The Top 10 Episodes Of How I Met Your Mother

Now that it's been a few weeks since the How I Met Your Mother finale aired, the dust has finally started to settle. It'll likely take quite some time before fans stop arguing about one of the most polarizing ends to a sitcom ever, but there's no changing the show now, so what we've got is what we've got. Instead of continuing to dwell on the finale, now is as good of a time as any to look back on the show as a whole. That's right, it's finally time to figure out which episodes of HIMYM are actually the best.

As a huge Lethal Weapon fan, I’m definitely a bit biased, but there’s no HIMYM episode that I’ve re-watched more than “Murtaugh” The episode’s core theme goes well with this tale of Ted’s life as he gets older: There are certain things that you’re eventually too old to do. With that in mind, Ted has formed a list of things that he, like Roger Murtaugh, is getting too old for.

The man-child Barney thinks that list is hogwash and insists that he’s able to do everything on it in one weekend. On the other hand, Ted believes if life is a meal, old age is the dessert. Watching Josh Radnor act like a cranky old man and yell at the neighborhood kids is as funny as watching Neil Patrick Harris with pink hair.

In addition to the Murtagh story line, Marshall takes on coaching Lily’s kindergarten basketball team. He doesn’t agree with her philosophy that participation matters more than winning, but eventually he gives in and tries to be cool with letting the kids have fun. Unfortunately, the other kindergarten team is all in their twenties and includes a teen wolf, so Lily’s class gets absolutely demolished.
