I'm sorry not to see Arrow on the list. It's most likely not highbrow enough to make the top ten, but considering how fantastic it's second season was, I thought that it had elevated itself enough to see it here. (I suppose it could be that the slowness of the third season to get out of the gate dragged it out of the

Anyone who's ever had experience coaching a junior sports team of any kind, would fully be able to appreciate how funny and apt the Sue and Mike storyline is. (Though in general, I think the parents are worse than the kids.)

I don't believe that the fact that Ted gets together with Robin after the finale invalidates the last 9 years. It would be different maybe if Robin and Ted had never had a go at a relationship, but they were together for a year and they couldn't make it work. If Tracy had not died, I've no doubt that Ted and Tracy

I think when he said that she "would never be a pole vaulter" that was being very explicit, considering future Ted knows exactly what Robin was actually upset about. And the thing about never being alone is also pretty unambiguous, it refers to her always having friends surrounding her (and her future husband).

I think that it would be almost impossible to find a fanbase that is less divided when it comes to Knightly. He comes as close as you can possibly go to being universally beloved (or at least liked.)

I was 99% sure the female attendant was an assassin. It wouldn't be the first time that stunt was pulled.on PoI. To me it just seemed super obvious, she was so helpful and she was so unusually understanding of Reece taking down people. I kept on internally screaming at Reece "What did you just do? Do NOT tell the

I agree that they totally dumbed down and Flanderised Penny's character and that Leonard could have certainly been more tactful with Penny. However I disagree that he did the wrong thing by saying no to Penny's proposal. We know Penny still has issues with commitment, (not too long ago she panicked at the idea of just

Marshall and Lily weren't rolling their eyes when Ted said he was an expert at giving wedding gifts. It was a reference to one of the episodes earlier in the season where Marshall and Lily were sore that Ted never gave them a wedding present and Ted was sore that Marshall and Lily never said a thank you card. It's

It kind of annoys me when people are constantly giving out about "filler" episodes which don't advance the plot. I can totally understand that feeling in an action or drama where the plot is the main draw. But HIMYM is a sitcom, in most of them you'll only get a couple of significant plot developments in the season.

Yet another way that you can see the quality of this show is through how compelling Zuko's character is. He's a character that is not traditionally likable in any way. He's not funny or charismatic, he's whiny, he's entitled, he's always aggressive and hostile, while he's smart he makes many stupid decisions and while
