Line 2:
* [[Acting for Two]]: The five main lead actors also play their respective doppelgangers.
* [[Actor Allusion]]:
** Recently featured Barney, played by Neil Patrick Harris, typing up a blog entry--The "''[[Doogie Howser, M.D.]]"'' theme plays while he types. In a later episode he comments that "Child actors were just better in the 80's" (''[[Doogie Howser, M.D.]]'' again). In fact, it seems we have a diehard Doogie fan. In a Season 5 episode, NPH shows up in scrubs. The season seven episode "No pressure" has Barney compare Lily and Marshall to preppy kids who stage and bet on hobo fights. NPH was a preppy kid who staged and bet on hobo fights on ''Boomtown''.
** Another one is with [[Alyson Hannigan]]'s character. When having cold feet before her marriage, one of the items on the list of experiences to have is a big lesbian experience. Her most famous role is lesbian witch Willow from ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]''. Her favorite name for her baby: Tara (Willow's girlfriend from Buffy).
** At the end of Ten Sessions, the tattoo removal doctor tells Ted to call her if he ever ends up with a dolphin tattoo on his right ankle, which is coincidentally the tattoo that Alyson Hannigan has in real life.
