Glad I watched is live when I was considering not. Normally Marshall-Lily episodes are boring for me, but there wasn't much else on.
This wouldn't have been a good episode to read about before seeing it because there wouldn't have been such a punch. Interesting to see the countdown...I was switching back between HIMYM and House, so I missed much of the countdown (I saw numbers, but didn't put it together); but I caught on at 10.
I've been disappointed that the show has strayed from the mother arc, but this was just a great episode. Balanced the 'real-life' Marshall-Lily stuff with Barney's humor; Robin Sparkles is always good, and Ted was good as support for her...then BAM. Good stuff.
