‘How I Met Your Mother’: CBS orders additional episodes

CBS has added two more episodes to “How I Met Your Mother’s” current season order, the network confirms.

The series will produce 24 half-hour episodes, the same number it did in its previous two seasons.

It looks like fans (and Ted’s kids) will have to wait a bit longer to find out the conclusion of this story, at least for this season. Until then, there’s the debut of Jennifer Morrison (“House”) to look forward to next week as Zoey, “a hot girl who’s passionate about saving the landmark building that is being torn down to make room for” Ted’s (Josh Radnor) new building.

“Mother” has lined up several other guest stars for its sixth and current season, including Jorge Garcia (“Lost”), Will Forte (“Saturday Night Live”), Kyle MacLachlan (“Desperate Housewives”) and Nicole Scherzinger (of the Pussycat Dolls) for the much-anticipated Robin Sparkles episode.

Readers, are you happy to get some more “HIMYM” this season?
