Neil Patrick Harris In A Fat Suit

ew.com:

So how are Barney (Neil Patrick Harris) and Robin (Cobie Smulders) faring as a couple on How I Met Your Mother? Well, if the upcoming Nov. 9 episode of the CBS comedy is any indication, maybe not so great. Barney, it seems, has packed on some pounds. "It's a phenomenon that a lot of people can relate to, certainly more than a few people on our writing staff. It's relationship gut," says HIMYM exec producer and co-creator Carter Bays.

For a second I thought Andy Richter lost a bit of weight.

When I saw the pic I thought Matthew Perry fell off the wagon.

Martin Short as Jiminy Glick is better.

Oh good. I was wondering when someone from hollywood was going to put on another fat suit. Glad to see hollywood hasn't stopped mocking overweight people. How long has it been? A week?

When a show resorts to this, there is no reason to watch it anymore, no matter how funny it might have been.

Way to go hollywood.

I too am tired of fat jokes and mean-spirited attacks on the obese.

yeah, to be fat - and old - is a fate worse than death apparently. rather sick of it. yeah - ha ha ha - see the fat person! yucks galore! ha ha ha - see the old person! more yucks galore!

it's how hollywood marginalizes people - because, you know, we're all supposed to be young and beautiful forever.

I'll add one more voice. Its lame and symptomatic of writers who can't actually think of something original or funny.

[JimR]

I agree. That's really scraping the bottom of the barrel for laughs.

Harris is no Brad Pitt. He's just sexier.

[jjgg5]

It's no matter. He'd still be a juicer.

[jjgg5]

What?

Did he have hair implants, or is that a toupe. I thought his hair was thinning.
