CBS’ How I Met Your Mother spinoff How I Met Your Dad is making a casting change. Actress-singer Krysta Rodriguez, who was to play one of the leads, is departing the hybrid pilot. In the vein of the original series, HIMYD tells the story from a female point of view, that of Sally (Greta Gerwig), and revolves around a new group of friends in New York. Rodriguez was to play Sally’s best friend Juliet, a sexy, flamboyant force of nature who runs the most successful fashion blog in the country. The character has undergone changes after the table read. How I Met Your Dad‘s three male leads are played by Drew Tarver, Nick D’Agosto and Andrew Santino. The pilot, from 20th TV, was written by Emily Spivey and HIMYM creators Carter Bays and Craig Thomas. Rob Greenberg is directing.

ReplyDeleteThis is a little too much, nothing can replace the Legend 'what for it' Ary show How I Met Your Mother!
ReplyDeleteI really wanted her to be in this show I was looking forward to seeing her back on TV again. I'm sad it didn't work out but it does happen I just hope the series is good cause I really don't want to get my hopes up when the show premieres.
ReplyDeleteYeah! I was just thinking the same.
ReplyDeleteCrossing fingers ;)
I still want to see First Date the musical, though it was Zach Levi and not her that drew me to watching it.
ReplyDeleteI came here to post the same thing haha. I want her on this show so badly.
ReplyDeleteMe 2! *_* Eliza would be my reason to stick with it.
ReplyDeleteIt also happened with another spin-off of a popular sitcom - Joey! Whoops!
ReplyDeleteNothing to miss yet. I still don't want this to happen.
ReplyDeletestop with this Joey! this HIMYD isn't a spin-off,they are new characters! and also,HIMYM was 100 times better than Friends
