Thought HIMYM was kind of eh.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I thought it was great.

I loved the end with Barney. You were all melty and sad, then BAM!
Marshall is getting pretty annoying, though.

I disagree! His line about the only people who haven't seen Star Wars was one of the best lines in the series.

Having one funny line doesn't obviate the annoying behavior for the rest of the show.

What is even happening?
I think Marshall was supposed to be annoying, because he's unemployed. Ted really annoyed me, last night, much more than anyone else.
My weecap of it is up at TWoP.
I didn't give it an A+ (although I did give it an A). I'm not sure what happened there, but I'm not going to bother the editor over something so trivial.
Barney and Lily could have their own show. They're adorable.

Does anyone, anywhere know a guy Ted's age who is so hell-bent on marriage for its own sake?
Maybe he has my parents.
She adds to ask something personal, so Barney asks Robin at what age she first got her period. See, isn't that romantic?
This is where I nearly fell off the couch laughing.
From Ted's bedroom, Marshall tries to listen in on Stella's movie watching -- with the old glass-to-the-wall trick. Does that work?
I think so. It's science!
End tag: our favorite five are at MacLaren's, laughing and talking.
Wait, what? I DID NOT GET AN END TAG. WHERE DID THAT COME FROM?

I don't know. Maybe I was expecting too much but it came off as kind of more rote sitcom to me. Like, if Stella really had an allergy that severe she wouldn't have mentioned it to someone making her food??? That just seems like the kind of intentional withholding of information leading to "hilarious" consequences thing that any old sitcome would do. I expect more from HIMYM.
