A Note About Bingo: HIMYM Board Added!

I have TV bingo fever! Thanks to the highly successful Hawaii 5-0 Bingo board, I've taken to making my own boards to hammer out the predictable (and loveable events of each episode). Today's post is on How I Met Your Mother. Over the last two weeks of HIMYM watching, I was happy to say the standard 5 x 5 (if you were just thinking I was making a Buffy reference, two points for you!) board was just not enough. Plus, in honor of Robin's new boytoy, Kal Pen, TMA on Hulu shares a list of her greatest boyfriends . So after the episode, I had to make a bigger board, 6 x 6 (not symmetrical, but nice)! I can't wait to play tonight! See categories below:

This is the original 5x5 board: Oct 10, 2011

A Note About Blue Bloods: I Made A Bingo Card!

After the continued success of Hawaii 5-0 Bingo, I have decided to launch my own series of tv show bingo boards to better outline the formulas that consistently make them work and keep me coming back to watch again. This week, I've got BLUE BLOODS BINGO. Enjoy!

I couldn't resist it, I had to make a bingo board for The Good Wife. At the time I went to press, I was missing one remaining B5 spot. I will have a piece by next week's episode!
