    I think Barney's evolution mostly came about from my falling in love with Coby Smulders. Barney, just say it. I think I'm in love with Robin. We knew that Robin wasn't the one in the pilot episode. He says, that's why I met your Aunt Bar- Aunt Robin. So I was like, wait a second. She's so talented and hot and funny and Canadian. Already, that's four stars. She's just amazing. So I started flirting with her as much as I could on camera. And that Barney could do all of that. I just was kind of like, had a talent crush on Kobe. They sort of saw our chemistry change. And then that shifted Barney into being more single-minded and really honoring the notion of changing who he is and changing his ways as much as he was able.
