Vintage Geek: Doogie Howser, Blogger

Feb 04, 2008 - At the risk of dating myself, I'm just going to put it out there that I was a huge Doogie Howser, MD fan. In fact, I couldn't have been more ecstatic a few years ago when Neil Patrick Harris made a triumphant comeback with Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle, which of course led to his awesome role as Barney Stinson on How I Met Your Mother. I watch NPH on HIMYM — a slick, chic geek with his iPhone — and then I remember that this is not the first time he's showcased his onscreen geekiness. - 12 Comments

How I Met Your Mother and Her Geeky Friends!

May 05, 2008 - If I wanted to, I could probably do a TV tech quiz for How I Met Your Mother — you wouldn't think, but this ensemble of friends in NYC is pretty wired — especially my favorite character, Barney. I've Ioved NPH since Doogie Howser, MD, and as Barney I love him more — he's got an iPhone, a MacBook Pro — and talks in tech (and text) speak 24/7! A little bit creep but a lot of geek, Barney killed me in this clip from last week's episode after a scandalous romp with Ted's ex-girlfriend Robin. - 8 Comments

New geeksugar Group: Vintage Geek!

Feb 20, 2008 - I've been getting really giddy lately when I watch movies I've grown up with, and see the old technology that was hot at that time. I highlighted old Apple IIs and some goofy faux gadgets from Back to the Future 2, Doogie Howser's geeky 80's blogging, and some fabulous old ads. I am even pretty sure I saw my current crush Paul Rudd's Nintendo commercial when it originally aired! - 8 Comments
