How I met Your Mother (Season 1)



*ing : Josh Radnor, Jason Segel, Cobie Smulders, Neil Patrick Harris, Alyson Hannigan
Creators : Carter Bays, Craig Thomas

Tagline : A love story in reverse.

I wanted a comedy show of 20-25 mins run time to get me thru morning breakfast. Entourage was my perfect companion for that. Bt since its over, I cudnt find any other show to fill its large shoes. I generally avoid shows which has too many seasons of it.(How I met your mother currently is in 9th season. Incidentally also its last.)
How I met your mother (HIMYM) is fun show. Good time pass. Kind what I wanted. The basic premise is quite close to Friends (unfortunately every show with group of friends together will always be compared to FRIENDS) but HIMYM has more similarity. Bunch of friends staying in New York city and facing the issues of living alone. Job, love, sex, insecurities and how friends are important as a part of life.
There basically 5 characters , Ted, Marshal, Lily, Barney and last but not least, very lovely Robin played by Cobie Smulders who I hv to say i hv developed rather big crush on.
Its year 2030 and Ted is telling story to his kids as how he met their mother. This premise is inspired by a movie Defintely, Maybe which was also fun.
So ya, we also cruise along the journey of Ted Mosby and see how he finds his wife. At the end of season, Ted and Robin are couple. And they seem destined for it. Almost like Ross and Rachel from Friends. It will be sad if he marries anyone else.
Lets see how his life goes from here.
