To help Robin make up her mind, Ted feels like he has to produce an act of God... with a little help from one of Barney's old girlfriends who would rather see Barney dead than help him. Meanwhile, Marshall finds out that Lily applied for a summer long art fellowship in San Francisco when he listens to a voice message left on their answering machine that offers her the position. As the two argue over what it means for their relationship and their upcoming wedding, neither has the heart to finish the argument for fear of ... Written by Huggo

Trivia

One member of the orchestra is complaining that the pizza Ted promised is not going to happen. He may be right: Ted is so much preoccupied with Robin and the rain quest that he probably forgot all about the pizzas. See more »

Goofs

Penelope mentions having slept with Barney twice in the back of his car, but in "Arrivederci, Fiero" it is revealed that Barney doesn't own a car and in fact cannot even drive. However, Barney often lies to women and could easily have told her that some random car was actually his. They slept in the car; she never said that he drove it. See more »

Quotes

Robin Scherbatsky: [Yelling from the window] My camping trip got rained out!
Ted Mosby: I know, I'm sorry.
Robin Scherbatsky: It's not your fault.
Ted Mosby: Yeah, it is. Come down here.
Robin Scherbatsky: But it's pouring! You come up!
Ted Mosby: No, you have to come down here!
Robin Scherbatsky: Why?
Ted Mosby: Why? Because I MADE IT RAIN! That's what I did today! And that's enough! I... I've done my part, now get down here!

Superb Television
23 March 2010 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

I have watched an incredible amount of TV in the last decade, ranging from the Wire to Friends, from the Sopranos to The Office. I've seen the good, the bad, and the ugly. After I was finished with Friends a couple of months ago, I decided to pick up the first few seasons of this show because of Jason Segal. I was hooked pretty instantly, the characters were intriguing, the plot looked promising, and the comedy was fresh.

As the first season carried on, I became interested in Ted's story. Rather than your average sitcom, it became a matter of wanting each new episode as well as enjoying the one that you were watching now. Before I knew it, I had hit the Season 1 finale: "Come On". As most sitcoms go, I expected to be unfulfilled with a needless cliffhanger, but instead I got something completely foreign to comedy TV (with the exception of "Casino Night" from The Office). HIMYM has brought the joys that I hoped it would, but it has never quite returned to the peak of the Season One finale.
