The cast of How I Met Your Mother recently taped an episode of Inside the Actors Studio, and James Lipton did the thing where he asks to talk to the characters — even though these people are actors who do not create nor write what these characters say. Ask those questions on Inside the Writers Studio, James! When he asked to talk to Lily (Alyson Hannigan) and Robin (Cobie Smulders), the two reportedly made out, but when he asked to talk to Ted and Barney, things were less smoochy and more pedantic.
