How I Met Your Friends

How I Met Your Friends

By Julie & Kathleen

We're Julie and Kathleen and we have a (possibly unhealthy?) love for FRIENDS and How I Met Your Mother (aka HIMYM). In all our crazy chats, we’ve picked apart similarities among the characters and plots, but rather than diminishing our obsession, we’ve only come to love the shows even more. We’re here to dig into plot lines and theories and obsess over guest stars, crossovers, and catch phrases. Come chat with us on Twitter @himyfriendspod, Instagram @howimetyourfriendspod, or howimetyourfriendspod@gmail.com!

Season 3, Episode 4: What's Your "But"?

What's his "but"?
What do you mean?
When someone wants to set you up, they always tell your their good qualities first, but then they leave our their huge flaw.

So, what's your "but"? Share them with us on social media or email!

Lily sets up Robin on a date with a parent of one of her students; Barney and Ted compete for a girl; and Marshall proves he's got game (WAS THERE ANY DOUBT?!).

Chandler wants to move forward with Janice but makes it worse; Phoebe tries to help Joey score some work; and Ross plays into terrible stereotypes about boys and dolls.
