The Ausiello Files has reported How I Met Your Mother has been renewed for a sixth season!

That noise you hear? It’s the sound of me excitedly removing How I Met Your Mother from my preliminary (and not-yet-published) 2010 Bubble Show Scorecard. Sources confirm that CBS has officially picked the show up for a sixth season!

From “How I Met Your Mother’s” 100th episode, the musical number “Nothing Suits Me Like a Suit” is now available on iTunes to purchase. Also available is the musical number video in high definition. So open your iTunes and purchase the track so you can listen to it over and over again!

Ask Ausiello posted a “How I Met Your Mother” spoiler:

Question: I thought the HIMYM smoking episode was hilarious, but does Alyson Hannigan really smoke? —Joe
Ausiello: In a word, God, no! (Okay, two words.) “The smoking episode was horrible to shoot,” says the actress. “It was a funny script, but faking all that smoking was murder on my throat and eyes. They were fake cigarettes, but it was still really gross to us non-smokers.” More appealing to Hannigan is the idea of giving Lily and Marshall a baby. “I actually wouldn’t mind being pregnant on the show at some point,” she says. “And I think these characters are getting to an age where that just starts happening naturally. But it would certainly hinder the bar scenes. Pregnant woman in the bar drinking? Not so [funny]. Then the baby would get there and we’d have to figure out what to do with it all the time. It would separate Lily and Marshall from the group too much [which] would interrupt the camaraderie, which is the cornerstone of HIMYM. So I think, in the end that is what is truly stalling the baby. But if we get enough seasons, it would have to happen eventually.”

Just as Ted Mosby has grown while telling his children the story of how he met their mother, so has CBS’ “How I Met Your Mother.” Gathered Thursday night at the Paley Center for Media in Beverly Hills to celebrate “Mother’s” 100th episode, stars Josh Radnor (Ted), Jason Segel (Marshall), Cobie Smulders (Robin), Neil Patrick Harris (Barney) and Alyson Hannigan (Lily) as well as executive producers/co-creators Carter Bays and Craig Thomas and executive producer/director Pamela Fryman shared several stories, including how the cast genuinely click as friends.

Starting with when Hannigan crossed paths with friend Harris during network auditions for “Mother,” the cast treated the packed house with a hint of what a day on their set would be like — “We’ll just spend hours doing cat puns,” Hannigan said. From that point forward, no response was sacred as “litter,” “paws,” “catamarans,” “purr-fect” and more were all worked into the conversation.

Topics bounced around the panel like the random yet serialized nature of the show and included Bays’ reveal that series lothario Barney Stinson was initially envisioned as a large “John Belushi-type” until Harris walked in. The role of Lily Eriksen, however, was always meant for Hannigan, who spent six seasons playing Willow on Joss Whedon’s “Buffy the Vampire Slayer.”

As for when Ted will — finally — meet the mother, Thomas was coy:

“We always feel like a Bush-era secretary when asked that question,” he joked.

“We like the idea that he doesn’t have a kid yet but he’s already a dad,” Bays added.

“If we keep waiting, science will catch up and there’s no reason that Marshall won’t be the mother,” Segel joked.

“How I Met Your Mother’s” 100th episode airs Monday.

How I Met Your Mother star Alyson Hannigan wants Jennifer Aniston to make a cameo on the show. Hannigan, 35, plays the character Lily Aldrin in the CBS TV series and country singer Carrie Underwood will soon be making an appearance.

But Hannigan, who is famous for starring in the American Pie movie series, wants Jennifer Aniston to guest-star. Talking about Aniston making a cameo, she said: ‘I’m going to put that out there!’

Her co-star Cobie Smulders added whom she would like to make a cameo: ‘If Meryl’s free, that’d be nice.’

I would like to give a big congratulations to “How I Met Your Mother” star, Alyson Hannigan on her “Best Actress Comedy” win tonight at the 2010 People’s Choice Awards. After her win, Alyson tweeted:

Unfortunately, both Neil Patrick Harris (Best Actor Comedy) and “How I Met Your Mother” (Best Show Comedy) did not win tonight.

t’s been a winter of milestones for Carrie Underwood. First, the country singer got engaged to Canadian hockey player Mike Fisher. Next, she will make her acting debut on an upcoming episode of How I Met Your Mother. Underwood will play Tiffany, an enigmatic pharmaceutical sales rep and love interest for Ted (played by Josh Radnor), in an episode scheduled to air in March.

The CBS comedy series celebrates its 100th episode on Jan. 11, when Stacy Keibler will join the show as a guest. That milestone will also mark the beginning of a guest arch for Rachel Bilson, who may or may not be The One.
