Critic Reviews for How I Met Your Mother: Season 1
All Critics (14) | Top Critics (9) | Fresh (8) | Rotten (6)
I just don't get it. Sure, Neil Patrick Doogie's character was amusing, and the rest of the cast is pretty decent, but it just felt like a weak standard-fare sitcom with punch lines that were either obvious or not that funny.
The Mother pilot has a surprise twist that may ultimately be the show's downfall, but the cast is so immensely likeable, they should be able to overcome any viewer disappointment with sheer charm.
The strength of this very witty comedy is the chemistry between the five main characters.
The comedy that does occur in How I Met Your Mother isn't enough to compensate for its inconsistencies.
How I Met Your Mother feels more like a skit in an acting class than the big time.
The jokes on Mother don't feel forced, and the romance that Ted pursues with a woman he meets at a bar has a goofy sweetness to it.
