From tvguide:
Elsewhere, Alyson Hannigan has joined CBS' How I Met Your Mother, an ensemble comedy about a family man reminiscing about his bachelor days.

Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

Best wishes to AH, of course, but this:
How I Met Your Mother, an ensemble comedy about a family man reminiscing about his bachelor days.
Makes it sound like the kind of show I would cross the street to avoid. The premise seems very finite to me, and you know it'll turn out to be one of those slobby comedian/gorgeous wife shows in terms of casting.

I'm sad because it must mean that there will be no great AH arc on Veronica Mars next year and possibly no Veronica Mars.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Why might it mean no Veronica Mars?

If she's part of the main cast on the sitcom, it would suggest to me that AH isn't under contract for 22 episodes of VMars, anyhow. But was her part meant to be more than a one-episode thing to start with? (Haven't seen the show yet.)

Zap2it has more details, but they don't know what AH's character will be. Neil Patrick Harris and Jason Segel are also signed for this pilot.

There was some talk somewhere that said that if they couldn't get AH to come back to VM next year, it would be unlikely that there would be a next year for VM.

Could Alyson move her Evil Willow character over to the new sitcom and flay the slobby comedian? I'd watch that...
