Before anybody says anything, it's now owned by Disney not Fox which is likely how they got it. Surprising move, IMO. Don't care for it particularly, though.

Still such a lack of variety with the multi-hour blocks on LAFF :p

Wow. I've... I've lost hope that Laff will ever get better. -_-

I especially hated it when they took off Empty Nest. I first started watching it in January 2018, about 3 months before it was removed. And I was in school when it was on, but when we had the day off, you could bet I was watching Empty Nest! Then they took it off. F***ers...

Laff is starting to go downhill and it’s really sad.

Only show I like on Laff is Home Improvement. I watch that sometimes but other than that I really don’t watch Laff. I used to watch Empty Nest back in late 2016 and all throughout 2017.

It is too bad LAFF will air awful How I Met Your Mother now. They should have gotten Corner Gas instead. It is not widely known to the US, but with proper promotion Corner Gas could do well. WGN never gave it much of a chance. If the foul mouthed creek comedy from Canada has become popular here, the much superior Corner Gas should be able to as well.

Someone on another television forum that I'm a member of said that it’s not going to end well and I agree with them.

How I Met Your Mother is a show from the US, not Canada.

How I Met Your Mother is a show from the US, not Canada.I am well aware of that. But How I Met Your Mother is still a lousy show that was not needed on LAFF at all. My point was the foul mouthed creek show from Canada has become popular in the US, so the far superior Corner Gas from the 2000s decade should be able to do well here with proper promotion.

They seem to be promoting the show a lot, and probably want it to do well. I can’t see this lasting a long time though.

We don't know if 3rd Rock is staying or not

According to a Facebook post, You asked... and Laff TV listened... there is a new crew coming to Laff! And it's going to be legendary. Laff has acquired the rights to How I Met Your Mother. The sitcom will join the lineup of According to Jim, That '70s Show, Home Improvement, Night Court, Grace Under Fire and 3rd Rock from the Sun. The series, which ran from 2005 to 2014 for 208 episodes on CBS, follows the main character, Ted Mosby, and his group of friends in New York City's Manhattan. As a framing device, Ted, in the year 2030, recounts to his son and daughter the events that led him to meet their mother. The ensemble comedy stars Josh Radnor, Jason Segel, Cobie Smulders, Neil Patrick Harris and Alyson Hannigan.
