Hitting the right note: Best musical moments in TV


Tonight How I Met Your Mother will celebrate it's 100th episode with at least one full musical number. It promises to be a hit with professional song and dance man Neil Patrick Harris rounding out the talented cast.

The show has already dipped into the genre on several occasions while exploring Robin's past as Canadian teen pop star Robin Sparkles. Jason Segal has also had a few chances to express himself via song including a very moving ode to slaps.



In honour of this very special musical episode of How I Met Your Mother both Slate and TWOP have composed lists of some great musical television moments.

Slate's video slide show "How I Serenaded Your Mother" provides four examples of television musicals at their best. One the list is; Oz, That 70s Show, Scrubs and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Click here to see the video and find out why these are the best.

TWOP lists their favourite TV musical moments to prep for tonight's How I Met Your Mother. Click here to find out their favourites and how they stood out from the many, many musical numbers to choose from.

Check out these lists then watch How I Met Your Mother's musical 100th episode tonight at 8pm on CBS and see how it stacks up!
