There's something ironically wonderful about the fact that one of TV's most popular womanizers is played by an openly gay man.

it probably makes things easier. its like dave chappell playing P-diddy or colbert playing uhhh colbert. he is just imitating a slick womanizer he just exaggerates the role.

To clarify though, he was closeted when the show started.

[–]catboom 3 points4 points ago

I would not doubt that the showrunners knew when he was cast though.

[–]throw-me-a-way 8 points9 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It checks out, although I wouldn't say 'closeted', he just hadn't confirmed it publicly.

HIMYM premiered on September 19, 2005.
NPH openly confirmed being gay in November 2006.

Barney doesn't wear suits to sad events, apparently this includes apocalypses.

Ted: So let me get this straight. A funeral is the one time you don't suit up?

Barney: Have I taught you nothing, Ted?

Ted: Virtually.

Barney: Suits are full of joy. They're the sartorial equivalent of a baby's smile.

[–]theoneiwantedwasgone 33 points34 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

You watch it so much that despite your best efforts you grow to love the film. Eventually you even stop noticing the shitty parts of it and are convinced that there is absolutely nothing wrong with this movie. Only when you have brainwashed yourself to the point that you believe at the core of your being there is nothing shitty about this film, only then have you watched the shit out of it.

I'm still confused by this show. Reddit openly condemns Two and a Half Men and Big Bang Theory as mostly garbage, but How I Met Your Mother gets a free pass? I've only seen the first 3 episodes but it's just the same typical sitcom stuff we've seen for years. It has it's clever jokes, but so do other typical sitcoms.

It's like the IT Crowd all over again :/

[–]choochoo22 15 points16 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I am one who loves How I Met Your Mother but dislikes the other two. I don't think they are comparable at all. You probably need to watch more than 3 episodes of HIMYM to really enjoy the show as some of its best moments come when referencing itself. (like arrested development, though admittedly not as good)

[–]ghjm 4 points5 points ago

"Sitcoms are bad" is only a Priority 5 downvote meme. It gets overridden by the Priority 2 "whedonesque is good" meme.

[–]Flip2006 5 points6 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

You need to watch more than 3 episodes of HIMYM to really understand the greatness of the show. Also Neil Patrick Harris and Jason Segel bring the show to a completely different level. Also I think people like the fact that the entire show has one big storyline that is being followed and it isn't just a bunch of random episodes.

[–]good2goo 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I personally think the laugh track guys kill Two and a Half Men and Big Bang Theory. On those shows every one liner gets an uproar of laughter like they really thought that was a hilarious joke. I just get the feeling the writers are idiots to think each joke is that funny. On How I Met Your Mother the laugh track seems to be a lot more subtle and even the really good jokes the volume of the laugh track seems to be a lot quieter.

Another thing is there is a lot less one line jokes in How I Met Your Mother.

[–]AetherFlash 3 points4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I actually didn't notice there was a laugh track in himym until somebody pointed it out to me.

You have just learned Reddit's secret. We all have different opinions. gasp

[–]bill_nydus 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I'm not an idiot, I can understand if someone likes this show and that's fine, but it's just that the hivemind will upvote anything involving this show while condemning anything from Two and A Half Men like it's somehow so beneath it.

[–]a_small_thump 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I just started watching How I Met Your Mother last month as a compromise between me and a roommate (way different tastes). Takes about 4-5 episodes to get acquainted with it and start really enjoying it, but there are some really great moments in it. They do have very good writers IMHO. Not a fan of two and a half men, and never watched big bang theory--I'm generally a Simpsons-comedy kind of guy. HIMYM is worth giving a chance, really.

[–]artschoolvillian 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I personally think it has to go with the characters of the show. Each and every one of them has struggles that go throughout the series and each of them evolve. This allows for better story telling and is able to portray actual lessons to the audience to be learned. Where as shows like Two and A Half Men seems to be like a show that has no real evolution and, while funny, seems to be the same problem in each episode. But then again I haven't watched all that much of TaAHM nearly as much, nor this new season.

[–]redditfromwork 7 points8 points ago

[–]wookiesandwich -3 points-2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

i don't get it at all either...all 3 of those shows are just incredibly bad formulaic shit. BBT I can at least semi understand because redditors get a stiffy anytime someone makes a nerd culture reference...plus it has forever alone guys and a hot chick so I can see the base appeal. But HIMYM is just a terrible sitcom but for some reason redditors just think Barney and all his zany antics are the funniest thing since Richard Pryor

[–]catboom 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Forever alone guys? As of the end of the latest season one is engaged to be married, one is practically in two different relationships, one is in a "relationship" but neither side will admit it, and the last... Well yea he has to get drunk to talk to women at all so yea extreme forever alone there.

Shameless plug here for The Last Man on Earth. If you're interested in an actual adaption of I Am Legend, rather than just another zombie movie that stole the name for marketing purposes. Even though it was made in the 60's, it's still a pretty good movie.
