How I Met My Co-Star

With Don taking the job in Chicago, breaking poor Robin’s heart, our favorite early early EARLY morning newscaster needs a new co-anchor.

Enter Laura Bell Bundy, who was nominated for a Tony for her role as Elle Woods in Legally Blonde The Musical. According to reports, she’s been cast in How I Met Your Mother as Robin’s new co-anchor who may have a storyline with Ted. Maybe she’s the mother? Maybe she’ll be a girlfriend Ted keeps around for more than one episode? Either way, I’m excited for this casting news. I’ve seen Bundy in both “Wicked” (as Glinda) and Legally Blonde. She’s a good comedic actress and will serve as a nice foil to Robin.

So, all this casting news is making me excited for the new season!
