Britney Spears Earns HIMYM Its Highest Rating Ever

March 25, 2008

Britney Spears’s return to television has scored big with some critics — and in the ratings.

Monday’s episode of How I Met Your Mother featuring the pop star earned the CBS comedy its highest rating ever — netting a 4.5 preliminary rating among adults 18-49, according to the Hollywood Reporter. That means about 10.7 million viewers tuned in to watch Spears, making Mother the fourth-highest-rated show of the evening.

On the sitcom, Spears played a receptionist at a dermatologist’s office who develops a crush on a patient played by Josh Radnor. See a clip from Spears’s performance here.

I thought she was great and funny!!!… In her earlier years she was a teen icon and a great singer and performer but i think she has had her day and should consider a career in acting because was super on the show…

It was pretty painful to watch. Overacting 101. But then, I’m not too impressed with the show in and of itself. Kudos for Spears though on doing the show and getting her life back together.

Rachel March 25th, 2008

It’s about time she is doing something positive with her life. Hopefully she can stay on this track. Way to go!!

Sharon March 25th, 2008

I am so proud of Brit, I can’t wait to see her on top again. GO BRITTNEY!
