&lt;h2&gt;Plus A Mid-Episode Post-Credits Scene Discussion.&lt;/h2&gt;
This week, Katey, Patches, Da7e and David convened on Sunday to discuss the How I Met Your Mother finale and how this filmed-in-LA sitcom about friends in New York closed out it&#039;s 9 Season run. Then, David wants to talk about just how much critics are supposed to plug into the greater cultural zeitgeist, wondering if it&#039;s irresponsible for any serious critic to have, say, NOT seen &lt;em&gt;The Avengers&lt;/em&gt;. That plus real American heroes and a brief discussion of Marvel&#039;s credits scenes inspired by &lt;em&gt;Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier&lt;/em&gt;.
