Is it too much to ask for a return to the writers strike?
Okay, T.V. producers: The writers strike is over and you're scared television audiences won't remember your show exists. What do you do?
If you're "My Name is Earl" and "How I Met Your Mother," you rely on the time-honored tradition of stunt casting to get your name back into the public consciousness.
And if you're lame, and not all that funny to begin with, like... oh, I don't know... "My Name is Earl" and "How I Met Your Mother," just for example, you choose two ridiculously famous people who are also lame and not at all funny.
Like Paris Hilton and Britney Spears, respectively.
That's right, look forward to Paris Hilton and Britney Spears crapping up the networks when new episodes of "My Name is Earl" and "How I Met Your Mother" return in April.
Thank god T.V. is back, eh?

No, it could be a good show, but it's not. A lot of the jokes fall flat, and frankly, Ted - the main character - is just annoying.
I've watched the entire first season and random eps in the subsequent seasons hoping that it would get better because I think it has the potential to be funny.
It's not there yet. It probably never will be, and that's why they need Britney Spears to generate interest.

I dont watch, My Name is Earl, but I know a writer on it.
I do watch How I Met Your Mother and thats a great show.
Neil Patrick Harris as Barney, he is a classic.
Im sure that they will make Britney a highlight and not the star. They are good that way.
