So far this season has been so much better than the last. Looking forward to tonight's episode. I wish this show would get a set end-date though so they could figure out the timing and have a good resolution.

Nice to see the "not before my coffee" guy is getting work.

OK episode, but a little too Ted heavy.

I don't think you need to spoiler that. I didn't take Ted saying "I wondered if I'd see her again" and then saying "Yes, I would" or whatever it was as indicating she ends up being the mother. He wondered, then she showed up at his house to picket him and throw eggs, and that probably wasn't going to be the only time she did it.

Plus, I think his future wife was in the one class he accidentally taught the one day might also be what's her name's roommate.

Does anyone even care who the mother is anymore? They have dragged it out and teased it so much that I have completely lost interest.

Some good moments, but Ted-centric episodes are always the weakest, IMO.

I don't really care who she is, but I do care that we find out who she is before the show is over.

Pretty weak episode last night. I got the biggest chuckle during the locker room scene at the very end (not saying much).

I thought that it was one of the best episodes in quite a long time.

But why? She's likely not a character we've even seen thus far. The show is called How I Met Your Mother. It's about the journey, not the destination. I think it would be a mistake to introduce the mother prior to the series finale.

You're just banging your head against a wall.

Loved all the uncomfortable moments with Marshall.

Sad to say, I'd actually be delighted if I found out that a good-looking buddy of mine had a small penis.

Glad to see even they have the random dude who just likes hanging brain in the locker room to make everyone else get dressed and get out of there as fast as they can.

It's true. Every locker room in America has one of them.

My wife said, "I think it's obvious. She likes to stick her finger up boys' tootie holes."
