Format:DVD
This show takes the audience on a bit of a backwards journey down memory lane. The premise has the narrator (Ted) telling his two children the story of how he met their mother. Along the way we meet Lilly and Marshall (known to each other by the sickeningly sweet nicknames Marshmellow and Lillypad) who are a funny, picture perfect cute couple (well...they are now, anyway, after their relationship trouble in season 1). We also meet Robin (Ted's on again, off again girlfriend who turns out *not* to be his future wife) and that rascally womanizing egomaniac, Barney.

I think the casting in this show was outstanding. Neil Patrick Harris shines as Barney, and Alyson Hannigan puts forth a brilliant performance each episode as Lilly. The character of Ted is a good fit for Josh Radnor (who we have thus far only seen in small bit parts in various films, such as Not Another Teen Movie (Unrated Director's Cut). Jason Segal and Cobie Smulders round out the cast nicely as Marshall and Robin. (and if you think you might recognize the voice of the "older Ted Mosbey" during the narrating portion of the show...it's probably because you do. The narrator is actually Bob Saget).

Season 2 pretty much picks up where season 1 left off. In a bizarre case of cold feet, Lilly breaks off her engagement with Marshall and moves to California for an art internship. Marshall is left in New York, alone and heartbroken, while Robin and Ted strike out in their new relationship (despite the fact that they both know they want very different things out of life). Barney, as always, provides much of the comic relief throughout the show, and remains his usual womanizing self. Season 2, from start to finish, is hilarious.

5.0 out of 5 stars HIMYM - Season Two! August 13, 2007
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Ted, Marshall, Lily, Robin and Barney. TV's quirkiest set of friends since NBC's Friends are back with 22 more sensational episodes in How I Met Your Mother - Season Two. Following the Season One finale breakup of Marshall and Lily which resulted in Lily leaving for San Francisco on an art internship, leaving Marshall emotionally lost, Season Two opens with the gang helping Marshall cope with the void left by his "Lilypad" which, of course, leads to hilarious situations. Marshall unknowingly "dating" his friend from law school, Brad, who also recently broke up with his girlfriend in "World's Greatest Couple" comes to mind. Also returning for Season Two is director Pamela D. Fryman, who again guides the episodes (19 of 22) with her pitch perfect direction. As with Season One, all 22 episodes of How I Met Your Mother - Season Two are a delight and not to be missed. Guest stars this season include Michael Gross ("Family Ties"), Cristine Rose ("Heroes"), Jane Seymore ("Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman"), Bryan Cranston ("Malcolm in the Middle"), Wayne Brady ("Who's Line Is It, Anyway?") and Bob Barker ("The Price is Right"). How I Met Your Mother - Season Two is a 3-disc (484 min.) set featuring all 22 episodes from the 2006-2007 season; Anamorphic Widescreen (1.78:1) video; plus extras.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great TV Show!!! July 31, 2007
Format:DVD
This is the best TV show of the last 5 years in my opinion. This show (and Scrubs) single handedly saved me from throwing my TV out the window. In a world where reality television is king, HIMYM saves the sitcom format. Even with the forever-parodied "laugh track", the show works. Focusing on Ted Moesby, he is looking for "Miss Right" while, 30 years into future his older counterpart (voiced by Bob Saget) is relaying each weeks adventure to his children. There are some great episodes in this season, but maybe the greatest episode is "Slap Bet". I cannot imagine the DVD being anything less than Legen......dary!

We started watching this show midway through season one at the reccommedation of a family member. It quickly became our favorite, and we waited with anticipation every week to watch, even if we knew it would be a rerun.
The relationship between the characters is much more realistic than with the show "Friends" (where everyone is so nice and mature with each other and every ending is sickenly sweet). HIMYM shows TRUE friendships - the joking around, mocking each other, plenty of inside jokes (that they share with the viewer, and of course, helping each other out. The running gags they have (Robin's Canadian accent and heritage, slap bet, and... oh, I don't want to ruin it for the 'virgin' viewers.)

Just buy it. You will not regret it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another great season of an underrated show September 6, 2007
Format:DVD
Note: This review contains Spoilers. I have to admit, I was a little concerned when the second season began. I mean, having Marshall and Lily break up was kind of a downer. But I'm glad I decided to keep watching, because this year easily contains some of the show's funniest episodes. My wife and I put on "Slap Bet" anytime we need a little pick-me-up. And of course, there's the "Robin Sparkles" episode, in which Cobie Smulders (like the show itself, a criminally-underrated comic actress) really gets a chance to shine. "Swarley" is a Barney Stinson classic. And "Arrivederci, Fiero" may be the biggest laugh-getter of the season.

How I Met Your Mother may never quite achieve Classic Sitcom status. And you know, that's really fine with me. I wouldn't want too much success to go to their heads. But I'll keep watching and laughing myself silly.
