We’re fairly certain that you are familiar with the American sitcom How I Met Your Mother – after all, it is on E4. Unfortunately, this means that the show is constantly forced into your eye-holes to the point where you are repulsed even by the sight of your own mother.
If you’re not up to speed, then let us enlighten your Friday afternoon. HIMYM, apart from its incongruous title, is a rather excellent show about a man named Ted (Josh Radner), who is explaining to his future children how he met their mother. Instead of just jabbering on for a few minutes and cutting to the chase, he talks about his churlish escapades with his friends Robin (Cobie Smulders), Marshall (Jason Segal), Barney (Neil Patrick Harris) and Lily (Alyson Hannigan).
So fear not children of the UK, for you are tied down to vicious TV scheduling no longer, as season 3 of the show is out on DVD now. Oh, and look, we’ve only gone and got an exclusive clip for you, you lucky things. It’s Josh Radner (Ted) talking about his favourite episode of the show. Check it out after the jump…

Glee! If you’re one type of person, it’s ohmigodsqueeawesome validation for your inner Barbara Streisand, secretly memorised High School Musical dance routines and total lack of self-respect to come pirouetting out of the closet.
Or it’s that unbearable jazz-hands crap your partner makes you watch.
Anyway, hold onto your earplugs (sane people) and your pants (ladies), and buy Journey‘s back catalogue wholesale (karaoke establishments), because the Glee torture/ecstasy is set to continue. How I Met Your Mother‘s Neil Patrick Harris is joining the cast, and it looks like he’s bringing a bunch of celebrities with him.

So it seems that Britney Spears really is going to appear in How I Met Your Mother again – which is great news for everyone except Neil Patrick Harris.
That’s because, after last time Britney Spears was on How I Met Your Mother, her co-star Neil Patrick Harris told everyone that it was just a stupid piece of stunt-casting that made everyone look silly, although he now claims that his statements were taken out of context.
And now that it’s all but official that Britney Spears will make a second appearance on the show, Neil Patrick Harris has made his point of view absolutely clear – he’d be thrilled to have Britney Spears back on How I Met Your Mother, because ethically-dubious stunt-casting is the only thing keeping the poxy show afloat at the moment. We’re paraphrasing slightly.

Neil Patrick Harris has responded to yesterday’s Associated Press article which suggested he would like Britney Spears banned from the set of How I Met Your Mother by saying what he meant to say was that Britney is welcome back anytime!
That’s a bit strange, isn’t it? Why on one day (yesterday) would someone say: “I’m in the minority that our show does not need stunt casting in order to succeedâ€, and then one day later (today) say: “As I have said all along, Britney did a great job on the show. She really did. In fact, we are all hoping that she returns rather soon to reprise her role as Abbyâ€?
What could have happened to change Neil’s mind so drastically in such a short space of time? Hmmm…

If CBS had its way then How I Met Your Mother would become the Britney Spears Laffs & Distressing Outburst Hour.
But How I Met Your Mother‘s Neil Patrick Harris isn’t having any of it. He’s decided to speak out about the idea of making Britney Spears a How I Met Your Mother regular, because growing an audience naturally is much better than shocking viewers into watching by parading unwell megastars around in front of them every week.
Hear hear Neil Patrick Harris – finally, someone with the balls to speak out against this increasing over-reliance on chasing ratings through cheat stunt casting. Mediocre sitcoms that people only really watch because they’re lazy and nothing else is on, you now have your champion.
