A little piece of web junk to tide over How I Met Your Mother fans until the new season: Neil Patrick Harris as the “shoe fairy” on a future episode of Sesame Street, via YouTube.

I’m wrapping up a busy week, but in the upcoming days on Mentos and Manatees, we’ll get caught up onthe Summer Movie Suicide Mission with reviews of Wanted, Meet Dave, Mamma Mia!, and The Dark Knight. Plus, we’ll take a look at the outstanding new HBO mini Generation Kill, and see what’s up with the Madison Avenue crowd on the new season of Mad Men.

Thanks for the huge response to the movie list this week. I’d like to make Let’s Play a Game a regular feature. Any suggestions for tedious list making exercises are more than welcome. Now let’s all have a nice weekend.
