I admit it. I love Neil Patrick Harris. I have loved him since Doogie Howser, M.D. Come on, this man has done some amazing things! Doogie Howser! Starship Troopers! How I Met Your Mother! Dr. Horrible! And some other things that I can’t remember off of the top of my head.
Nothing makes me laugh more than the Halloween episode of HIMYM when there is a knock at the door and Barney reaches in, starts a boom box, and appears in the door dressed as Tom Cruise in Top Gun. I laugh and laugh and laugh.
I read a comment recently that someone thought Doogie Howser was one of the first bloggers. At the end of every episode, he typed up his journal entries, discussing his thoughts of what had gone on over the past few days. Sure, he wasn’t posting it on the internet, but he was posting it for everyone to see, in a way, if you break the fourth wall. Not only was he a child prodigy, he was years and years ahead of his time. Tragically, his computer was a bit behind the times.
It makes me want to revamp my templates to resemble Doogie Howser’s computer. Everyone wants to read green text on a black screen all day, right?
I wonder what Dr. Howser is up to nowadays. I liked NPH’s opinion that he was probably an angry drug addict limping around a hospital on a cane and torturing his fellow doctors.
I do kinda miss the green letters on black….granted, I never saw Doogie Howser.
Wait…you liked Starship Troopers?
Starship Troopers is amazing! It’s total camp, designed to be so. Brilliant.
