    I like the bit where ted screamed like a girl even though he said he could stand pain

    Ted is a fantastic human beeing

    This 2 minutes date is one of the most romantic thing ever. What an episode Funny from start to finish well constructed , very close from perfection.

    So good to see Eliott Reid Aka Stella and Britney . Love every part of that episode 9.25/10.

    Korny as hell

    Terrible acting, really lame jokes and this policor scent that lotsa shows in the zeros have. Only Barney makes it worth a glance.

    Sarah Chalke Overlooked!!

    Supreme episode; and not because of that totally non-memorable turn by whats-her-name. Its too bad that Sarah was overlooked; because she and Josh Radnor displayed a great chemistry in a totally believable story line. The date scene at the end was a supreme example of excellent writing; great direction; wonderful acting tight editing;and comic timing. It was Just totally believable and throughly well done; and worthy of multiple DVR replays! If Scrubs ever ends (and I don't want to see that happen) Sarah has a great continuing character to pick up and develop in this ever-improving comedy. Here's one hoping that Sarah is indeed the title "mother"! Advice to Britney: Keep your pants on; and stick to the gossip rags. Limited dance moves; minimal singing ability; even more limited and minimal singing ability; and limitless sub-teen appeal have no place in prime-time.

    • Trivia
      The lab coat worn by 'Stella Zinman' is owned by actress Sarah Chalke and was worn by her in Scrubs (2001). She reveals in the commentary for this episode that the pocket protector she wears with her lab coat covers the patch that says "Dr. Elliot Reid", her character on Scrubs.
    • Goofs
      After session 5 and before session 6, Ted states he only has 4 sessions left. In reality he has 5 sessions remaining.

      Ted Mosby: Hi. Ted Mosby her to see Dr. Zinman.

      Abby: I'll let her know.

      [She just sits there]

      Ted Mosby: Telepathically?

      Abby: [laughs] That's funny. That's funny, smart and great.
