A decent show
Great for teenagers and adults. Has progressively been getting worse, however.

Mature 13+ should be fine for this excellent sitcom
This is a great show (though it's definitely been sliding since s4) that's probably okay for some 12-13 year olds. Everyone 13+ is probably fine. Some episodes can mention sex quite a bit (the absolute worst episodes ever are probably the three where orgies involving 10 and 12 partners and a vibrator are mentioned, all in season 2). Just make sure your kids know what sex is. Otherwise... yeah, no.

Not meant for kids, without supervision at least
Neil Patrick Harris is hilarious! He makes the show! Kids shouldn't watch it though, some of the stuff is not at all meant to be heard or seen by them. Otherwise very funny :)

Not so great okay for teens CBS show.
I've seen a few episodes; to tell you the truth, it does nothing for me. It got a few laughs from me but not too much really.

One of the best series ever!
I am inlove with HIMYM it's just so funny!. Sometimes an episode can be funny, emotional and inappropriate. But its too long to get to the point where they actually show who Ted marries (The Mother) on HIMYM, so that kinda puts a lot of suspense into it. Ted is a sweet and kind guy he's awesome. Barney on the other hand is a sex addict, he always talks about girls and sex. In some of the episodes he falls inlove with Robin which i thought was sooo sweet. But they wouldnt make a cute couple. Robin is one of the characters i dont like so much :| (I dont know why). Marshall&Lily are like the best characters!!! I was so sad in those episodes where they broke up and they cancelled their wedding! Im really hoping to see more of the episodes and finally figure out who the mother is!!

Awesome!
I love this show! It's great for most ages and it's funny. Trust me, the stuff they hear on T.V. is sterile clean compared to stuff at school.

 
Great for teens and adults
The only thing negative about the show is how much they talk about sex. This show is hilarious. I love it. I want to be best friends with Marshal, Lily, Ted, Robin, and Barney.

good show, but language, not so good
In MAD, they did how i met my brother which is stupid, nobody steals ideas from this show, too hilarious and funny to make a joke out of! In one episode, they use the word "a--".

For adults and mature teens
I think this show is Very funny for adults, and depending on the maturity of your child it is ok for them also. There are quite a few sexual references and innuendoes in each episode. The shows friends spend a lot of time in a bar, but don't really do a lot of drinking.

How I Met Your Mother Taught Me How To Be Hilarious!
I completely love this show! Yes there is some explicit sexual references, and Barney is completely and utterly a horrible rolemodel, the humor is perfect for tweens! And the fact that Ted is looking for a real relationship says something.

Hilarious prime-time sitcom.
I started watching HIMYM just a few months ago, and I've seen all of seasons 1-4. Like my review title says, it's hilarious, especially Barney, even though he isn't the best role model in the world. I'd say that HIMYM is safe for anyone over the age of twelve, because some humor/plot lines might fly over younger kids' heads.
