Woohoo!! Looks like the Class may be the one leaving, with renewals for HIMYM, Christine, and Rules of Engagement (I don't mind that show). But woohoo for HIMYM!!! AWESOME!

Hmmmm....

I hope this news turn out to be true because if it is it'll be...wait for it...legendary!!!

Bar

Woot!!!

I'm guilty of not watching the show on broadcast, but I've fallen in love with it via the DVDs... I'll have to Tivo season three, until I can catch up through the DVs

Thats funny I just popped in these dvds even though I just watched them a month ago.

That's freakin' hilarious!

I really hope this is true, as HIMYM is a great show that deserves more attention. Perhaps we'll finally meet the mother next season. And I'm delighted that Old Christine may make it as well, which I really wasn't expecting.

Well I don't like How i met your mother but I'm glad its being renewed for people that like the show, Glad to see New/Christine will probally get renewed because in my opinion after the King of Queens ends its 9 season run, it will be the only good comedy on CBS next to CSI: Miami.

I can't stand new adventures. Evey interview I've seen and everything she has been in since Seinfeld she has not been funny. I actually cringe when I see her now. I want to like her but I can't.

Great news. HIMYM is one of the current favorite shows. But I suppose that I would have been just as glad to see that Barney get transferred to another show since he makes the show for me.

That's disappointing about The Class because it got a lot better the 2nd half of the season.

IF Robin doesn't end up being Ted's wife, don't you think the show has gone away from it's original premise ? Not saying that's a bad thing, but the show may need renaming.

No, actually. In the pilot episode, where Ted first meets and falls in love with Robin, he ends the episode by telling the kids "And that's how I met your AUNT Robin" (Aunt being used more in a "best friend who acts as an aunt" then any familiar relation I think). They made clear from the very start that Robin was not Ted's wife.

In fact, if the show ends up just leading up to Ted *meeting* his future wife (and not actually showing the courtship, ect.) that would live up to the show's title, even though it may annoy longtime fans looking for more.

That's all very true and the creators still maintain that Robin isn't the mother.

However, I think it would be hilarious if it was all a ruse and Ted just wanted to get his kids to listen to all the awesome stories of his life. I'm past really caring about "the mystery" of the mother and just enjoy the show for what it is.

I can take or leave HIMYM and I can't stand Christine, but I am glad about Rules of Engagement. That show picked up steam from week to week and ended up being one of the better sitcoms on tv (after the Thursday night NBC stuff, which are a little higher-level than traditional sitcoms). I don't think any of these three renewed shows touches King of Queens in its prime though.

I only clicked on this thread to find out what the hell "HIMYM" stands for.

HIMYM = His Infernal Majesty You Moron

This is exactly what I thought should happen as well. I bet "Aunt Robin" is all a ruse.

TK

It's a possibility that, while the Robin we know is the mother, they actually have a seperate woman named Robin whom they know, and refer to as "Aunt Robin."

A bit of a stretch, perhaps, but still...

yeah, i have always had a problem with the whole 'robin isn't the mother' thing. it just doesn't seem practical to start a series with a female lead knowing that in a season or two you will have to get rid of her because she isn't the mother.

Is this a late night CBS show? I'm not familiar with it at all.

At least they gave up on the concept of the dad and kids beginning/ending each episode early on. They still run with it as if he's telling a story, but really why would a guy want to tell his kids about his (sometimes sexual) exploits with someone that he asserts is now their "aunt robin?" I'm sure mom is really pleased about that.
