How I Met Your Mother - "The Stinsons" - 3/02/09
Fun episode but they really need to end the teases about Robin and Barney.
Liked Barney's line about child actors in the 80's

If this was the first episode I had ever watched, I would have turned it off after 5 minutes. It just seemed really awkward and not the high quality this show usually is. Even the laugh track seemed especially more obnoxious.
I think they may have been trying to spoof a typical family-oriented sitcom, but it just didn't work for me.

I though the best line was Marshall's comment about Barney's race car bed.
"It handles great by the way"

I really hated the stupid premise of Barney having actors portray his family for his mother.
Funniest line was when the kid mentioned dinosaur bones coming alive in a museum, and Marshall said, "Oh thanks kid, I didn't need to sleep tonight."

Is How I MET Your Mother so difficult to understand? For the life of me I can't understand why these TV gossip types are so obsessed with implying that each and every upcoming female guest star could be the mother.

By definition (show title), the show would end with them meeting. We cannot actually see the courtship because it's not How I Dated Your Mother, right?
