Jeremy and Juliet Darling “the well behaved twins” of Dirty Sexy Money are hilariously exuberant, devilishly selfish and ultimately big hearted. Like all the best sibling characters, Jeremy and Juliet have each others’ backs through thick and thin. But not only are they the characters I most find myself sympathizing with, they are also the […]

HIMYM Returned and I Couldn’t Stop Smiling
  Kelly Bedard

In a charming story line that brought the Ted and Marshall friendship back to top form and their adorable nerdiness to the foreground, they made Stella (Ted’s new fiancee, Sarah Chalke) watch Star Wars(Ted’s favourite movie) for the first time. Not only is it always fun to be reminded that these are not the cool kids, […]

How I Met Your Mother’s season finale
  Kelly Bedard

Ladies and gentlemen, that is how it is done. FRIENDSHIP: Barney can womanize, gamble, cheat and manipulate all he wants and will always remain a sympathetic character because the audience has always known (and he proved in this week’s episode) that he would scale mountains for his friends. and LOVE: Neil Patrick Harris didn’t say […]

Robin Sparkles… Again
  Kelly Bedard

So How I Met Your Mother brought back Robin Sparkles- desperate? Yeah. Effective? well,… yeah. It wasn’t up to the calibre of “slap bet” (the original Robin Sparkles episode) but this week’s HIMYMwas pretty funny. The accents weren’t even slightly accurate and thus simply annoying but the plot was fun, the B story (other characters’ […]

CBS Comedies: a stop and go situation
  Kelly Bedard

This week’s How I Met Your Mother was good, not great. There was some quality Barney, some decent Ted, and some funny Robin. I was happy to see a Marshall-centric episode since he’s been ignored for most of the season but was disappointed to have my suspicion confirmed that he’s become too broad a character… and Lily’s […]

Barney’s stalker search: Legendary!
  Kelly Bedard

If last week’s How I Met Your Motherwas all A story, this week was all B story and neither suffered at all for it. Barney’s quest to find his mystery scorned stalker girl was hilarious. The rest of the cast got some quality screen time in too. There were references to some classic episodes (Ted […]

Last night’s episode of How I Met Your Mother marked, as predicted, the return of the sweet, determined and hopelessly romantic Ted that we all fell in love with. His 10 week pursuit of and diligently planned 2 minute date with Stella were perhaps some of the best Ted moves since he searched out Victoria […]

How I Re-Met Ted
  Kelly Bedard

How I Met Your Mother returned tonight with the first new post-strike episode. It wasn’t one of their best but it served a very important function. In HIMYM‘s first season I loved Ted. He was the hopelessly romantic, extremely picky, cute, sweet, laid back best friend of a perfect couple who was looking to find […]
