It may just be me, but I feel like these shows all already had season finales since, ya know, the whole strike happened.
By the way, I’ve been meaning to ask: What do you think of Britney Spears’ cameos on How I Met Your Mother? And I absolutely thought the girl from Scrubs would be the mother since Scrubs was ending, but now that you say it’s moving, I’m all confused again.
