 | Upfront and Personal Audience is still mourning smart shows like Buffy, maybe Alyson's new show might bring back your smile. |

A Slate colleague recently wrote me: "When, for the love of all that is holy, and wholly watchable, will we get a show to replace Buffy?" If by that she means a smart show with an irreverent take on paranormal gal-power, we've already got it, in my opinion: Medium. But if she just wants another chance to ogle Willow, there's always How I Met Your Mother, a CBS fall sitcom that will feature the Buffy alumna Alyson Hannigan. This show's convoluted premise is that a middle-aged man (Neil Patrick Harris) recounts his courtship to his children in flashback. In addition to the prospect of Doogie Howser (see above) in age makeup, this show also boasts a voiceover by Full House's Bob Saget, with whom I've become obsessed since this incredibly filthy profile of him appeared in the New York Observer.
