Alyson and Britney

I'm looking forward to getting the first season of the sitcom how I Met your mother. Because it stars Alyson Hannigan.

Now it seems the show's ratings has been boosted by a guest appearance of Britney Popstar. Good for Britney and good for Alyson.

When Britney was a guest star on Will And Grace, I was actually pretty impressed. She really nailed her part. I think there is much more to her than meets the eye.

Talking about Alyson Hannigan, she was the one great thing about the otherwise pretty abysmal Date Movie. Like somebody said about Whoopi Goldberg in The Color Purple: it's amazing that somebody can be this brilliant in such an awful movie. Apart from being beautiful and funny, she has an almost unique talent for doing and saying the most incredibly raunchy things with total innocence and likability. You gotta love that.

All right, Date Movie had its moments. It had really good cinematography, and a host of very talented actors. And it had some jokes that worked. But for mature audiences, it was ruined by tons of the worst kind of gross-out comedy.

You might be disappointed. Alyson is good as always but the comedy is a by-the-numbers sitcom.
