One of the best things about HIMYM was the evolution of Barney Stinson as a character. I don't think we'll ever see another sitcom that has a character like Barney, he's just too well written and acted
i thought they kinda made the character so much less funny by pairing him with robin, coz the two just didnt really fit together as a couple. it felt forced
@@rcmanization Idk, i am just guessing here, but probably because you felt like she had to end up with Ted, which is fair enough. But they really did fit together, i mean look at the similarities.

I loved Barney and Robin’s chemistry so much. Neil did a tremendous job portraying Barney. I still think he’s one of the best tv characters ever, especially in comedies
Dr.Horrible was a passion project of Joss Whedon. So, I think he wanted to distance himself a little. Also, there is only so long you get to discuss your career here lol
I met Neil Patrick Harris in the summer of 1998 when he was in Rent (the musical) in LA. He was absolutely lovely. Such a sweet guy, I told him I loved him in Starship Troopers and he thanked me. He was really down to earth.
It's interesting that while his filmography isn't the deepest, he's had such a profound impact in the few roles that he has done. His talent and charisma are just undeniable. Also, honorable mention to Dr. Horrible's Sing-a-long Blog, wish it had been included here!
How i met your mother has got to be my favorite show of all time. It almost gives you a look on how the real world works and there will never be another character like Barney. Cheers Patrick.
I wish he had talked about the basketball hoop scene in HIMYM. One of my favorite, and one of the most heartbreaking scenes in the entire show, in my opinion. "If you were going to be some lame suburban dad, why couldn't you have been that for me?"
@@itsutoriku lmao u kinda right but barney is a lilttle older and got more style. Stiffler is the frat version of barney, but maybe when stiff master got a little bit older, he would be just like Barney.
I have nothing but respect for Neil. Being a child star and coming up through adulthood with his roles. Also, the AIM part gets me laughing because I remember that era so much. I wish him nothing but happiness and some normalcy in life.
I didn't mind it. HIMYM always kept it real. Whether it has Lily run away, or Marshall's dad dying, or Ted getting left at the altar, or Robin and Barney getting divorced. These are all very real situations we find ourselves in at a moment's notice, and they are heart-wrenching. Each is abrupt and painful in their own way. As for Ted getting with Robin at the end, this makes sense too. Very few viewers asked themselves, "Why is Ted telling his kids this story in the first place?" The fact that the story spent SO much time on Robin and so little time on the mother suddenly made sense; he wanted to see if his kids were okay with him getting together with Robin again. When an ending answers questions one didn't even think to ask, that's something truly special.
@@JM-us3fr Nah, they spent a season & a half getting us into Barney & Robin just to break it off in the final episode. And their reason for breakup would also apply to her and Ted. They did exactly like Game of Thrones by trying to force the original vision ending onto the organic stories. It failed.
@@shannond7437 Well first of all, shipping wars are not real life. Second, it made complete sense with both Barney and Robin’s characters that they couldn’t stay together. Of course every marriage feels hopeful at the wedding, but happily-ever-afters only exist in fairy tales. Game of Thrones failed because the directors were god-awful writers, and even worse when compared to George RR Martin. The ending of HIMYM felt complete; like the story was always about…real life, with real friends and real relationships, and especially real hardships.
Nobody likes when a show ends and nowadays, if it doesn't stick to a typical trope, people don't like it. I love shows that don't stick to those typical tropes.
Ending was amazing. It was full circle and made sense, and in my humble opinion, if you don't like the ending, you're not a real fan of HIMYM. 🤭🤭sorry not sorry
i might've set the world record on rewatching HIMYM for the past 12 years, almost 15x a year at least rewatching everything.. (practically all i watch before going to bed) NPH's role as Barney actually makes me enjoy the series so much more.. absolute impact as an actor on everything he plays.
NPH doesn't seem to have done that much in his career but he is so charismatic and memorable in his roles that he has stayed in our minds and was never forgotten.
Well for a tv actor is pretty succesful, most tv actors just get one great roles, look at FRIENDS cast; jennifer aniston is probably the only one with a nice career post FRIENDS NPH made doogie howser, Himym, a series of unfortunate events, all of them awesome, now he has another leading role in uncoupled
NPH was introduced to me as Barney in How I Met Your Mother. By far the most dynamic character on the show and one of the best actors I've ever seen. It's nice to hear him talk so fondly on some of his previous roles, especially Barney
I have watched so many of these types of videos and I almost didn't click this one because I thought itd be terrible. And now I know it was gold. He is a great story teller. I didn't even know any of the movies other than Harold and kumar but I did know he was famous. Great vid. Didn't realize how interesting this dude was. Cheers to his future painting
I think he’d be really fun to have at a party or something. He’d be the nice guy who goes up to talk to the quiet one at the party or something like that.
Absolutely love Uncoupled. It is almost exactly what happened to me at age 46 after 12 year relationship and it is real and funny and perfect! Neil is a wonderful actor and his genuine nature always come through.
I finished HIMYM for the third time yesterday, i'm proud (except for the ending episodes lol) of Barney's character development. The Robin must be one of the most romantic engagement proposals ever haha :)
Same, I was so terrified that he was going to be miscast due to his comedic persona (and frankly there were some criticisms about his casting) but I actually thought that he pulled it off quite well for an against type role. He plays a creep but it's not in a way that felt so exaggerated. I wish people would appreciate his acting in that movie a lot more
Man, I just love this dude. Such a humble and inspiring human being. Dr Horrible’s ending broke my heart, they should’ve mentioned this project for sure.
He made how I met your mother succeed, he has the best character development. It did not end the way I want it, but is is one of my fav comedy show forever. 😊
Not sure if it's the theater training, but the way he measures and annunciates every syllable of every word to great effect is mesmerizing. I was only going to watch for the Doogie part but stayed for the whole video.
That Tony Awards opening number at Radio City Music Hall was one of the if not the, greatest live theatre musical numbers I've ever witnessed in 50 years. I don't know if anyone will ever top it, kudos to NPH.
NPH, you’ve made such an impact on stage and off. I love how you always throw in some magic too. You’re such a great actor and can’t wait to see what you’ll do after Uncoupled, cause it’s a great show seeing you in diff type role.
I can't think of a character more synonymous with my childhood than Barney. He was and still is the coolest & funniest guy ever to me. Thank you so much for bringing this character to life Neil. Forever grateful for you x
"I kept trying to be in movies but I was just a TV person." - Neil Patrick Harris Times may have changed a bit but this is still true for me. Kudos to NPH for his film acting credits and for helping to create iconic characters on the... small screen.
No "A Series of Unfortunate Events" is really sad. I didn''t think anybody could do a better job than Jim as Count Olaf, but I was wrong Neil nailed it.
I wished we could've seen a section on Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog. NPH and Nathan Fillion were both fantastic and Felicia Day did a good job supporting them.
NPH is always a delight to watch. How I Met Your Mother. Doogie Hauser M.D. Starship Troopers. Even Uncoupled was fun to watch. I still can’t wait to see him on Doctor Who for the 60th Anniversary special.
This is amazing, I only recently ACTUALLY met Neil because of barney stintson but I watched Gone Girl when it was released a looong time ago but I don't actually remembered the movie except for this EXACT scene that you showed here with Neil wich does say a lot about his acting it's just such an intense acting
11:56 "That doesn't happen nearly enough...the follow-through" *wink* The moment I simultaneously snorted my drink and slammed the like button. Hilarious.
This was one of the best interviews. NPH is so smart, so intelligent, so bright, and so well-spoken. “Stalkery “, what a great word. And he can sing and dance too. Remarkable.
As a child, Doogie Howser, M.D. was my first favorite evening tv show because I just thought he was so cute and I had a huge crush on him at that time, even though I was only between 4 and 8 years old when the show had aired. I'd love to go back and watch the show again!
@@emilyoryall406 Unfortunately, my family does not pay for any entertainment subscriptions beyond regular cable (Dish Network). I also don't really watch much tv, which is why a subscription service would be a waste of money for my family. Occasionally I'll see previews for something that's only available through a subscription service that I'd really like to watch, but again, it would be a waste of money for me to purchase a subscription just to watch one documentary or whatever.
This guy is simply an amazing actor! He might not have done the most serious roles, but OMG he is amazing! And I am so exited about having another season of his new show! :D
I'm very sad he chose not to have them include 'Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog', as for the online community, it really was a part of his comeback into solid fame. And for it being a 'silly' online series, it really was amazing. And to anyone who has never seen it, you should definitely do so... NPH as a comic-book villain...with an online blog... Brilliant.
@@dravenleepalmer They're not going to not film what he wants to talk about, nor just randomly cut out entire segments that he wants in. This was likely NPH's decision not to bring it up if GQ didn't ask about it.
Those of us who have watched Neal since the 1990s are very fortunate. As others stated here, he brings a lot to the table in every role. For me, his hallmarks were Barney Stinson, and hosting the Tony awards as himself. The dude is a powerhouse of talent and comedy. 🙌 🎭 ❤️
Back in 1997, I saw NPH as Mark in the La Jolla PlayHouse production of "Rent." He absolutely crushed the role. Funny, that upon subsequent viewings of Rent, I realized it's an ensemble production, and that Mark is not the main protagonist. NPH was that good in the role- he stole the whole show.
Who doesn't love this guy? seriously? I mean, coming out was a bit of a shock for those of us who grew up with him, but he's always been good in everything I've ever seen him in. Though I haven't seen his last show, I guess.....not exactly my type of show. But almost kind of sad that I haven't seen it because I'm sure he's excellent in that too.
I know Barney parodies everything toxic about being a man but nontheless... That charackter entered my life in a critical moment and helped me as a gateway to form an ego I desperately needed. Because if a caricature like Barney can have self estem, a normal person should have no problems having some for themself. Thank you Mr. Harris. Your performance will be forgotten in time for reasons I do not understand but you saved me.
Barney Stinson is simply one of the best characters in Television History.
Exactly, he is Legen .... wait for it

Nah, those are Jim Cary’s. As good as Neil was in the series, he could never fill those shoes.

People hated the ending but I feel it’s realistic and it wasn’t that bad
People always have something to complian about

@@smartyhardy8924 this scene!!! TEAAAERS 💔💔
Jesus loves y’all! God bless y’all! “Jesus is the way, and the truth, and the life.” John 14:6.’”””
NPH has ONE HUNDRED AND FOURTEEN credits as an actor on IMDB. HIMYM and Dougie Houser count as 1 each. That’s crazy he works more than you realize.
Between those, he hosted a lot of award shows especially the Tony Awards 4 times and pulled it off brilliantly
Barney is hands down one of the top 3 funniest characters in TV history.
Facts!!
Love science too!
That character would never survive in todays PC climate
Exactly, it is like the age of comedy is behind us.
Honest as well, he ended up being a single middle age dad because he found the most important person in the world to love...his daughter.
Neil Patric Harris is the best caracter Barney Stinson has ever portrayed. Thank you. Thank you Barney
I love what you did there
The best play he's ever done

I came into the comments to say the exact same thing! Such a great role for him
Sameee
Same!

this comment immediately made me sad because I certainly would have hoped to hear about it
11:25 so your telling me that the reason they put Barney and robin together was because he was actually flirting with robin’s actor 😂
And Robin & Barney’s growth were a HUGE part of why the ending failed. They gave us their original planned finale versus the organic story’s ending.

@@scottobeach amazing creator terrible human you mean, that man made Buffy and angel FFS but ye terrible human
Nah. It was all Harold & Kumar and then getting HIMYM
9:41 "wears sharp suits all the time" said Swarley while wearing the ducky tie
I love his honesty in this interview!
It"s weird not seeing him in a suit ngl 🤣🤣🤣
This man's charisma is unmatched
Dude Starship Troopers is one of my favourite films and HIMYM is one of my favourite TV shows. You killed it in both. You're a grade A legend.
It bums me out that he didn't discuss count Olaf. Would have loved to hear his take on the show and everything that came with it.
„No you are delightful, im delighted and he‘s just ted.“ this gets me every time
i've been watching a series of unfortunate events and i just love him in it. so grandiose and over the top. love it.
Those of us who have watched Neal since the 1990s are very fortunate. As others stated here, he brings a lot to the table in every role.
For me, his hallmarks were Barney Stinson, and hosting the Tony awards as himself. The dude is a powerhouse of talent and comedy. 🙌 🎭 ❤️
Back in 1997, I saw NPH as Mark in the La Jolla PlayHouse production of "Rent." He absolutely crushed the role. Funny, that upon subsequent viewings of Rent, I realized it's an ensemble production, and that Mark is not the main protagonist. NPH was that good in the role- he stole the whole show.

Now that I have watched how much met your mother twice, it’s unnatural to me to not see Neil Patrick Harris without a suit
He is such a wonderful actor!
i paused this video halfway through to go watch uncoupled. great show!!!
NPH is one of those rare talents that actually has a shot at an EGOT.
He's in a rather special class, having won an Emmy for hosting the Tonys.
Please let there be Un-Coupled Season 2.
“Barney” stole the show of HIMYM. I don’t think they intended on him being so much of the focus.
I HATED how they ended the show.
The first time I saw him was in the show "lemony Snicket series of unfortunate events" and I loved him so much!
Who doesn't love this guy? seriously? I mean, coming out was a bit of a shock for those of us who grew up with him, but he's always been good in everything I've ever seen him in. Though I haven't seen his last show, I guess.....not exactly my type of show. But almost kind of sad that I haven't seen it because I'm sure he's excellent in that too.
Why not watch one episode before you make your mind up that it isn’t your type of show ?
Look up the Neil Patrick Harris Amy Winehouse cake, guys.
I absolutely loved him in Touched By An Angel.
i just realized both the people in the car at 0:37 were in HIMYM
And dated with the same woman
I was hoping he would talk about a Serious of Unfortunate Events.
He tells his stories like John Mulaney and I love it
loved te rewiev over a lot of chars he played. But uncoupled is, for me, the show! looking forward for S02!
It would be awesome to see Neil Patrick in more comedies this dude hilarious.
I know Barney parodies everything toxic about being a man but nontheless...
That charackter entered my life in a critical moment and helped me as a gateway to form an ego I desperately needed. Because if a caricature like Barney can have self estem, a normal person should have no problems having some for themself.
Thank you Mr. Harris. Your performance will be forgotten in time for reasons I do not understand but you saved me.
NPH played it so well in Harold and Kumar.
...and Starship Troopers 👌🏻
