I want to torture you. I used to love it, and it's been a long time. I mean, the last time I tortured someone, they didn't even have chainsaws.

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

How I Met Your Mother was hilarious this week. Good to know they can still come out with funny ones.

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

Oh, I think this last season has been really strong. I like the way they've used the conceit of the whole season happening in one weekend, but with lots of flashbacks and flashforwards.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Me too, Hec. I love that they took the innovative story structure they have with their episodes and applied it to an entire season.

I love that they took the innovative story structure they have with their episodes and applied it to an entire season.

Instead of coasting to the finish line, they compressed everything and they fully exploited their central conceit. Writing's been consistently strong this year.

I had lost so much interest in the show when it had it's bad season of no arc, mostly standalone shows. But they bounced back.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I haven't gotten to the end yet, but I am pretty sure I am going to be earwormed with Troy and Abed in a bubble FOREVER

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh my God, y'all. I need to pause and recover before I go on to Parks and Rec. I love this show so hard.

That may be when the tears kicked in for serious.

(A) I was sitting through the commercials not moving with my jaw hanging open out of sheer overload of awe

(B)There was literal LOL and Gleeful Hand clapping

(C)Streaming tears

How does that fit into 30 minutes? How?
