It's Awesome Times Awesome...Awesome Square...

                  Ever since I was a kid, I have been passionate towards English language. I still can’t figure out the instinct that ignited impetuosity towards English language in me, and which made me a logophile!! There are umpteen people, movies and friends I adore; for their profound way of speech/dialogues and for their (creators) commanding knowledge on English language.

Till the first week of Oct’09, this movie stood right on top of my favorites list because of this character’s dialogues. But (I wonder why there is a BUT for everything in life?) in the first week of Oct’09 I met “How I Met Your Mother” aka “HIMYM” and it reached the top of the chart because of this character’s dialogues.

        It’s a sitcom aired by CBS. The plot is about the main character Ted Mosby; in the year 2030 recounts to his son and daughter the events that led to his meeting their mother (which explains the title), about his friends and the stuff they did in NY.I give two reasons why this TV series has reached the top of my favorites chart and why it has taken a place in my blog.

 1) Few dialogues, metaphors, and clichés used in this program are lame but the way they presented them are awesome and rib tickling.

2) Characterization; the characters Ted, Lily, and Marshall are loosely based on the characters of the show creators, which gave them, ease in chalking out the characters very natural and realistic.

Being a logophile, I asked many people “what could be the most beautiful word in English?” Finally this show answered me. It’s AWESOME.
