I have the very unfortunate problem of not being able to regularly watch the show, but a friend of mine grabs all he can on his PVR and we watch them when we can. So far I have two favourites the 'Slap-bet' episode (the ongoing joke is priceless in later episodes) and the one where Robin becomes 'American' but slips back into her Canadian ways and ends up in the "Most Canadian place ever" (the Tim Horton's around the corner from the Hockey Hall of Fame)... especially because the only Timmy's that could be is about (aboot?) ten minutes walk from my place. :)
 
Forgot to mention: Another great episode is The Perfect Burger.

Lily: This tastes like Christmas! Christmas is my mouth!

Ted: It tastes like an angel landed in the kitchen at McLaren's... and the chef killed it and ran it through the meat grinder.

Barney: This tastes so good, I want to staple my a** shut.

If you didn't live in the USA, I have them all in iPhone format. I'd happily send them all to you, but I think postage would be a bit much for a good will gesture :p
 
The thing that blows me away is the ability of NPH as a gay man to play such a straight guy. I mean he isn't just some straight guy on tv, it's Barney, a womanizing awesomeness. Wonder if it was awkward for him?

He's an actor, his job is to be someone he's not. :)
 
Slapsgiving is what got me into the show but The Duel is one of my favs. The lemon law for dating is awesome. Marshall is my favorite character next to the goat.

Slap bet is fantastic as well and of course Nothing Good Happens After 2 a.m.
 
I just want to know where I can buy some TANTRUM.

(Ideally some that hasn't already eat through the can)

Whilst I'm not sure you can actually buy it anywhere, there is a facebook fanpage. Tantrum energy drink

Did anyone else think Tantrum was also a slight homage to Powerthirst? I know the guys at Picnicface have worked with other companies to produce ads mimicking Powerthirst, I think Ford (??) did one a few years ago.

That's true, and I totally agree. I'm a big fan of NPH (I actually liked him before HIMYM, because I saw him in Starship Troopers :D)



Internet high five!

Yeah the super brain. Too bad the sequels sucked.
 
A once great show. Last season and this one both sucked.
Yeah, I am re-watching from the beginning (thank you Netflix) while also following the new episodes, and it does feel like the show's lost its way a bit. There are a few recent highlights that come to mind, though. The episode with the countdown (where you-know-who died at the end) was very moving, I thought, as was the episode where Robin found out that she'd never be a pole vaulter.
