Can't wait for the episode!

As much as I love the idea of Robin and Ted getting together, even with the whole 'friends with benefits', I'm afraid this is going to last only one episode and that will be it.

I know! I am excited about it but a little scared at how it will turn out.

But yay for new episodes even though this one does have all those annoying "famousforabsolutelynobloodyreason" people in it.

Me too, which is why I'm trying not to get too excited.

OMG!!! Barney said "I love you" to Robin!!!

This episode was fantastic. Yes, the Ted/Robin re-hash was annoying, but talk about a BrOTP payoff.

Barney breaking the TV's And then buying the one just to break it. And buying all the milk and the new dishwasher... and the stamps!

Aws-ful... Afsume! Genius!

The celeb-retards didn't even need to be in the episode, IMO. But, I'm glad they were re-duced to talking magazine covers. And I found the term "reading a magazine" amusing, just as clever as "eating a sandwich"

Private Matter And Robin saying not to be a Ted when Lily corrected her. I love how the show is the king of continuity!

Barney at Lily's class - And Lily breaking the news about the kid's parents divorcing

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwww...

This episode is definitely my favorite one this season and it's very close overall to Sandcastles in the Sand for me, which says a LOT! Seeing Barney finally admit his love for Robin to Ted was priceless. Loved how Ted reacted, he's a true friend, seeing that Barney has true and deep feelings. I can't wait to see what the rest of the season has in store for us... and I'll go gush about it in the B/R thread now

I really like the way they used the celebrity cameos! It was well done and funny and not annoying as I tought it would be.

This episode was awesome!

Marshall's story was a bit boring but Jason Segel is funny no matter what. I love that Barney had a private bathroom all along

The Ted/Robin/Barney stuff was amazing though!

Barney saying "I love you" to Robin out loud but her not catching on was pure gold. NPH was awesome in that scene and Cobie played obvlivious so well.

And I love that Ted knows about Barney's feelings now! D

Great episode!

I love that Ted knows about Barneys feelings as well. And it came out in a great way and he handled it well. Shoot he cut it off with Robin because of Barney.

Neil was fantastic in this episode. Him breaking tvs and then going to the apratment to clean it up so there would be no more "fighting" and buying "10,000 stamps" He was great in the episode. The confessing of his love at the bar and then at ted and robins was great as well. I like that now Lily and Ted know. Pretty soon we all know Robin will find out.

The bathroom in barneys office was priceless. This who time Marshel has been worried about " the mag" and hre barney has had a private one. LOL.

Ohhh man, I feel a little like crying for Barney right this moment.
I am so happy Ted finally found out about Barney's feelings for Robin though, and he wasn't even upset! I was plesantly amazed! ^_^
Marshall's story was boring and somewhat gross at times but I guess some people probably find that kind of thing funny.
I loved the scene when Barney showed up in Lily's kindergarden class during feeling sharing that was hilarious.
Plus, the smashing of the TV's after buying brand new ones was funny as well. ^_^
This was a pretty good episode to me, they handled Robin and Ted having sex better than I thought they could. ^__^
So I was touched by some angst coming from Barney's end but overall it was still great plot and really funny. =D
