Yeh, I'm actually watching that right now. It's good but still not as good as HIMYM.

I love HIMYM. Try Rules of Engagement. It airs right after HIMYM. I'd also suggest Big Bang Theory, but that's been suggested already.

Both the characters are equally annoying though.

Which characters are annoying aside from (possibly) Ted and Sheldon (who is supposed to be annoying)?

It's not that I don't find them funny, it's just that they sometimes behave so annoyingly that I just want to go inside the screen and slap them silly.

▲ I guess any of the shows previously mentioned. They're all equally mediocre. ▲

Sheldon is currently my favourite TV character. He literally made me cry of laugher during the christmas gift exchange in the second season.

Big Bang Theory.Lonelynight
I hate Big Bang Theory the most out of any sitcom. How I Met Your Mother's laugh track is alright because it works and you grow attached to the characters and the story, but in BBT they use that horrid laugh to slam even the most pathetic jokes down your throat. It started getting really bad from Season 3.

I know it's not anything like HIMYM but try out Community (and check out my blog post about it from the link in my sig), it is amazing. Without a doubt the best comedy on TV.

New Girl is a great show and is a lot like HIMYM. Cougar town is a nice more mature comedy. Also Friends is like How I Met Your Mother but it is old and the jokes wont be as relevant or near as enjoyable as if you watched it back when it was new. I haven't seen and other comedies that the actors just gel together as perfectly as they do in HIMYM and you can definitively tell that they get along very well off the set. Anyways good luck definitely try out New Girl and Cougar Town.

Friends is the obvious answer. It's much, much better, too.

Was that even suppose to be funny? I thought it was more of a "oh no" moment. But I honestly don't remember. There is nothing especially memorable of any of its episodes. But I never said it was bad, just not good. I maybe chuckled quietly a few times which is alot more than I can say of How I Met Your Mother.

If there was a laugh track playing when it happened then, yes, it was supposed to be a funny moment. I don't really remember.
