The plot is genius, the cast is great, and every episode is so well written! NPH is especially hilarious. My only problem with this show is that I have to wait a week to see a new episode! ;-(</p>...

You think that you will find out who the mother is and you never do. Oh and Barney he is the funniest guy with all his one liners. Ted just can't seem to catch a break, just when things go right something always happens. Marshall and Lilly are there to help everyone out.  Over all I would recommend this show to anyone out there who would like to have a good laugh.</p>...

It comes on CBS on monday nights and now will be airing at 7 pm central. The stars are lilly who was also in one of my other favorite tv series, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and from the American Pie fame. In addition it was a great outlet to reintroduce fans to Doogie Howser MD all grown up, dressed in a 3 piece suit and all about the "Bro's" . He stars in this show as a womanizer looking for all the wrong things but super successful Barney.</p> <p>This show is a smart comedy that showcases the dynamcs between a married couple, the endless romantic, Ted (father of the kids who can't wait for him to share who their mother it), Robin, Ted's ex-girlfriend and 1 time fling of Barney and the forever single Barney.</p> <p>Now as a mother of 3 kids under the age of 9 this is definetly not a family friendly show for these ages.  But it is something that my husband and i can enjoy and thankfully...</p>...

We look forward to it every Monday evening.  It's the only show that we really missed during the writer's strike!</p>&#13; <p>All of the characters are very well developed.  Ted is the loveable guy, that my husband says he can relate to -- the hopeless romantic looking for love. (It definitely helps knowing that he ends up married, otherwise it might just be sad!).  Every new relationship keeps you wondering if SHE'S the mother. </p>&#13; <p>Jason Seagle (sp?) plays Marshall, and he's probably the funniest character on the show.  He and Lily are happily married, which is something you just don't see on t.v. -- at least not in such a committed, happy, funny way as they pull it off on this show.</p>&#13; <p>Robin and Barney also provide...</p>...

It's actually laugh-out-loud funny! And it's not just me, my boyfriend (who is definitely not into sitcoms) laughs along with me - now that's saying something! How can you go wrong with Bob Saget narrating and Dougie Howser as a womanizing player? I'd watch the show just for his "sayings".  I kinda hope he doesn't find the kids' mother because then the show's pretty much over...

I didn't instantneously fall in love with it but it wasn't long before I did. I was so addicted to it that I had to catch up on all of the episodes on the internet and every times it's on TV I have to watch it. It is realistically hilarious. The characters aren't oblivious to the antics of the entire gang and the fact that it's so down to earth and easy to relate to is it's best quality. Barney, Ted, Robin, Marshall, and Lily are people that you probably know in real life and an absolute laugh. The years I spent without any knowledge of this show were an utter waste....

All the characters have there own neurotic behavior but in very funny ways. Barney kills me and make me laugh out loud. They need to move Ted on to another relationship and the writers need to come up with some more tag lines for Barney.  Although, I have yet to find out who the mother is, I am assuming when that happens the series will be over. It is mindless entertainment....

Ranked up there with Friends and Gilmore Girls. The writing is clever and the actors have wonderful repertoire with one another. Neil Patrick Harris made his comeback ten-fold with is portrayal of Barney, a ladies man that now is in love with his best friend's ex-girlfriend and roommate. Alison Hannigan and Jason Segel make the perfect couple! I definitely recommend this show to everyone, it offers plenty of laughs and heart!...

While the overarching narrative structure (each episode is presented as a story the main character Ted tells his circa-2030 children about the path his life took to lead him up to meeting their mother) is kind of cheesy, the writing is fresh and timely, avoiding most the gimmicks of other comedies. The show is witty, incorporating emerging slang and creating some of its own. The ensemble cast has great chemistry, but Neil Patrick Harris is the real standout here, his womanizing Barney a far cry from his days as a teen doctor and far closer to the NPH of Harold &amp; Kumar movies....
