Summary: 2nd time around
Comment: Season 2 of this hilarious show is even funnier than the first. It seems that the cast overall are having an absolute blast doing this show. You can feel everytime you watch an episode (actually several) because i can never watch just one episode and leave it at that. All the cast bring something to the show. Whether it's the jokes at the right time or just being there for each other in times of crisis. This show represents what it's like to have people (friends) in your life that look out for and have each other back regardless of what stupid thing you might have done or said. Its an excellent second season to a show that out to be on anyone's radar that's into comedy.

With excellent actors/actresses, well written scripts and just an incredible energy throughout each episode. How I Met Your Mother is something that all should watch. It makes me feel good that there are shows out there that bring it each and every episode.

Can't wait until Season 3 of this comes out on DVD. I'll be there with a quickness snatching this one.

Enjoy.

Summary: A refreshing reminder
Comment: Somewhere I read that "How I Met Your Mother" was for the generation that grew up on "Friends" and that thing wass right. The two shows share a lot of similarities: Both are based in Manhattan Both are about relationships, friendships, and trying to find your way through your twenties. But "How I Met Your Mother" is just a refreshing twist on an age old plot line. It's so good I had to watch both seasons straight through. Don't get me wrong I still love "Friends" and it holds a dear place in my heart and on my shelf. But tucked next to those spaces is "How I Met Your Mother"

Summary: One of the best shows on TV right now !
Comment: How I Met Your Mother comes from a traditional branch of TV productions but somehow manages to bring something new and fresh. A good sitcom is good writing and good actors, and this one has it all.
The only disappointment is the packaging of the set: 3 DVD's in two slim packs, with a design that has a little touch of amateurism.
But at this price, I'm not complaining...

Summary: 4 thumbs up
Comment: 4 thumbs up- not quite as enjoyable as the first season, tho I have to admit the episode where Barney goes on The Price Is Right (aka TPIR) has got to be my fave episode ever!
A good watch, very enjoyable, still very funny. Looking forward to season 3.

Editorial Reviews:

The sweet, snarky charms of How I Met Your Mother are in full force on this clever sitcom's second season. The show's conceit is that it's all from the point of view of the future self of Ted Mosby (played in our time by Josh Radnor, voiced in the future by Bob Saget), telling his kids the story of how he met their mother--a character that, two seasons in, has yet to be introduced. Instead, the show revolves around Ted's romantic pursuit of Robin (Cobie Smulders) and the cozy relationship of Ted's best friends, Lily (Buffy the Vampire Slayer's beloved Alyson Hannigan) and Marshall (Jason Segel from another cult show, Freaks and Geeks). Careening through these two love stories is Barney (Neil Patrick Harris, the former Doogie Howser, M.D.), an aggressively single womanizer, whose intimate friendship with this largely sincere and domestic bunch doesn't make much sense...but often makes for excellent comedy. This goofy quintet of late 20somethings flounder their way through life in New York, wrestling with love and careers. When the first season ended, Ted and Robin had finally hooked up, but Marshall and Lily had suddenly split up. Season two runs with this, enriching the relationships among all the characters over the season's progress while spinning out all sorts of stand-alone plots that make each episode a treat. Examples: Ted discovers that his parents have been keeping a secret from him; Marshall, feeling burnt by love, starts doing couple things with a newly single male friend; Lily gets a job at Ted's office and is appalled by Ted's obnoxious boss; Robin tries to keep Ted from discovering her sordid past; and Barney...well, Barney is the gleeful source of a dozen cockeyed tales, ranging from asking Lily to paint a nude portrait of him to grappling poorly with his gay brother's sudden turn to monogamy to going on The Price is Right to find his father. The entire cast is superb (and much more confident this season), but Harris's inexplicably endearing smarminess really pushes the show into a higher comic bracket. That performance energy--combined with the cunning use of flashbacks and other twisty story techniques--makes How I Met Your Mother both sweet and spicy, a conventional sitcom that tweaks the formula enough to make it feel fresh and engaging. If the creators can keep this up, this show will become a classic. Season Two features an abundance of fan-pleasing extras, including cheerful commentaries, extended scenes, and a disturbing music video of the show's theme song. --Bret Fetzer
