It’s a new week. There are five whole days between you and the weeknd. But not to fret. There’re plenty treats along the way to keep your spirits high, some of which will even brighten up this lonesome and grueling Monday. So keep your chins up, because when you get home, sink into your couch and turn on your television, all your problems will fade away.

“How I Met Your Mother” is winding down to its anticipated series finale where the show’s underlying secrets will be revealed. Throughout the ninth and final season, each character is introduced to the Mother one by one over the course of Barney and Robin’s long wedding weekend. New and old faces alike are returning for their final moments to tie up all remaining loose ends.

Much to fans delight, James Van Der Beek will be reprising his role as Robin’s ex-boyfriend, Simon, later on in the season. Van Der Beek broke the news on his Twitter over the weekend. “Like many Americans, I’m working 2 jobs today. Luckily, neither one requires actual work ;) #FWBL #HIMYM” Thanks a bunch. That’s really helping us cope with the long week ahead.

In tonight’s episode, Ted is on the prowl to find his perfect wedding date, and with Anna Camp from “True Blood” guest starring, he may find a potential match. Here’s the official synopsis. “When Ted finds himself with three prospects to be his date for the wedding weekend, he chooses poorly. Meanwhile, Barney and Robin have a confrontation with their minister, and Marshall learns more about his driving companion, Daphne.”

Watch tonight’s episode of “How I Met Your Mother,” titled “Knight Vision” tonight at 8 p.m. on CBS.
