  1. Being my favorite sitcom (show in general, even) on television these days, it's always enjoyable to see an episode on that I've either never seen, or haven't seen in a while. Season 7 is only four episodes in and it is already off to a great start. The style of storytelling is familiar without being overdone. The continuity is flawless, and the characters are enjoyable as always. I'm excited that they're getting to the parts of the story where we start to figure out how everything gets tied together. All in all, Season 7 has started off great and I expect it to keep utilizing everything that made the show popular while unleashing new stories and hilarious situations. Expand

  2. It's hard to watch a show that you love and come to terms with the fact that maybe it's gone on too long. Without a doubt, HIMYM has a lovable cast continuously, but the basic problem we see this season is that the main character of the show, Ted, is not really the star of the show anymore (or at least midway into the season, it appears so). The show has otherwise jumped back and forth between Marshall and Lily coming to terms about having a family as well as Barney and Robin's tumultuous personal lives. There were only two things that were promising so far have been destroyed just as quickly as they were built up: the first being Ted and Victoria reuniting (which ended anticlimactically in the same episode), while the second was the possibility of Robin having a child with Barney (only for the writers to call the curtains the next episode). As the writers of the show try to avoid conclusions to certain problems, the stories of this group of friends seem more and more unrealistic. While the show's premise of this mystery lady has kept viewers consistently watching over the years, the end is inevitable, so hopefully this show picks up again and brings a great end to what has been an overall great TV series.

  3. What happened to the HIMYM we all used to love? The show is now merely a shadow of what it was in the past. the writing is horrible, the jokes aren't funny, everything is over-dramatized in an unbelievable way. The season premiere was awful, and it just went downhill from there. There are still moments where there are redeemable qualities, where we get to see the show's old essence, but most of the time, it's like "err, is this really the sitcom i used to adore?" truly awful and very disappointing.
