Well, this just proved that Becki Newton isn't the Bride at all on HIMYM if she's booked another pilot.
ReplyDeleteI hope this works for her! I miss Amanada!! Ugly Betty got cut way too early - damn ratings...
ReplyDeleteStill not sure since it's a pilot by Bays and Thomas.
ReplyDeleteShe won't end up with Barney, but that doesn't mean she won't be the bride in that particular episode.
Doesn't sound like the kind of show I would watch but I hope Becki gets a stable job!
ReplyDeleteSo happy for Becky!!!
ReplyDeleteI hope it's good and gets picked up (and she get s role for Micheal Urie on the show ;D)
