An outstanding and sexy return to form after the alarming lameness of the previous episode!
In fact, the track record of How I Met Your Mother is so strong that one should probably look at the lame episodes as a sort of breather, a chance to catch your breath between the dizzying heights of the usual installments.
Tonight we had a mini Freak and Geeks reunion with Busy Philipps showing up as Rachel, playing off a leggy Danica McKellar making a welcome return after last season’s “The Pineapple Incident.” It’s always a pleasure to see Busy; she remains one of the sexiest girls on TV whilst always seeming approachable, even when the characters she’s playing aren’t. She deserves to be a much bigger star, and the only disappointment in her appearance was that we didn’t get to see her and Jason Segel interact. That would have been special.
