The predictions over Britney Spears’ complete and utter downfall well may be premature.

Britney has had a widely publicized comic stint on the CBS hit, “How I Met Your Mother.”

Now, thanks to Britney Spears and her appearance last night, the show has scored its highest ratings in series history. As CBS’ comedy schedule took a dive in the ratings, Britney brought the Neil Patrick Harris show to new heights. Also appearing in this episode was Sarah Chalke of Scrubs (shown above right).

It was a really good epispde. I really enjoyed it. Britney was good in it.. although I wish she didn't play such a ditzy character. But otherwise I though she did good.

I LOVED the little 2 minute date at the end. Too cute!!
