With an end to the writers’ strike almost nowhere to be found – the sides meet up again on Monday to renegotiate but who knows how long until out favorite shows (The Office, The Daily Show) can return with new material even if a deal is reached - I’ve taken to catching up on a series that I missed the first time around: How I Met Your Mother, likely one of the funniest shows on…well, on CBS, but who’s counting?* The actors do a remarkable job of bringing to life some very funny characters, and as I watch each new-to-me episode, I regret not watching when they originally aired. Does anyone have reccomendations for me to fill the void if the strike should go on?
*This has to be a terrible run-on sentence. Kate?
Hmmm. It’s long — but correct. I dig it.
If you have Netflix, you can watch NBC shows already on DVD for free on demand. If you haven’t gotten into 30 Rock yet, you should! That show is hilarious.
I also just completed the entire series of Queer as Folk. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful show.
