How I Met Your Mother DVD Review

So Keith, an avid HIMYM fan, left a comment on one of the stories recently and pointed me to his site where he has a review of the HIMYM DVD with some amazing insights.  This is exactly what I love about blogging.  You get to share things with others that maybe you’ve thought about but didn’t know exactly how to put into words.   Which is exactly how I felt when reading “Tucker’s World: Not As Seen on TV.”  Keith gives a less than rave review of the recently release HIMYM Season 1 DVD set.  His biggest complaint is the fact that a lot of the cool and trendy music that seem to fit each episode perfectly were scratched from the DVD for some one reason or another.  I’ll let him explain.

“Anyway, much to my let down apperently they could not get the rights to a lot of the music used in the 1st season. Not to much of a big deal you might think,but the music is really a big part of the show, and carefully picked out by the writers. Heck the creators of the show are in a band. The show usually uses underated bands, cool covers, or bands that haven’t made it big yet. They also use other bands not usually played on the radio like Supergrass.”

Head over to “Tucker’s World” for his full write up.  There is a little more ‘professional’ review over on TVSquad, though I find Keith’s better.

  1. how i met your blog » Blog Archive » How CBS Missed it’s Big Chance Says:

    [...] Alan Sepinwall over on NJ.com makes an excellent observation. Alan writes about how CBS missed a big opportunity to showcase their big hit (HIMYM of course). CBS has announced that “Criminal Minds” would be getting the coveted post Super Bowl airing slot. I thought and hoped that they would have put HIMYM in that spot to attract more viewers, but they didn’t. I am so tired of cop shows, detective shows, lawyer shows, etc. Why not put your leading comedy show right after the Super Bowl? People will have been drinking having a good time watching the game (or I guess a bad one if your team loses) and will be in the mood to laugh, not get all serious with “Criminal Minds.” I’m no marketing major but even I know that people who are drunk are not going to want to watch a cop drama! Come on CBS, we seriously need to work out some kinks. First the stripping the good music from the DVD release, now this? [...]
