I can't believe this season is better than the previous one! I thought the first season of how i met your mother was great and flawless, yet, this season is even more hilarious, more dramatic and more story-rich than its predecessor.

The best part of this whole season is, without a doubt, Barney Stinson. He was at the center of some of the season's funniest moments like: the “Slap Bet”, when everybody started calling him Swarley, or the time he had a “relationship” with Lily. At the same time, he was the author of the season's most heartwarming moments like his encounter with his “father”, and when we discover the real reason for Lily's return to New York.  I love how he has taken a more central role; his personality has been evolving and every few episodes we see a new layer of him.

This series has something that I had never seen before on TV or movies, and love: the ability to revisit old stories and develop them. On the pilot episode of this series Ted said that he was present during Marshall and Lily's first time. He said that he was on the top bunker, and that was that. More than a season later, we revisit that story and what Ted said is put into context. Many instances of this phenomenon occurred during the season and every time I was left happily impressed. 

how i met your mother has given us two unbelievably amazing seasons in a row. Let’s see if it continues to deliver.
