I wish I had never been made aware of this show, waiting a week for new episodes sucks now.

 

[Starbreaker]

I thought I had missed it.. but it's only Monday! I love this show.

 

[AstroSmurf]

I unfortunately missed last week's but I am NOT missing this week's episode. It looks like classic HIMYM. Can't wait!

 

[IndyJones]

Did you see the list of "All-Time High Scorers" in the LASER tag manager's office?

It had about 50 listings, all of them 'Stinson'.

 

[CaptMurdock]

Yeah! First vote!

Okay, great episode! The teaser had me on the floor, with the LaserTag manager giving Barney the old captain-chews-out-renegade-cop speech, ending with Barney pinning a kid to the floor and blasting him while laughing maniacally.

And Lilly's line:"If you don't come back tomorrow like a teddy bear stuffed with candy and rainbows, I'll make what happened when I uncovered your internet browser history look like a picnic!"

And Barney at the end: "My ear hurts so much, I can hear it! I can hear my own ear...I want you to think about that!"

It is getting a little funny the way 2/5 of the show's cast are increasingly pregnant and trying to look like they aren't!

Yeah, but I'm glad they're going that route and not with introducing one or both of the babies into the show - that would make it even stranger that they're drinking in the bar during the day all the time.

 

[BigFoot]

^ Agreed.

 

[TGTheodore]

Ooh! Some Cobie Smulders thigh!

-- Ted (die-hard "leg man")

 

[InvisibleGT]

My name's not Ref... It's Kenny.

 

[Tomato]

Awesome show!!

And yeah Bunny Colvin from the Wire got some screen time.

 

[Shurik]

Barney with pink hair - priceless

 

[Kryton]

"I don't think it was aspirin they gave me!"

 

[Data Holmes]

I think they should write Smulders's pregnancy into the show and make it Barney's kid from the time they hooked up.

 

[Kirby]

I like the fact that they're intentionally putting Alyson Hannigan's belly behind big round things like a globe and a basketball.

OK, good point...!

I like the fact that they're intentionally putting Alyson Hannigan's belly behind big round things like a globe and a basketball.

Yeah, that is really funny. At least they're having fun with it!

Huh I have never even noticed the creators were trying to hide actresses' pregnancies. They've been doing a good job!

 

[Tomato]

^

seriously what about the hot dog eating contest?

 

[Agent Richard07]

I think they're doing a pretty good job of hiding the pregnancies.

I think they should write Smulders's pregnancy into the show and make it Barney's kid from the time they hooked up.

I had that idea too, but it's too late for that.
