  I did not used to think that the series was closer to the end until today.  After this episode, I feel that there are maybe only 2 or 3 seasons left.  

It is kind of sad when you think about it; I am already sad this season is about to end because it has been the most interesting so far.  Only four episodes remain!  We still have yet to see if Quinn is the girl Barney ends up marrying and if Ted’s future wife was his date at Barney’s wedding.  I am waiting for next week in great anticipation.  As a preview for next week’s episode, I will say that Ted is feeling lonely in his apartment and Barney tries to persuade Ted to start going out every night.  Meanwhile, Robin starts her new job as the co-anchor of World Wide News and Lily has a wet dream, but Marshall is not in it.  It is safe to say that this season’s finale is going to be great, but we still have no clue of what to expect really.  I hope all ends well for Ted.  He has been through a lot lately.  Until next week, my fellow fans!

New Episodes Resume Next Week!

Ah finally the wait is almost over my fellow HIMYM fans.  I am glad to say that next week the show is back with a new episode.  Last night, while I was watching the national college basketball championship game, I realized that new episodes would have probably resumed this week had it not been for the game.  When I was looking online for more info regarding the last five episodes that remain, I could not help but remember that overall, this season future Ted is also telling his kids about the stories that led to Barney's wedding day.  I had completely forgotten this is how the season started.  Now that I remember, I wonder if Quinn is going to be a regular cast member for next season.  Is the "legendary" tale of Barnabus Stinson coming to an end? I do not know, but we shall see.  Will Barney marry a stripper?  That sounds so perfect for his character and I could not picture it any other way.

I am in great anticipation of the season finale because apparently the gang also reminisces about the time they encouraged Ted to go after the one that got away.  I do not know about you all, but the only girl that I can think matches that profile is Victoria (former guest star, Ashley Williams).  That is to say if it one of the numerous girls that Ted has dated that we know of.  We know it is not Zoey (former guest star, Jennifer Morrison) because the gang discouraged him from getting back together with her.  So that leaves it to Victoria, who he had the chance to snatch back from the German guy she met in Europe.  I can't wait for this season to end.  It has definitely been the most interesting season thus far.  I am looking forward to the end of this season.  See you all next week.
