EW’s Ausiello Files just announced that in May, one of the last episode of this season’s of How I Met Your Mother, before the finale that is, is going to be a star-studded event, one that is sure to crack you up and leave you wanting more. Ted takes his date to see a play that his ex-fiancee’s (Stella) new husband wrote about their love-triangle last season. The stars that are playing the characters are all well-known actors and I’m definitely excited to see how everything will turn out. I’m sure there will be plenty of laughs, jokes, and jabs at Ted. Mark your calendars for May 17th!

In the May 17 installment, Ted takes a date — played by 2010’s go-to guest star Judy Greer (Modern Family last month, The Big Bang Theory next month) — to a showing of The Wedding Bride, which Tony penned about his love triangle with his rival and Stella. But it’s fair to say that the author’s take on the situation is… um, skewed.
How skewed?
The film’s protagonist, Tony, is played by Sex and the City Adonis Jason Lewis, and Stella, by Watchmen hottie Malin Akerman. Ted, renamed Jed Moseley in the flick within the sitcom, is, by contrast, portrayed as a jerk by none other than… The Middle’s Chris Kattan.

Hey everyone! As you can see there’s a new layout up, made by the fabulous Isi at Eclipse Designs. This one is featuring the very beautiful Eva Longoria since I’m a huge fan of Desperate Housewives. I have been EXTREMELY busy with school and personal issues I’ve barely had time to catch up on my shows! But I just got done my exams and will be catching up and updating as well.

Here’s a new Ask DH segment with Marc Cherry & Drea de Matteo. I just finished watching last week’s episode of Desperate Housewives and I thought it was okay. I like Julie Benz (the stripper) as an actress but I don’t know how far this new plot for Susan is going to go. It was amusing how MJ was so smitten with her though, asking her for hugs & baths, too cute. I thought it was hilarious when Tom & Lynette had their therapy sessions though, especially when they were making fun of how their therapist acted in that play. Their dynamic relationship is a personal interest to me because it kind of relates to my real life, not the therapy, but the husband-wife complex that they share. I don’t know if I even care enough about Angie’s secret (the main plot of the season), although Drea goes know how to play a scary, mean character.

Cougar Town, starring Courtney Cox, is definitely becoming a new favorite of mine. The writer/producer of Scrubs is the one who made it so it comes as no surprise. I really want Jules to end up with Grayson, I feel like they could be good together, but I don’t know how she’d react to him sleeping with her friend (Busy Philips). But I suppose the premise of the show is her adventures dating as a 40 year old and not about her settling down. I especially enjoyed last week’s episode when the guys went out bar-hopping and took those pictures, that montage was hilarious!

I also watched HIMYM, which was okay. I enjoyed Barney going on his many dates and it was humorously creepy that Marshall and Lily share the same toothbrush, but I feel like the show has lost its drive. Even though I know reveiling the “Mother” would basically end the show, it wouldn’t hurt to focus on Ted a little more. Barney is the funniest character of them all though. Plus, I think Lily is getting more annoying with each episode. I mean I adore Alyson Hannigan but her character, not so much.

On a more funny note, I absolutely LOVED last week’s episode of The Big Bang Theory. When Sheldon was in the ball pit I could not stop laughing! I swear he gets funnier with each episode. I just love when he says “BAZINGA”. When the show first started out I didn’t really like him, thought he was pretty annoying, but eventually I saw the comic relief to his character and I always crack up in his scenes.

I am getting very disappointed with The Secret Life of the American Teenager. Before, I used to love it but hate it yet still be able to watch it religiously. Now I want to watch it, but the constant repeat of words and phrases and how the show just drags on is getting to be too much for me. It’s like one character says a line and the other character repeats it and they go back and forth until the show ends. I honestly don’t know how much longer I’ll be watching this show.

Also, I’m super excited for this week’s episode of The Vampire Diaries. So in love with that show, it’s ridiculous. The guys are hot and the story line is very interesting. We just can’t get enough about vampires can we? Nina Dobrev is such a sweetheart, very pretty, and I like her playing Elena/Katherine. Paul Wesley as Stefan is so dreamy. I love their relationship together, it just makes me melt. Ian Somerhalder as Damon is quite delicious as well. He’s so dangerous, just what any girl would want. I’m not to thrilled about the new vampires, but it should all play out well. I think the writers/producers are doing a fantastic job so far, but I hate how they keep going on a hiatus after every few episodes, like they’re about to do after this week, such a tease!

Here’s some promo clips from this week’s episode along with some commentary from the creators.

Finally, I have been secretly, and now publicly, addicted to Grey’s Anatomy. I was able to catch up on all five seasons during my spare time and am ready to start watching Season 6. I used to think it was all about the drama, nothing medically related, but it’s not like that at all. And I actually enjoy the drama. I do love Mer & Derek’s relationship, although Meredith can be a bit annoying sometimes. I would have to say my favorite character is Cristina, even though she is a “robot”. I do miss T.R Knight’s character, O’Malley though, but the show must move on.

Here is a promo of this week’s episode for you all to enjoy!

Well that was a HUGE update, so I’m going to go watch more shows and play “Words with Friends” on my iTouch =)

I can’t wait to see the new season and hopefully who will play the Mother!

Ask Ausiello, a spoiler/fan questionnaire section of Entertainment Weekly, had a small blurb about the next season of How I Met Your Mother. Will we finally get to get to see the Mother?

Question: Do you have any information on Barney and Robin on the next season of How I Met Your Mother? –Lynn
Ausiello: Their relationship will be one of two major focal points of season 5, per exec producer Craig Thomas. “Barney’s feelings for Robin are out there, and it seems like Robin might have feelings for Barney herself,” he says. “And it’s so much fun to write for two people who are emotionally illiterate like the two of them are.” (For the record, the other major season 5 story is the Mother being one of Ted’s students.)
