Russian How I Met Your Mother

This post is for all How I Met Your Mother fans and my fellow russian students. For those of you who are not that into HIMYM it is fun too.

First of all I am pretty sure everybody at least knows what HIMYM is... And now I am happy to announce that a small russian TV-Channel has made a hilarious low-budget remake from our favourite TV-Series. In the russian version our five friends Ted, Marshall, Lilly, Robin and Barney turned into Dmitri, Pawel, Lucy, Katja und Jura who no longer live in New York but in Moskau. The Bar they spent most of their time in and the upstairs apartment look a lot like the original. Even the camera angles seem similar if not the same. The script follows an exact translation from the english version with a few jokes that had to be addapted. Thanks to working together very closely with the producer of the original series the costumes, accessoires and furniture look very alike. All in all, even without speaking russian fluently it is possible to follow "kak ya vstretil vaschu mamu" if you know the original. And more than anything else it is great fun. See yourself!


For those who would like to have a closer look on this, here is a link where you can watch "kak ya vstretil vaschu mamu" online. Have fun!
