'How I Met Your Mother' Gets Early Renewal The Wrap

One day after giving creators Carter Bays and Craig Thomas a lucrative new deal to develop a new situation comedy, CBS has given their hit "How I Met Your Mother" an early renewal for a sixth season, according to The Wrap.

In previous years, CBS has waited till much later in the spring before renewing "Mother," so this action is a sign that the network is very happy with the Monday comedy.
