How I Met Your Mother Recap: Goats, Slaps, and Tramp Stamps

BuzzSugar — Mon, 15 Sep 2008 10:37:21 -0700

We've seen a lot of great preview clips for returning shows that will soon be back on the air to tie up last season's cliffhangers. But where's How I Met Your Mother? The CBS comedy finished strong last Spring, aided by a couple of guest appearances by Britney Spears, a great plotline involving Sarah Chalke as a candidate for "the mother," and a cliffhanger that's had me waiting all Summer for an answer. But though it premieres just a week from tonight, I still haven't seen much about what the new season holds - just a teeny tiny clip of Barney being, well, Barney.

So, for now, I suppose I'll have to be content with this adorable recap of season three, which hits all the highlights - tramp stamps, goats, slaps (lots of slaps), Robin Sparkles, and the potentially inappropriate bedding of best friends. Yup, that's what this show is all about.

To check out the brief Barney clip and the season three recap - and to tell me your thoughts for what happened after that final Ted/Stella scene - just read more.

TV Tonight: "How I Met Your Mother"

Happy Slapsgiving, everyone! Tonight on How I Met Your Mother, the slap bet makes its triumphant return. People raving about last year's inaugural slap bet was 80 percent of what convinced me to start watching the show, so I'm now ready to witness the genius for myself.

The idea behind this slap bet is that Marshall has let Barney in on when the slap is coming (remember SlapCountdown.com?). But something tells me it's not going to be so easy to prepare for the next hit. All of this, meanwhile, is taking place during the first Thanksgiving hosted by Marshall and Lily, which should have some hilarity of its own. To watch a clip from the episode, just read more

Catch Up on "How I Met Your Mother" in Three Minutes

After much persuasion from Pop and several other friends, I've decided this will be the year I finally start watching "How I Met Your Mother" (OK, the Mandy Moore cameo on tonight's season premiere helped). But that left me with a dilemma: How can I possibly watch the first two seasons in time for the start of tonight's third?

Thank goodness The TV Addict tipped me off to a great video that hits all the high points of the first two seasons. Hey, now I'll get everyone's slap bet jokes! If you, too, need a refresher, just read more

TV Wedding Party Moment: "How I Met Your Mother"

BuzzSugar — Mon, 14 May 2007 16:04:08 -0700

This week, the Sugar Network is your guide to bachelorette parties, wedding showers and all the other partying fun that comes before a wedding. Here on Buzz, I'll be bringing you a couple of fun wedding party moments from TV, plus a rockin' playlist for a bachelorette party. Don't forget to check out our previous wedding coverage, too.

To kick things off for party week, I've got this clip from "How I Met Your Mother" - which continues its wedding fun tonight during its season finale, if you're interested. In this clip, Robin wasn't sure what to give Lily for her bridal shower, so she asked Barney - who suggested she pick up some, uh, adult toys. Not realizing she might want to save those special treats for the bachelorette party, she showed up with her racy gift, only to find the room filled with grandmothers, aunts and other refined folks. Note to self: Don't be like Robin. To watch the video, read more

The Results Are In: Recast "Charlie's Angels"

BuzzSugar — Tue, 20 Feb 2007 12:00:15 -0800

For last Wednesday's Recast challenge, I chose a TV show that was recently made into a movie but would still make a great series if it were recast for modern audiences. That show, of course, is "Charlie's Angels," and you could use any sassy women you wanted with the exception of Drew, Cameron, and Lucy.

You guys had some great ideas: I loved Rockstar's choice of Kristen Bell to play Farrah Fawcett's Jill Munroe role, and Redsilkshoes cracked me up with her all-Jessicas cast. But of course, there can only be one winner, and that lucky reader is Snickerdoodle, who struck a perfect balance between beauty, brains, and humor. To see her entry and a "new" cast photo, read more

Snickerdoodle's cast:
Kelly Garrett - Alyson Hannigan
Jill Munroe - Charlize Theron
Sabrina Duncan - Courteney Cox
