Neil Patrick Harris Stares Down Doogie Howser Demons
Even without going to the stunt casting well, last night's How I Met Your Mother managed to rate. Take a gander at the throwback tag that reunited Neil Patrick Harris with the giant-cursored royal blue diary screen and plonky soundtrack that made him famous in the first place. After an episode in which Harris' Barney revisits all the schemes he's employed to get women into bed, he thoughtfully types the evening's lesson:
Sometimes we search for one thing but discover another. Even though I didn't find the mystery girl, I did find out something very important about myself...I'm awesome.
We'd wholeheartedly agree...if he had managed to get Wanda in as the random hottie beckoning Barney back to bed (Max Casella in drag would've also sufficed).
