How I Met Your Mother

Keeping up with my favorite TV shows. The season premier is Monday at 8 pm on CBS.

Brief Plot Synopsis: The title of the show is pretty much the plot. We follow Ted Mosby and his 4 best friends from 2005 on his search for his future wife (or at least mother of the kids he is talking to).

Episodes for Beginners: "The Slutty Pumpkin" (Season 1, episode 6), "The Pineapple Incident" (Season 1, episode 10)

Favorite Episode: "Slap Bet" (Season 2, episode 9)

I watched the first 4 seasons of HIMYM last summer to be caught up in time for season 5. Unfortunately, season 5 kind of sucked. Still, the creators have said that they know what went wrong and hope that this season is back to the old form. In it's best, HIMYM is one of the funniest shows on TV. As for the plot, I'm starting to get tired of it and want him to (SPOILER ALERT!!!!!) find the mother soon.





**Forgot to metion, this is another show I watch from the suggestion of Alan Sepinwall

Salute to Fiction

Here is my salute to my two favorite blogs created by fictional characters. You'd be surprised how many of them are out there, but these two by far are my favorites.

First up is "Barney's Blog" from "How I Met Your Mother". Barney writes on a variety of things, from what it means to be a Bro (Also in his "Bro Code", a book I have), to how to score with a certain chick where, to general thoughts on his fictitious life.

Next up are "Creed Thoughts" from "The Office". Creed blogs about...well basically anything. If you don't watch The Office, then this might seem hilarious. It should still be funny, but you really really have to know the Creed character to appreciate this.

Anyway, I recommend that you check them both out. They are great time killers, and quite humorous.
