I'm sorry, Cobie Smulders, you're actually not that bad. I recently watched a bunch of repeats of How I Met Your Mother featuring the back story on the Ted and Robin relationship, and she is actually fairly likeable. I think it was the part where she has about 15 dogs as pets that really sold me on her.
How I Met Your Mother actually is genius, for two reasons: 1. There was an entire episode on "Crazy Eye." My friend first told me about Crazy Eye several years ago. It's essentially the look of insanity/desperation in the eyes that reveals someone might be a bunny boiler. Many girls at business school have Crazy Eye. It's creepy. 2. There was a bit in one episode about the show on NY1 where the newscaster just reads the morning paper to the viewer. I can't really describe how amusing this is in words, but if you live in NYC you must check this out. The show did an excellent job of portraying the phenomenon accurately, and having hilarious commentary on it to boot.
