Why 'How I Met Your Mother' Is Your Next Binge Show
Silly Punter

In this day and age, almost everyone will at some point binge watch tv shows. There is one show that stands out and I will watch over and over again: How I Met Your Mother. Regardless of your streaming service of choice, here are eight reasons you should give it a try:

1. We can all relate with the characters

Each character goes through their own trials and tribulations. The different situations are similar to what we would experience. Anyone can find a character in this show that they identify with. You fall in love with the characters and when they experience their hard times you can't help but feel sorry for them.

2. We can find comfort in dealing with real life situations

The show deals with the tough situations in life that everybody hates. The show bounces between death, job loss, and a variety of other real life issues.

3. The Inside jokes are terrific

There are a number of inside jokes, like I am sure you have with your friends. You get to understand them because the way the stories are told you are essentially one of them.

4. There is always something to high five about

Especially when you can go from one season right to the next, and don't have to wait for it to air on TV.

5. The content of the show is cleaner than most television shows today

The show does attract teenagers to young adults, but the producers are clever in finding ways to cover up.

6. You can learn some life lessons

Some of the lessons that are expressed and learned are reached through extreme examples or stories, but it helps get the point across.

7. You get to learn from the modern day Romeo and Juliet, the one and only Lilly and Marshal


Lily and Marshal are together from the beginning. They exemplify real life issues married couples have to handle, and you see how both of them love each other more and more every day.

8. In our generation, no show makes us more thankful for our friends

These five are the best of friends. They support each other in everything that happens. We see how they all go through different things but their friends are always there no matter what. This shows that our friends are always there for us and it makes us more and more thankful for them every day.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
