How I Met Your Mother: Season 6 - Page 11 - OOTV -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

speaking of the kids...they seemed bored and annoyed to be sitting thru this himym story when the story was good...i would love it if they showed a clip of the couch and it was empty cuz they surely have left by now...

I can accept the stuff that Barney does that is WAY over the top and I don't think would ever happen because he's funny and NPH can sell the sh*t out of it. Stuff that would never happen and isn't even remotely funny... Not so much.

Right. The prob isn't that it's unrealistic. The prob is that it's not funny.

We already covered this.

Oh. I just skimmed through and thought the battle was over whether or not things were realistic.

it isn't funny, but it also isnt realistic, because no one in the history of the world would/has done that

lets not kill this topic so fast ^^, I think I found another example of a show that is unrealistic all the time. But still, this joke's main mistake is that it reaches a certain extra level of unrealism combined with not being funny that makes it cringeworthy.
Love that show otherwise though, no worries.

My god. It got worse. Like, a lot worse. Had another yet good idea ruined with the B&R plot that didn't pan out and the rest was just straight garbage.

I don't care about the history of the show or that she's married to the captain: I want cameron to be the mother.

Any one else think that barney paid the security guard off to help him with his lie? Obv not after we found out about the dad but b4

I laughed once where Ted was doing the acoustic part and he said diarrhea or something. Was pretty lame comedywise, story was interesting but god the comedy is **** now.

I really enjoyed this episode. I liked Marshall with the sandwiches in the flashbacks.

I really hope that Zoey leads to the mother. Just so Ted telling this story long story arc makes sense in the big picture.

I thought the Barney/Robin plot in this ep was the best stuff they've done in two seasons.

A light and funny prank/adventure among friends takes with a denouement that unexpectedly but logically folds into previous stories and moves forward the mythology of the show - it was vintage, exactly the way the series worked in seasons 1 and 2.

A new low. Just terrible. The Barney/Robin stuff was too broad. The Marshall plot has been addressed before and even the flashback jokes were repeats. And the ted stuff was straight up ******ed. Whispering gonads and diarrhea into a magic sound tunnel is supposed to be funny? And then he just starts insulting a guy wearing a monocle for no reason, that just seemed mean to me. I mean I get that the guy is probably pretentious but he is a total stranger at an upscale party and Ted just makes fun of him right to his face with no provocation, it seemed weird. I do like Jennifer Morrison though.

Was surprised the 1st comment was negative, I've been a hater pretty much this season but I enjoyed this one.
Also hope they keep Zoey on the show for a while...

One of my favorite episodes in awhile. It had sort of a vintage HIMYM feel. Although, the Barney-Robin storyline was so unrealistic. Let's discuss it for the next week.

Anyone else have a feeling that Zoey Pierson could be the mother? Not sure why I think this, just think it's possible.

sorry didn't read whole thread.
