HIMYM: HD 2.0

I had a dreadful realization the other day.

There's few shows on TV that I actually enjoy watching: the original CSI, the BBC's Life On Mars (limited to only two seasons), Battlestar Galactica (in bursts), Bones, and How I Met Your Mother.

I've talked to a few of our friends, and those that actually watch TV also like How I Met Your Mother.

And this was the realization: it's Happy Days for our generation.

When I was a kid, Happy Days was the show to watch every week. My parents sat us down, and it was generally ok, though they would laugh at times which we didn't quite get. They certainly seemed to enjoy it much as I like HIMYM.
