"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

Yeah, we were wondering whether the HIMYM sequence had the same choreographer as Once More With Feeling - but it seems not. The song-and-dance number was fab. How much have Neil and Jason clearly been waiting for that since the Les Mis thing? And Barney was truly awesome this episode. "For those - I mean for that - I mean for her..."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It would have worked better if the bartender's rack had been more impressive, but yeah.

I loved Robin behind the bar!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Saw HIMYM.

Rachel Bilson! Not the Mom!

Also, the surf guitar track they used when Barney was sneaking some suit time in the bathroom stall? That's the track they used in Pulp Fiction for the heroin shooting scene. They shot it in the same way too.

I wish the suits on Robin and Lilly were better fitted. They were kind of baggy. They were not properly suited up!

That one I did pick up on, but I get the sense if I'd been paying attention there might be more.

But I agree on the suits. Those were not glam suits!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Kids in the Hall: uhm, not sure what to make of it.

Archer: Not sure if it’s worth sitting through for the occasional chortle.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Phew, Tom doing the dirty work so I don't have to.

Holy crap, Sigourney Weaver is performing a miracle and making me enjoy a Laser Cats digital short!

Ann, that's a ferret.

Last week's Office was far better than a clips episode had a right to be. I think because Michael was trying so hard to impress the investment bankers' rep -- the funny factor actually outweighed the squirm factor by the largest margin in quite a while.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Archer: Not sure if it’s worth sitting through for the occasional chortle.

Phew, Tom doing the dirty work so I don't have to.

You're missing the best new comedy of the season.
