this is why i was fuming when there were so many people standing on the right side of the escalators in the city train stations but then i saw they were all wearing Brisbane Lions merch
Last night I literally ended my night early because I was tired and “really needed to get my shit together” and then realised it was the first day of Virgo season
Neil Patrick Harris reveals How I Met Your Mother only filmed 22 weeks out of the year and Mondays were a one-hour day
“We only filmed for half of the year, really. Because you’re only doing 22 episodes, so that’s 22 weeks out of the year that you’re filming. You got every fourth week off while the writers kind of kept writing and tightened things up”
“It was kind of the dream job”
“Monday you’d go in for a table read, where you’d sit around a table and you’d read the script so that the network people could hear it, the writers could hear it. They’d know what was landing and wasn’t. You go home. You’d work for one hour on Monday”
“Tuesday you’d go in 10 AM. You’d rehearse the scenes with the director and just the cast, and then at like lunchtime 15 people would come in. You’d put on a play. People would laugh, whatever. You go home”
“Then Wednesday, Thursday, Friday you’d film. If you weren’t in the scenes, you didn’t have to be there. And we filmed it like it was a sitcom. We didn’t have a studio audience, but we had the cameras as if it was a studio audience”
“And then you just got to play for three days. Fantastic. It was the best job”
