Can't They Just Let Her Have Her Moment??!!!

Neil Patrick Harris, shut up.

I know that "How I Met Your Mother" is YOUR tour de force, the bench from which only YOU hold court. But finally, Britner Spears did something good and looked good doing it. But can you just let her have that? Nooooo, you have to sit there with your artistically-tousled hair and denigrate it because "they're getting guest stars for the wrong reason."

Um, what are your ratings like, Neil? What were they after she came on the show? Exactly. Zip it, Zelda.

I'm not a huge fan of Britney, either--I find her vapid, talentless, pre-fab and mass-produced. But finally she did something that was quasi-entertaining, even if it was brief. We should be ENCOURAGING this behavior, not belittling it. Stop with the sour grapes already. It makes you look like what you're destined to someday become:

A pissy old queen. (See "Elton John.")

Um, you'd think someone who played himself in "Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle" would not have a problem with stunt casting. Sarah

I know!! And he played himself on "SNL" in an opening monologue back when he was "Doogie Howser," too! Granted, that's a variety show and it was a cameo, but even so, it lasted no longer than Britney's stint on "HIMYM."

I mean, he's cute and all, but enuff awready!! This "artistic integrity" is coming a bit late for someone who's doing a fluffy TV sitcom with precious little substance as it is...
