HIMYM tonight

[arabian]

I'm not really sure what I can put here that won't give away my feelings about tonight's episode, so just go behind the cut.

AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BARNEY AND ROBIN + MAKING OUT = AWESOME TO INFINITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was totally loving the BrOtp moments throughout the show, and then when everyone disappeared and it was just Robin in the final group scene at the bar (minus Barney), I knew (okay, was 99.9% sure and really, really hoped) that Barney would show up. And he did. And he was awesome, comforting her and saying she was the most awesome person he met (after the guy in the mirror, of course). And it was awesome. And the whole time I was watching it, I was thinking: 'Are we going to get some Barney/Robin action in this ep? Is it really gonna happen? Naw. Maybe. Nah. Possibly.' And then, and then, and then ....

Robin asked Barney to go back to her place and I did think 'OOH, OOH, OOH!!!' and then they were on the couch and I thought 'NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! they did it and it was awkward and we didn't even get to see ONE KISS!?!? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!' And then they started talking and I knew from the first sentence out of Barney's mouth that she was going to show him the video. And it was awesome.

And then when voice-over Ted began talking, I though, OHMYGOD! IT'S GONNA HAPPEN! and then, and then, and then ...

IT DID!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Barney and Robin were making out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can NOT wait until next week. Seriously. I may die in anticipation. OH. MY. GOD!!!!!!!!!!

Barney and Robin are CANON, baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Other than that ... well, "Let's Go to the Mall" was way better, and James Van Der Beek does still suck, and the whole revertigo thing was eh, but I don't care. It was all about the BrOtp for me.

And it was awesome.

AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG, I know!! As soon as Robin was alone in the bar, I was like, IT IS SOOOOO ON!

I was so afraid the last bit was going to be a fakeout. But it wasn't, and it was GLORIOUS!

It was NOT a fake-out. THEY WERE ACTUALLY MAKING OUT!!!!!!!! I am so dead, I can NOT believe they went there. They actually did. I knew it was leading up to it, I knew it, but I just couldn't believe it would actually happen and it did and it was PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BARBIN FOR THE WIN!!!!!!!!!

I had a feeling that's what happened when I read all the (*#*R%@OMGWTFBBQ! spoiler-cut posts, so I had to drag myself out of my bed to go watch it. :)

And it was worth it, was it not!??!

Ah, it's so awesome when a fandom goes unexpectedly, beautifully your way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BROTP FOR THE WIN!!!

It was so awesome...

The beek still sucks, but the sight of him and that hair is going to joing the troll crying face in my memory as perfect.

Barney and Robin kissed!! SO AWESOME!!!!!!!! Finally!!!

I thought they were going to tease us and that was it, so I was happily shocked!

Can't wait till next week!

I am dying until next week. SO AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! Ah, what will they do?!?! I want to check spoilers, but I don't, you know? Cuz this was such an unexpectedly awesome surprise!

[marikenobi.livejournal.com]

Oh I know!

I love spoilers, but a great surprise is awesome too!!

I just can't wait for more!!!!

Sunny, I don't know if you heard, but...DwtS! Apolo and Juli in a few weeks!

[arabian.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I know -- I don't know if they'll be dancing or not. I'm excited though, they're there for the 100th show!

[kansasspice.livejournal.com]

Well Tom said something along the lines of a never before seen routine, so....

[arabian.livejournal.com]

Oh, awesome. I didn't watch the show yet. Thanks for the heads-up!!!

[kansasspice.livejournal.com]

No problem. Don't take my word for it, but I'm pretty sure that's what's going to happen.

[harper47.livejournal.com]

Yes, me too. Apolo and Juliane, Maks and Mel and Mario and Karina was the impression I got.

[arabian.livejournal.com]

Yup, and I'm quite thrilled about that. Yippee!!!

[harper47.livejournal.com]

So I gather Mario is doing a number from Chorus Line and not dancing with Karina but still.

And this proves to me that the PTB really do know who the great couples are no matter what dumb reality show SL they try to shove down our throats. Apolo really was great with Juliane and Mel and Maks were spectacular.

(boy are Shannon and Derek getting roasted on TWOP right now. Everyone is pissed off about that confessional. For me, I know what's it like to feel frustrated and angry and just kind of go off before realizing -yikes. Everyone in America is hearing this so I cut them slack. I do agree with them that they are being underscored compared to others. Jason just does not deserve the free ride he is getting.

And everyone seems to forget about Marissa's little cryfest after Carrie Ann too. Everyone gets upset.)

[arabian.livejournal.com]

Yup, Julianne and Apolo and Maks and Mel were IT! As much as I loved Laila and Maks, it was really Laila that I loved so, Maks really hit his stride with Mel (and despite loving Julianne as I do, M/M REALLY should have won).

I'm shocked by the roasting of Shannon/Derek because I thought HE was spot-on and I expected people to be cheering what he said because it was SO FLIPPING TRUE!!!!!!!!!!! How dare he call the judges out on it?! Ugh, give me a break, people.

[harper47.livejournal.com]

Aw, I loved it. Every minute. I even loved Beek in it. I just can't stand how much I loved this.

[arabian.livejournal.com]

It was SOOOOO awesome. I don't know what's coming, BUT I have faith that the show will do the right thing and make it work.

[harper47.livejournal.com]

And I love your icon. Sigh. I must go get some at some point. Oh My God indeed.

[arabian.livejournal.com]

Indeed. So awesome!!

[kalaidascopeeye.livejournal.com]

I squeed. FOR HOURS AFTER THE FACT.

[arabian.livejournal.com]

Yuppers. You ain't the only one. :D
