- In this video, I am reacting to "Nothing Suits Me Like A Suit" from How I Met Your Mother musical episode Girls Versus Suits, sung by the broadway icon himself Neil Patrick Harris aka. Barney Stinson. This is part one of a new series on my channel where I will be reacting to the musical episodes of mainstream TV shows and ranking them in a tier list. What show should a react to next?

Hey to quote nph himself "broadway is not just for gays anymore" xD
So true! 🤣
Accept NPH is Gay not that matters
@@Marky11694 just to be clear, that is a quote from an song perform by nph at the opening of the 2010 or 2011 tony awards (Broadway awards)
Its a total banger give it a watch, also his following performance are as good or better for the other tony's he hosted
@@a3-radio He can't top the 2013 opener. He got a solid minute standing ovation.
@@AmieMariah_ I Really Love ❤ How I Met Your Mother Sitcom Very Much.
The guy who played Marshall (the tall goofy guy) is also really into Broadway. They would apparently break into a rendition of confrontation in the middle of filming.
Straight male here, and honestly I don't know how many times I watched and rewatched videos of NPH hosting those Tonys. Best hosting numbers ever. Plus him his husband and children are so cute together I can't.
Oh and please start a reaction series to Galavant, it's a whole show made of musical numbers.
Firstly welcome! Omg yes, NPH's family are so cute!!! Their Halloween costumes every year are literal family goals 😍 I've seen a few recommendations for Galavant so I'm definitely going to have to suss it out
@@AmieMariah_ Thank you so much! Goals exactly, it brings so much joy. 🤩 Oh glad to hear it I'm looking forward to it. I know it wasn't very much successful, but the singing, the Monty Python humor, the very meta awareness... I just love it. 😏
The 2013 opening number is insane.
Jason Segal (Marshall) is definitely the next strongest vocally of cast after NPH. He was in The Muppets (2011) and he and NPH have a couple interviews where they do a great version of the confrontation from Les Mis
Well Don't sleep on Josh radnor he's an amazing singer you should check out his original songs.
Nah Josh Radnor is probably next best
@@jakeclough8090 true
The confrontation's a difficult song alright, although I do have to say Jason started off the song on the wrong pitch and he rushed the timing because the atmosphere was really embarassing 😅I would've definitely been frazzled too.
Shame they didn't finish the song.
I mean, if you include Cristin Milioti, she’s miles ahead of all of the cast except for Neil Patrick Harris.
You blew my mind more than half of the female population New York blew Barney’s..... well you get the picture🤯
Hahaha this comment it GOLD 😂
They blew his suits.
Mind, blew his mind, remember Ted… your talking to your kids
- Buffy musical episode
- Scrubs musical episode
- Once Upon A Time musical episode
- Community musical episode
Just added these all the the list, you are a legend! Thank you 😊
@@AmieMariah_ Oh man! The Community Musical Episode was fantastic!
COMMUNITY😍
The Flash "Duet" 3x17.
Its one of the best musical episodes that I have ever seen.
Oooh! I'll add it to my list 😊
There is nothing that surprises me anymore with Neil Patrick Harris he can do anything he has the best opening for tonys(2013 react on it pls)
No way, I was just watching this show on Netflix recently
Such a good show, it never gets old!
Did you you know Marshall wrote a muppet musical?
I knew he was in it but I did not know he wrote it! 🤯
Part of me wants to say the Supernatural musical but it's a 200th episode special and almost like a stage musical within the tv show so it might be weird haha!
You should definitely react to "Once more with feeling" from Buffy the Vampire Slayer (S06E07). It is arguably the episode that popularized musical episodes on TV shows. The episodes also features Alysson Hannigan (Lily from HIMYM), besides the suits/jacket dance at 5:24 is a reference to "The Mustard" from the mentioned episode. (The actors don't have so much vocal training though).
PS.: Straight man, already new about NPH, but only found out after watching HIMYM musical episode
I found out Buffy had a musical episode when I was researching for this series but I didn't realise how iconic it was, now I'm really excited to react to it! Thank you so much
Okay, I gotta respond to an old comment. Is the choreography being an homage to Buffy a fact? Because knowing the creators were Buffy fans, I always wondered it might be. I even tried to find info on it at some point, but found nothing. Also since I know absolutely nothing about musicals, I thought that might be just a basic move and the jackets were just a coincidence. And if it was an homage, surely it would have been mentioned somewhere.
As a straight guy who just found your channel because I've been looking for people reacting to Neil Patrick Harris' Tony performances, I definitely new already.
That said, this episode and the vocals were absolutely phenomenal. He's already so good live, but when you give him that studio touch he has a voice I envy.
Honestly there's no way Neil (let alone Josh Radnor or Jason Segel) was ever gonna let a musical episode go buy without doing it justice.
Also as a fun fact: Neil and Jason were notorious for constantly quoting/performing Le Miserables together on and off set. You can find a clip of them doing it for a talk show or something on youtube and it's GOOD
Just a heads up. This is not the only song they’ve done. Look up. “Barney Stinson Christmas songs” “Puzzles theme song” “You just got slapped”. Would love to see you cover these. 😌
I'm just a strait man who's a fan of HIMYM and NPH !
Other than the obvious Riverdale various musicals episodes Supernatural and Legacies also both had a musical episode that served as "homage". Supernatural was the 200th episode special in season 10 and Legacies was basically a recap of Vampire Diaries early in their 3rd season. Both were actual school theater musical and not episodes where people start to sing randomly.
Ooh, I didn't realise Supernatural had a musical episode! I'll definitely be adding the to the list 😊 I am also planning on getting around to all of the Riverdale musical episodes, I feel like I am going to have a lot to say about them but I know heaps of people have reacted to them so I wanted to start off the series with shows that I haven't react to before.
@@AmieMariah_ Yeah it's not really in the typical tone of the show but it was a milestone episode (200th episode). The episode is called "Fan Fiction" and it's the 5th episode of season 10.
The songs are all original with the exception of the last one. It's a cover of "Carry on my Wayward Son" by Kansas which is the iconic theme of the show.
NPH won a tony for playing Hedwig and he is my second favorite hedwig after Darren Criss!Both super super talented guys i love them.
As a straight male, have nothing but love for Neil Patrick Harris, have been a big fan since I watched how I met your mother. Watched the show at least 10 times through
To answer your question, as a straight guy, yes I was totally aware of NPH's time on Broadway. Dude is awesome
how i met your mother has another musical number. It's called _Superdate._
Straight guy here, and yes, I'm very aware of Neil Patrick Harris' theater and musical background. In fact, if you want to see him in a very entertaining musical, look up Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog. It's a three part internet-only musical he did with Felicia Day and Nathan Fillion during the writer's guild strike back in the early 2010s. It's very quirky.
The actor who played Lilly in this also played Willow in “Buffy, the Vampire Slayer” and more specifically, their musical episode “Once More, with Feeling”. And she has said herself that she is not a strong singer, so they tried to give her small vocal parts that would be easy for her, as they did here.
The show “Magicians” had a sort of musical episode, and another episode with several songs in it, but if nothing else, you simply must hear the performance of “Under Pressure” (originally by Queen and David Bowie). The participants are in different places, where they each have their own problems going on, and they are linked by magic, with the song incorporating each location and moving smoothly between them for the different parts and then there are the places where they all sing together. It’s just so good. In fact, I think I need to go watch it again, right now.
Another thing I feel I should suggest: It’s not a musical episode, but there is an episode of “Doom Patrol” (a bizarre and delightful sort of superhero show) where the character Negative Man, whose powers cause him to have to be wrapped in a special bandaging the prevents his radiation from harming or killing those around him, is persuaded to sing, and it is fabulous! It helps that the actor, Matt Bomer, is an accomplished singer. I know it veers slightly off of “musical episodes” (as does this episode of “How I Met Your Mother”, to be honest), but it feels like it fits the essence of what you’re doing here. If nothing else, you should definitely watch it.
I just realized that poor Alison hates signing and in buffy wanted a very minor part and they keep putting her in musical numbers , There should be odds in what ever she acts in next having a musical number
Yeah, in Buffy, wasn’t one of her lines “this line is mostly filler?”
Phineas and Ferb's Musical episode: "Rollercoaster! The Musical"
Just came across these Musical Ranking videos after watching MANY reactions to Buffy. And yeah, straight male here. I've seen most, if not all, of his Tony Award show performances. He's awesome.
I do love a musical.
And if you weren't aware, his husband is also in HIMYM. He played the stalker of Lilly. Scooter, I think.
How about Joss/Zack/Zed Whedon's Dr.Horrible Sing Along Blog with NPH, Nathan Fillion and Felicia Day?
I already knew of NPH's broadway repertoire. But yes, when i learned that, my mind exploded
2:24 I could never make those heels work. The whole outfit is just *chef's kiss*
Yes, am a straight dude and know how amazing a broadway actor NPH is- 2013 Tony opening is legendary!
Glad you enjoyed the episode. yes, as a straight man, I have been aware of NPH and his Legen... (wait for it)...dary greatness for many years. ( if you think Barry is a crazy character for him to have played, He is even crazier in the Harold and Kumar movies)
Fun fact: Alyson Hannigan is in both this one (Lily) and the Buffy one (Willow)!
I love how she isn't the biggest fan of singing but she got roped into not one but two musical episodes in her career 😂
I'm straight, I give credit where credit is due. NPH is an amazing talent. I grew up around music with a very musical family. A chorus teacher nagging me to join chorus and theater because I'm a bass, but i enjoyed doing the lighting and special effect more than the performance side. NPH though, comedic talent, musical talent and a better than average magician. He's awesome. I loved Dr. Horrible's Sing-a-long.
Side note- I feel like Dr. Horrible should qualify for this list (or at least a reaction)
Straight white man here: I'm watching musical theatre videos, do you really think Hedwig surprises me XD ?
You should check out the Psych musical episode. It's the season seven finale, titled Psych: The Musical. It's a two-hour special musical episode
Straight guy here - NPH 2013 Tony opening is the best thing ever.
i knew nph was on broadway, but seeing him like that? Yeah mind blown
Musical specials are always some of my favorite episodes in sitcoms. You should react to the Scrubs musical special when you get the chance.
Also, wow I love your accent 😍
My mind was blown with that knowledge a few years ago. But it was nice to be reminded.
I didn't know, but I'm not surprised 😁
*SUIT UP!*
Jason Segal (Marshall) is actually a pretty strong singer for an actor who doesn't have a history of music. Obviously, most actors are going to pale next to NPH, but Jason Segal does have a history of singing on camera. Throughout the entire run of How I Met Your Mother, his little running gag is to sing dumb songs. Look up "Slapsgiving Song," for example.
He even sang a song in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, the movie he wrote. And there's a video of him somewhere of him and NPH singing a song from Les Mis together.
I think this is just one of those things where everyone looks terrible next to someone so talented. Case in point: watch the movie Gangs of New York, which features like six or seven Academy Award actors...and Cameron Diaz. Now, Cameron Diaz is a completely average actress at best, but when you put her next to all of these amazing actors, she is terrible. You can say the same thing with NPH singing around the cast of HIMYM.
Also, Alyson Hannigan was also in this and Buffy, and she didn't feel comfortable singing at all, so she asks the writers (specifically for Once More With Feeling) to limit her singing.
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. Season 2 episode 9 - Subspace Rhapsody - musical episode - AMAZING
there is also super-date and robin sparkles/dagger
The Flash, season 3, episode 17, Duet. Full on musical episode and the cast was made for it.
Please do Dr Horribles Sing Along Blog!? Another with Neil Patrick Harris
2:18 nah thats Jack Fantastic Barnys twin. true story
This song is on iTunes
I just arrived to this video, I knew Neil was a broadway actor but didn't know that performance, quite awesome!!! As Barney will say "Legen-wait for it-dary".
I know you're doing TV shows but I'd love to see your take on the Musical Repo! The Genetic Opera! Also Dr. Horrible's sing along blog!
You should watch the Batman: The Brave and The Bold episode with Music Meister.
He's played by NPH and the whole episode is a musical
this show has had a few songs through out its run
Gods how this show outright hypnotized a whole bunch of pimply faced young men to wear full piece suits in _stupid_ occasions. And who can blame 'em?
I can.
I am cringing internally so bad at all the times I went to Aldi's dressed like the funeral's handsomest grandson.
Amie!!! Haai :3
I hope you've been doing well! ^w^
I loved the vídeo, i can't wait for what's to come! ♥️
Thank you for all your support ❤
The rest of the main cast actually do have good musical moments in the show. Except for Alyson Hannigan who plays Lily.
Lmao poor Aly she’s not the best singer
Straight male, former theater kid:
Was I aware Neil Patrick Harris was a "kind of sort of a broad way icon?"
I knew he was respected within the theater community, though personally I think "icon"'s a strong word, but you do you.
Did I know he was both Barney Stinson and Hedwig?
No.
Did it blow my mind.
Not ... really.
I don't know how much of that is him or me, but I'm kind of "been there, done that" with seemingly straitlaced television/movie performers doing flamboyant musical numbers.
"Alan Cumming" in "Cabaret"
Tim Curry in "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" (who as far as rock singing drag queens go, casts a very long shadow).
Hell, Ursula in "The Little Mermaid" is patterned on a Drag Queen.
He's not bad, but I've seen this shtick before.
So Jason Segal (Marshall) sings You Just Got Slapped (the video has Neil doing back up lol) and Cobie Smulders (Robin) sings Let’s Go To The Mall, Sandcastles In The Sand and one other one) so if you want to hear their solos you should react to them :)
What about the puzzles theme song?
there is an interview where Jason Segel and NPH do a portion of the confrontation from Les Mis - you should check that out....keep up the great work!
I just watched this on netflix!!!
(Tell wadzee i said hi and I have all his merch)
Wah Wah Army represent! 💪🏻
@@AmieMariah_ yes!!!!
This was their 100th ep
They had to pull it all oit
If you've got a spare 2 hours I highly recommend Twisted by Starkids. Wicked by way of Disney's Aladdin. A terrible summary of the musical but the most basic form. Available for free in its entirety on TH-cam.
Hey, I really like your videos so far, but I'm confused about one thing. Why do people always say that Girls vs Suits is HIMYM's musical episode? HIMYM doesn't HAVE a musical episode, what they do have is multiple songs during the whole series (I would suggest watching the songs performed by Robin, played by Cobie Smulders, they are really fun :)). I just feel it's a bit unfair to compare this to actual musical episodes :/ what you could maybe do is take a few of HIMYM's songs and just put them together? I don't know, but I think that watching the other songs would be a good idea :p
Im not quite sure why straight men are not allowed to like music? And yes, I am pretty sure every person on this planet whos not brain dead knows that NPH is gay and a broadway icon...
Knowing NPH is homosexual, the Broadway parts are easy to see, him playing the womanizer on the show I think shows range so much more. Not sure if you've watched the series, but his husband is a recurring guest as well.
Could you, if you have never seen it/listened to it, maybe review ,,Elisabeth" the musical ?
(May sound odd, but it's an amazing austiran musical from the 90's)
Favourite NPH is Assassins.
I'm gonna say it. A blazer goes with every outfit (Well not PJ'S but otherwise) Seriously almost anything
I already knew, as a straight man
Now I understand. I come here from the Buffy musical. Which I left a couple of tiny comments on. Read tiny as the unhinged rantings of a mad man. I'm mostly sane though. It is nice to hear an Australian accent on here. I didn't go searching. The algorithm must've sensed I wished to hear a familiar speech pattern of a fellow land down underer after many, oh...so many Americans. I love musicals, and dancing and dancing within musicals and musicals about dancing and dance breaks in things that have nothing to do with either so this should be fun to the power of fun.
Also maybe you should do "More Than A Feeling" by Boston covered by the cast of Scrubs. It is just a lip sync clip though.
Scrubs is actually on my list! They have an entire musical episode in season 6 and unlike HIMYM there is more then one song
so not sure if its the video of the song or if you did it to avoid copyright but it was clearly adjusted since Neil's voice is a bit too high
Also in the *really* obscure musical episode category Neil Patrick Harris also featured as The Music Meister in The Return of the Music Meister episode of the animated Batman: Bold and Beautiful. Only five or so songs though.
Not to mention his much more famous supervillain role in Dr Horrible's Sing-a-long Blog as the titular villain. Which is definitely a must watch/listen. It was written and performed during the 2007 writer's strike, originally as a set of three webisodes. In addition to the DVD and obligatory soundtrack (all available electronically now), they also produced a special commentary soundtrack called Commentary! The Musical which is of course itself a musical version of the commentary about the show: th-cam.com/video/dMIUj_nRxoY/w-d-xo.html
We love an obscure musical! After watching the Flash musical episode Music Meister is now officially up there with some of my favourite super villians (and honestly a dream role) so I need to see this! Just wish me luck trawling through the internet to find it 😅
Didn't this episode have other songs?
Mind blown 🤯 😂😂
Late to comment (just discovered your channel) but pleeeeeeease could you react to Dr Horrible's Sing-Along Blog?? Pretty please?? NPH + Nathan Fillion = awesomeness...
im a boy but a kid does that count
My GF is in the Sugar Daddy video!
I'm thoroughly straight, barring the occasional thought about David Bowie or Idris Elba, and I've loved musicals since I was a kid. Please don't stereotype.
I have many straight friends who love theatre! I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend anyone. More so what I was getting at is I feel like there are many straight men who idolise the character Barney because he is such a womaniser. I was just curious to see how many of those people actually knew that NPH could also run circles around them in heels. I remember when I told my boyfriends friends this, it blew their minds.
@@AmieMariah_ As another straight man, I think anyone who idolizes Barney Stinson has some issues...
Straight guy here, nope. I love broadway and NPH is awesome
you should react to the greys anatomy musical episode
Hey! I just discovered you! Great video! I was just wondering: Do you know Starkid? If not, they are a musical theatre group who put their musicals on youtube for free. If you don't know them, you should definitely check them out!
Volume: about fkn -35
You should definitely react to NPH's and Jason Segel's version of "Confrontation" from Les Mis:
th-cam.com/video/EPZ4Z8B2B6M/w-d-xo.html
th-cam.com/video/9_taWJ4fOlY/w-d-xo.html
I wouldn't mind seeing Grey's Anatomy musical episode (season 7, episode 18)
hey, this is not my personal profile, but i'am a straight guy from brazil!! 2 year's late ;-)
and this is me ;-)
Muahhhhhh
South Park and fam guy have great musical eps 🙏🏼😂
is the song pitched up? sounds like it is lol
I didn't pitch it up but the original poster may have
Yes its pitched up for some reason from the original video
Legacies season 3 episode 3 was a musical episode
Oooh, I didn't have that one on my list! I'm definitely going to add it, thank you 😊
Really awesome , that was always my favorite episode .
Also the song is really fitting for Mads Mikkelsen's Hannibal Lecter 🤣
Here the proof, it's at the time stamp 6:01
th-cam.com/video/4zOFLBNmi0o/w-d-xo.html
Never in a million years would I have pictured this song being used for a cannibalistic physcopath but here we are... 😂
Psych musical episode
Am I a man or a muppet … he can sing. Just saying. :)
HIMYM dribbled the songs over more then one episode.... There is Nothing SUits me like a Suit, "Superdate" sung by Ted. Marshal vs the machine, YOu just got slapped sung by marshal. and a few other ones.
Amie, Scrubs 'My Musical' Season 6 Episode 6
It's on the list, don't you worry! 😊
@@AmieMariah_ Awesome! I love that episode, and show. Season 10 they coulda done without though.
Yeah I used to hold up NPH as a straight man icon, but he isn't. Oh well. He's still a great guy though.
Thank you for proving my point! Turns put he is just and incredibly talented, versatile actor 👌🏻
How long did it take you to learn he wasn't straight?
@@NoThankUBeQuiet About 2 minutes on wikipedia.
Helooo
Hello 👋🏻
Straight male chiming in. NPH is god! Not "a god," he is god!
