How I Met Your Father (2022–2023)
3/10
Time to retire the laugh track
18 January 2022
Now to be fair it is only 2 episodes in but so far its completely inferior to HIMYM, I rewatched the 1st episode of that and it was alot funny and more well put together.

I really hated the laugh track because 70% of the time the "jokes" didnt land and so it felt like the show was telling you "this is a funny line, you should be laughing" even as you dont even crack a smile (20% of the time it got a half smile).

The Kim Cattrall parts and voice over are extremely cringe

The show might improve and be fun to watch but so far its not starting off strong, its the character that made HIMYM so that will be a huge deciding factor going forward (no point even trying to replace Neil Patrick Harris's Barny as it just cant be done).

Ps I see alot of reviews that give it a 7-8* with comments like has potential or, no HIMYM but might get there etc......which makes me question what rating they gave that show and how they rate this one so high currently on the possibility it improves.
