Reminiscent of The Burning Beekeeper from last season, this week’s episode tells a story from several points-of-view: that of Ted‘s, Robins, and then Lily‘s – all of which tell the story a little differently than before.

This week on How I Met Your Mother, we got to see another episode that seems perfectly designed to reminds us all why we fell in love with the show to begin with. Of course, this reminder couldn’t come at a better time, now that we know they’ve officially been given a 9th [and supposedly "final" - but then again, the 8th was also supposed to be the "final"] season. “P.S.

This week brought back many of the classic gags: Ted’s red cowboy boots, the Intervention banner, the Playbook AND Bro-Code, and more that I can’t even think of right now because I’m reveling in...
