How I Met Your Mother - Season Three

this item was purchased as a Christmas gift. it was received in a timely manner, was new and unopened as promised.

How I Met Your Mother season 3 starts off a little slow, but really picks up quick. Season 3 puts HIMYM in the upper echelon of comedy shows on tv right now because it is maintaining a high level of excellence without faltering like other popular shows such as the Office.

Though I could've done without the stunt casting of Britney, How I Met Your Mother Season 3 didn't disappoint! (Plus, since it came back post-strike there are more episodes than a lot of series, so more bang for your buck!) This series continues to be one of my favorites that I can watch over & over whenever I need a little pick me up! Highly recommend it!!

...it seems right to post this review at this time. Being a latecomer to HIMYM fandom, the coming of Season 3 on DVD was very exciting for me; I'd been finished with the first 2 seasons for months by the time it arrived! I think the show holds up well, overall, with the aforementioned "Slapsgiving" episode providing more laugh-out-loud moments for my husband and I than anything else in recent memory. The reappearance of Robin Sparkles, the follow-up/lingering question mark of the Ted's-30th-birthday-goat-in-the-bathroom story, and of course the oft-lauded 2-minute date sequence are season highlights. My only great disappointment was not feeling like we, the audience, got to know Stella enough to fall in love with her the way Ted did.

I thought that this dvd of season 3 was very well done, and I will be purchasing season 4 once it comes out!
