Neil Patrick Harris returned to his roots on "How I Met Your Mother".....

First, can we say how happy we are that How I Met Your Mother is back so quickly after the strike being over? And on top of that, can we all be psyched that this year might be the one we really get to find out the “mother” is? Last night, the writers gave us dorky pop culture fans something we have been waiting for. Barney, played by Neil Patrick Harris is a womanizing jerk, who downloads us on the raunchy details of his exploits on his blog. This isn’t the first time the actor made a computer a supporting role in sitcom. The writers for “Mother” finally reminded us of some very fun theme music and a time in the 80’s when a kid genius could be a doctor and more worried about his friends. This is not as good as breaking the third wall or anything, but for those of us who grew up on Doogie Howser and remember the first blog, this is truly amazing!!!!
