Listen up, HIMYM fans. Tonight at 7pm EST, the fresh and funny sitcom is making its syndication debut on the women-centric network Lifetime.
Even better, the present schedule seems to indicate the episodes will rotate in proper broadcast order, at least initially, which is always a much welcome and infrequent bonus. Hooray!
Lifetime will offer two back-to-back episodes of How I Met Your Mother each Monday from 7pm to 8pm EST. First out of the gate tonight is the series-opening “Pilot,” followed by installment Number Two, “Purple Giraffe,” both of which chronicle the earliest stages of Ted’s relationship with …read more

Still unable to find work as an environmental lawyer after many interviews, Marshall becomes obsessed with the best burger he’s ever eaten in New York when the gang tries out and approves of a lesser burger at the bar.
The legendary burger haunting Marshall from eight years ago also happened to be his very first burger in New York, back when he was a fresh-faced 22-year-old newly arrived from Minnesota. According to him, the burger was at a hole-in-the-wall he stumbled on when Ted, tired of him moping around the apartment and acting afraid to …read more

How I Met Your Mother welcomes special guest star Regis Philbin tonight.
Is he not the coolest guy his age ever? The series has a pretty nice episode for him, too, where he’ll join Marshall on a hunt for the best burger in New York City. That won’t be an easy undertaking, I’m sure, but it should be fun.
Check out a couple of advance clips of Reege’s appearance in the videos after the jump.

So, what was the How I Met Your Mother gang up to over the summer?
Ted was happily engaged to Stella, who we learn said yes to his marriage proposal after he envisions her saying no in several of the worst possible ways (laughing, incredulous, admitting she preferred the high school rival who called him Turd instead of Ted all the time).
Marshall coped with being unemployed (by continually asking everyone what they’re doing).
Lily threw herself into her painting.
Barney recovered from the bus accident with physical therapy.
And poor Robin developed a deep hatred for her news-anchor job.

Yep, it’s another video recap for those with short memories. Check out the footage below to brush up on all things Ted, Barney, Lily, Marshall, and Robin that happened during Season Three of How I Met Your Mother.
Among the many highlights, just off the top of my head and in random order, there was the dissolution of Ted and Barney’s bro-hood, the disappointment of Lily and Marshall’s first apartment, the discovery of dermatologist Stella and her ditzy receptionist played by a certain aging pop tart, and the bedding of Robin by Barney (saved the best for last).

That’s right, How I Met Your Mother fans. When the CBS sitcom returns on Monday, September 22, at 8:30pm EST for its fourth season, Scrubs star Sarah Chalke will return, as well, to reprise her role as doctor and potential mother of Ted’s children Stella Zinman. If you’re a Reno 911! fan, also making a guest appearance as a paramedic is Cedric Yarbrough, better known as Deputy S. Jones on the Comedy Central improv series.
Other than that, the description of the season premiere “Do I Know You?” is pretty straightforward: Stella gives Ted a response to his marriage …read more

This episode is all about Lily and Marshall selling some of their stuff to raise the funds they need to get the slanted floor in their new apartment fixed, as well as Barney and Abby (Guest Star Britney Spears) getting revenge on Ted for dumping them both.
When still-jobless Marshall learns it’s going to cost $1500, much more than the estimate, to repair the floor in his and Lily’s new apartment, he decides she needs to sell some of her expensive clothes online since his dowdy clothes aren’t the kind of things people would actually pay …read more

It’s just a few days before TED’s 30th birthday, which will become known forever among the gang as The Day of the Goat, and we meet up with BARNEY and ROBIN the morning after they’ve slept together. Ashamed, both agree to carry on as usual, as if nothing ever happened.
Unfortunately, that’s easier for Robin to do than Barney, and he becomes consumed with guilt for sleeping with his best friend’s ex. His solution to get rid of his angst is to hire unemployed MARSHALL to be his lawyer after confessing the secret. …read more

The April 21 episode of How I Met Your Mother, “Sandcastles in the Sand,” features Dawson’s Creek alum James Van Der Beek as a guest star.
He plays a past love of Robin who shows up, resulting in a huge treat for viewers — yet another 1980s video by perky Robin Sparkles, this one for a ballad called “Sandcastles in the Sand.” When things don’t work out with the jerk guy again, Barney, of all people, steps in to support her.
How I Met Your Mother airs Mondays on CBS at 8:30pm EST.

The April 14 episode of How I Met Your Mother is called “The Chain of Screaming.” What a weird title, a variation of “the chain of command,” and it’s meant literally.
The target of said screaming is poor, nice guy Marshall (played by Jason Segel, who’s currently starring in Forgetting Sarah Marshall at a movie theater near you). As a result of the dressing down by his boss, he begins giving his legal career path some serious scrutiny, wondering if it was such a good idea to go corporate after all. With a boss like that, probably not.
