S1E1 How I met your mother

It's a friend's copy. But the story is better. In my opinion, the characters are funnier than Friend's.
As in Friend's, the main action of the series takes place in a bar with the same characters. Furthermore, scenes are not continuous that's why it lacks details in the story. 
We can imagine Barney will get married with the journalist who went to restaurant with Ted. Moreover, I think Ted will revise the young single who cryed during his meeting with Robin.
