If your favorite part of HIMYM is the male camaraderie (particularly the slap bet and the man-on-man razzing), check out The League. There's more testosterone in The League, but don't you need that after watching Ted fall in love so many times?

New Girl is the next best thing to How I Met Your Mother when it comes to guy/girl friendships that are full of hilarity. And like HIMYM, it rings true when the girls and guys can't exactly stay platonic.

If what you like about HIMYM is the goofy ensemble, it doesn't get any goofier than 30 Rock. It comes close to matching the amount of running gags, too.

Do you feel like you belong to the big gang of friends on HIMYM? Then go back to the '70s to rediscover this already-classic show and do some hanging out, the most important activity there is.
