Report: HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER Cast Signs on For 9th Season:

So. I have mixed feelings. And until it’s 100% confirmed, they will stay mixed.

I’m still unsure about this, too.

Well, if the last season is gonna be about “How I Met Your Father” and told from the mother’s POV, looking back at tall the years, I’m definitely on board. Otherwise I’m still unsure….

EDIT: NEWS UPDATE for all HIMYM fans - there is still no officially official news about a renewal!!!!

EDIT 2: NEW UPDATE: IT’S NOW OFFICIAL!

first even if you say she's not a possession, pu property on Robin is so wrong! Any human is property to anyone, and no Robin is not HIS for Barney or Ted, I don't care! And since when Barney’s heart has always belong to Robin since they met? sinc ethey met? Are you kidding me??? Hate when shippers are so blind to not see or invent some things! Buy yes Robin's heart belongs to barney since a moment now (first love : Ted, big love : Barney)

Thank you for your opinion.

You have your opinion, I have mine.

I actually do think that in a way Barney fell for Robin the moment he met her in that bar all those years ago. But if you wish to hear what I think is the defining moment - when he really knew, then in my opinion that’s the moment when he rips the list of the 200 women at the end of season 4 and looks at Robin, who then smiles back at him.

You may not know this, but English is not my main language, so sometimes I find it hard to find a really good way to say what I mean. (and no, sometimes google and dictionaries don’t help - they translate words, not ideas) You could have given me advice what word/words to use instead of “property”. But instead you chose not to do that. So I cannot find your message helpful sadly.

Once more… with “property” I mean that her heart belongs to Barney. Barney has a hold on her heart, and that makes every other mans attempt to win it futile. So what if that word is not the correct one or politically correct to express the idea, I chose to use it. But in a way it can be said that “she belongs to him” as in ” her heart belongs to him” (which doesn’t mean that he owns her heart literally…having it in his apartment stuck in some glass jar. No. It’s more figurative.

Also…since you actually did understand my point (Ted - her first love when thinking of those two, and Barney - her big and final love), I don’t think I didn’t get my message through using the words I did. Because it seems like I did.

I am not saying I’m right, but I though I was being funny and amusing. If I over-did it, my bad. But that’s just what my sense of humour is like. I can do nothing about the fact that you don’t get the humour. Not everyone finds the same things funny, and appreciates the same type of jokes.

But thank you for your message anyway. Your opinion is noted.

Now let’s all go back and watch the show for the reasons we want to watch it.

btw, doesn’t the URL (thetieisrobin) give you some clue as to what this blog is about? A Barney and Robin shipping blog. Of course you’ll find shipper stuff in here! Why would you expect anything different from a blog that is clearly about one particular ship? Now that’s what I don’t understand.

Also.. even though it is not legal in most places, and is frowned upon in western culture, there are places on Earth, where one person is basically the property of another. And usually it’s women (wife) being the property of men (husband). Yes, cultures still exist that view a woman as the humble servant of the man. Also..in many ways child labour and low-paid workers in third-world countries could be viewed as the possessions of their employers. It sometimes is very close to that. So the statement that no human being is a possession to another, is kind of incorrect. Even though it should be correct. Things like that should not happen. Should not exist in the world. But sadly they do.

That is all I wanted to say.

oh, one more thing - if you celebrate any holidays (Christmas, Hannukah…), I wish you’ll have HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

HIMYM return of the question

Fri, 14 Dec 2012 19:59:34 +0000

SPOILER ALERT

The right answer is - none of the above. It’s string quartet.

Or at least that’s my guess.

So…. there’s gonna be an episode titled “Band of DJ”

That is so obviously a wedding connected question. And it’s already been asked. By Ted. From Robin. Her reply was - string quartet.

Robin’s dream wedding - HIMYM 2x09 Slap Bet

Ted: What month did you get married?

Robin: June. We had a June wedding.

Ted: Aah… Canada in June. That’s the dream.

Ted: Sit-down or Buffet?

Robin: Um…

Ted: Wow… It’s weird that you don’t remember.

Robin: No. I just didn’t know how to answer, because we did butlered hors deouvres in the atrium, but the actual dinner was a Buffet in the Food Court, feauturing a filet mignon or roasted potato-crusted salmon with a lobster scallion ber blanc.

Ted: Hmm…

Ted: Band or DJ?

Robin: String quartet… played at the ceremony. But for the actual reception we had a 7-piece band. We paid extra for the sax, ‘cause I just love that smooth alto sound.

Ted: How many bridesmaids?

Robin: Seven.

Ted: Flowers?

Robin: Azaleas.

Ted: Colour scheme?

Robin: Dusty rose and Sienna.

Ted: Husband’s name?

Robin: Um…

Ted: You were never married.

Robin: Yes I was.

Ted: No you weren’t.

Robin: How do you know?

Ted: I looked it up at the library.

Robin: What library?

Ted: You are driving me crazy! No wonder your fake husband moved to Hong Kong!

Robin: He moved there for BUSINESS!

HIMYM | PROPERTY OF… HIMYM 8x10 screencaps SPOILER ALERT!...

Fri, 14 Dec 2012 11:57:58 +0000

HIMYM | PROPERTY OF…

HIMYM 8x10 screencaps

SPOILER ALERT! MY THOUGHTS:

I believe there was some symbolism in everything in Barney’s apartment being Ted’s. Things that had been Ted’s had become Barney’s. Robin was also in Barney’s apartment during the episode. She, too, had been Ted’s first. And only after that Barney’s (and I do not mean like she was anyone’s possession, I am just using this word to illustrate what I mean) But unlike all the other things, which Barney had borrowed from Ted, and never returned, Robin is not one of those “things”. And Ted has/had to let her go, because she is not his. Whether we want to accept it or not, it’s quite clear that just like Barney’s heart has always belong to Robin since they met, Robin’s heart has also belonged to Barney for the longest time now. Sounds like a romantic clichee, yes. But it’s a TV comedy after all!

Also, nice touch on the continuity elements. Rose petals and candles… from 7x10 to 8x12

HIMYM | THE PLAYBOOK The Playbook by Barney Stinson has...

Fri, 14 Dec 2012 11:39:18 +0000

HIMYM | THE PLAYBOOK

The Playbook by Barney Stinson has certainly evolved since it was last seen.

SPOILER ALERT! MY THEORY ABOUT 8x11 & 8x12

When The Playbook was introduced in 5x08, Barney described it this way - “It’s kinda big. Surprisingly heavy. Kinda leathery. And it’s black.” And it was. But over time it has both grown in size, and also changed colour. Because in 8x10 it was bigger in size (cover size, and number of pages) and had brown leather covers.

Also, in 5x08 Marshall said that he has gone through the whole Playbook basically, and he had no idea of a play called “The Scuba diver , which turned out to be the very last play in the book at that time. But seems Barney has added some plays after that. Including the now FINAL PAGES and LAST PLAY’S ever - “The Robin” and “The I Hope She Says “YES”” Which are both part of his final, big challenge, and play to get Robin.

Most likely Barney (or/and the rest of the group) will convince Robin that Barney’s gonna propose to Patrice. That will make Robin to take action. If she ever wants to be with Barney. Because if she doesn’t she will lose him forever. So my theory is that Robin thinks Barney is actually serious with Patrice (even though Robin’s initial suspicion that it’s not real, is actually correct, and it’s all part of the big plan) and thinks he’s gonna propose to her. Which will make her realize she loves Barney, and wants him back. So she thinks she’s going to go and stop him from proposing to someone else. Which means she has to be ready to admit why she doesn’t want him to do that. (yes, this is over-used scenario in fiction, but…oh, well…) And that is how they get back together. She admit she loves him. He proposes to HER, not anyone else. And… somewhere down the road…is the wedding day.

Well, now we finally can see the pictures from the beautiful HIMYM: Barney & Robin (Neil & Cobie) in Italy photoshoot in the magazine. The new issue of the CBS Watch Magazine.

NPH-FAN community has the magazine scans (interview, and photos) on their page.

My thought on the latest BrOTP related spoiler:

Sun, 21 Oct 2012 08:56:32 +0100

There are only two people/names I can think of…

…who have really “pissed off” Robin Scherbatsky. That is 2 females I can think of:

BECKY (boats! boats! boats!)
PATRICE (nobody asked you)

THIS WAS THE SPOILER:

Sophia: Now that Quinn is gone, when will Barney and Robin finally get together? #HIMYM
Based on this photo (below) from the Nov. 5 episode, it looks like they are right on the cusp of couplehood, right? Not so fast. Barney will start a relationship soon after, and it’s with someone we’ve met in the past. Not only that, it’s someone who has pissed off Robin in the past. Cue the HIMYMfireworks!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

HIMYM | Details #1

HIMYM 8x01 Farhampton

I would really love to know what else is in the box. I hope one day we will learn about every item in the box of memories.

I can spot something Canadian - flag or something like that (white/red), a disciplinary warning paper, and some sort of a list or letter (on the yellow notepad)

Is that… It cannot be the letter to the International Olympic Canadian Department of Olympics, cause that had longer sentences. But I hope that letter is also there. Along with all the other important items. And I really hope Robin either did look at every item in the box, Or will look at every item in the box in the near future.

What’s in the box? What is in the box?
