No other sitcom is as gleefully inventive as How I Met Your Mother. The basic setup is familiar stuff: Five charming, good-looking twentysomethings pal around New York City seeking love and happiness. But many episodes have a narrative trick. For example, when his friends try to persuade Ted (Josh Radnor) from going on a date with the doctor removing the butterfly tattoo he got while drunk, their justifications send the show careening back and forth among three interconnected flashbacks. Other episodes repeat scenes from different perspectives, or leap forward, or interrupt scenes to provide necessary exposition. None of this is groundbreaking, but it is consistently smart and clever--and when combined with crisp comic dialogue and zippy performances, it's pure sitcom delight. This is a show that manages to make a gang's in-jokes actually funny. Season Three is absolutely essential for any fan of the show, because this is the season we actually meet the title character; after two years of preamble, the mother to Ted's unnamed kids finally appears! But there are abundant other reasons to get this season, including Marshall (Jason Segel, Forgetting Sarah Marshall) and Lily (Alyson Hannigan, Buffy the Vampire Slayer) buying a crooked apartment, Barney (Neil Patrick Harris) getting the yips and getting slapped, and the return of Robin Sparkles, Canadian teenybopper alter-ego of Robin (Cobie Smulders). There's a wee bit of unfortunate stuntcasting (though she doesn't embarrass herself, Britney Spears still sticks out by dint of sheer inescapable celebrity), but it's a minor flaw in an all-around superb season. Add in an abundance of commentaries, featurettes, music videos, additional scenes, and How I Met Your Mother: Season Three is clearly a must-have for fans and a great introduction for newcomers. --Bret Fetzer

5 out of 5 stars Season 3 doesn't disappoint!   January 5, 2009

I was a little hesitant after reading some reviews that this season wasn't as funny as the first 2, but I'm glad I got it. Like the first two seasons, I watched it in a few days and laughed practically nonstop. How can you not smile with anticipation about "Slapsgiving"? Plus Neil Patrick Harris has never been funnier. Hopefully this has a long run left, it really is the best comedy on right now.


5 out of 5 stars HIMYM 3   January 2, 2009

HIMYM season three is a must haev for the HIMYM fan. the series continues to bring laughs in with the increadiblly funny past of Ted Mosby. all the main carracters from the first two seasons return and add a few new characters to the bunch. this season also contects back to some of the funnier episodes from the first two seasons. if you liked the first two seasons of HIMYM this is a must have for your collection. If you have never seen HIMYM then i would recomend you start at the begining with season one. alot of the great humor in this season is only funny if you have seen the previous episodes that it refrences.

Awesome series, worth the price for the three seasons and countig...Barney is probably the greatest character in it.
Legendaria, la mejor serie de comedia del ultimo tiempo, sugiero verla proque las tres temporadas lo valen, el subtitulaje en espanol no es optimo pero funciona

This seller never sent the product. I never heard back from them when I emailed. About 40 days after the purchase I finally got my money back.
