BuzzSugar did an interview with Jason Segel at the Winter TCA. Mostly they talked about the Muppet movie that he is filming right now but they also touched on the How I Met Your Mother episode that left me in tears last week. If you are a HIMYM fan and you haven't seen the "Bad News" episode yet then stop reading. Go to Hulu. And watch it. Then come back and finish reading this. If you did see it, you might find this interesting:
You said you found out about the scene [where Marshall learns his father has died] the day of. How do you think that affected your performance and your scene with Alyson [Hannigan], whose character gives yours the news?
JS: It was great, and I didn't want to know her lines. I didn't want to know what she was going to say to me when she got out of the cab. So until she got out of that cab . . . We literally did one take, which was so brave of our director. I had no idea what she was going to say to me. I knew the overall premise, but she came out, and she was already crying, and it was so heartbreaking. It made acting very easy. All I had to do was react in that scene. I didn't have to dig very deep.
