是你可能不知道的

And today we're counting down the top 10 things

今天我們要來倒數前十項

that you probably didn't know about How I Met Your Mother.

關於追愛總動員你可能不知道的事

Ready? Because here we go.

準備好了嗎？開始

Many of the cast significant others appeared as extras on the show.

許多演員的另一半都有以臨演的身份出現在劇中

But it's a little inside joke the significant others were only allowed to play bizarre characters.

但有個內梗是，這些演員的另一半只能演怪異的角色

For example, Alyson Hannigan's husband played the weird Newscaster, Sandy Rivers.

例如， Alyson Hannigan 的老公飾演一個奇怪的新聞播報員，叫做 Sandy Rivers

Cobie Smulders's husband appeared as Gary Blauman

Cobie Smulders 的老公飾演 Gary Blauman

and Neil Patrick Harris's husband played Scooter, Lily's high school boyfriend.

而 Neil Patrick Harris 的老公則飾演 Lily 的高中男友 Scooter

On-screen couple Lily and Marshall had a little bit of drama during filming.

螢幕情侶 Lily 和 Marshall 在拍攝時出了點小問題

Marshall was played by Jason Segel who had a smoking problem at the time of filming

飾演 Marshall 的 Jason Segel 在拍攝期間有菸癮

and Lily's actress Alyson Hannigan hated kissing seagal on screen

而飾演 Lily 的 Alyson Hannigan 很討厭在螢幕上親吻 Jason Segel

because it was like kissing an ashtray.

因為那感覺就像在親煙灰缸

Segal managed to quit for a year, but eventually picked the habit back up.

Segal 曾試圖戒菸一年，但最後還是重拾舊習

The original cast of the show look very different from what we know today.

本劇原先計畫的卡司和現在我們所知的非常不一樣

Originally Scott Foley was planned to play Ted

原先計劃由 Scott Foley 來演 Ted

and Jennifer Love Hewitt was planned to play Robin.

然後由 Jennifer Love Hewitt 來演 Robin

(S)he would eventually turn down the role

但最後 Jennifer 推掉了這個角色

so she could be on the new CBS show "Ghost Whisperer"

好去參演 CBS 電視網上的新戲「靈感應」

which unfortunately didn't go too well for.

但結果並沒有如預期的好

There was a lot of confusion around the character Stella.

Stella 這個角色當初引起了一些騷動

Pop star Britney Spears had expressed interest in being on the show

流行天后 Britney Spears 表示她有興趣參演本劇

but the producers were actually worried that Spears would want to play Stella,

但製作人很擔心她會想演 Stella

a character that they had big plans for and did not want Spears to play.

那是一個他們想賦予重責大任的角色，而他們不希望由 Spears 來飾演

Luckily, Spears was more interested in playing Stella's receptionist, Abby.

幸運的是，Spears 對 Stella 的接待員 Abby 這個角色反而更有興趣

The episode that Britney Spears appeared on, titled Ten Sessions, went on to be the most popular episode of the time

Britney Spears 出現的那集成為了最受歡迎的一集，而那集名稱叫十個療程

and ended up saving the show from cancellation.

並且讓本劇免於被砍

Stella was then planned to be played by Alicia Silverstone.

Stella 這個角色本來是想讓 Alicia Silverstone 來演

But after Spears was recruited to play stella's receptionist,

但在 Spears 被招募飾演 Stella 的接待員後

Silverstone's representatives made her pull out of the show

Silverstone 的代表人要她從本劇退出

in fear that her performance would be overshadowed by Britney Spears.

深怕她的表現會被 Britney Spears 的光芒掩蓋過去

Eventually Sarah Clarke was signed on to play Stella,

最後由 Sarah Clarke 被簽下飾演 Stella

and she ended up being the great final choice.

而她也成為完美的最終人選

Penny and Luke had to film their scenes at the end of the show nine years early.

Penny 和 Luke 必須在九年前就先拍好他們在本劇結局中的畫面

Fearing that the kids would go through puberty before the ending of the show,

擔心在本劇結束前，小孩會進入青春期

the crew had to film Penny and Luke scenes in the finale

劇組必須在第一季的時候

all the way back during season one of the show.

就先把 Penny 和 Luke 在劇終的畫面給拍好

The two kids even had to sign a confidentiality contract which of course they honored.

這兩個小孩甚至得簽署一份保密合約，但他們當然感到很榮幸

And nine years later the world got to see the scenes

而九年後，全世界終於能看到

that the kids shot all the way back in season one.

他們在第一季時就已經拍好的畫面

Most sitcoms are recorded in front of a live studio audience.

大部分的情境喜劇都是在現場攝影棚的觀眾面前錄製的

But the pilot episode of How I Met Your Mother was actually recorded in a regular studio without an audience.

但是本劇的試播集則是在一般的攝影棚錄製，並沒有觀眾在現場

In fact the pilot episode took a whole three days to film

事實上，試播集花了整整三天來拍攝

as there were far more scenes in the production team expected.

因為要拍的鏡頭比製作團隊原先預期的還要多很多

Once the episode was finally finished, it was shown into an audience

試播集一經完成，便於播出前播放給觀眾看

whose laughter was recorded and added to the sound mix of the pilot before aired.

然後把他們的笑聲錄製並加進此集中

Did you know that Conan O'Brien actually appeared on the show?

你們知道 Conan O'Brien 其實有出現在本劇中過嗎？

But he didn't appear in the way you might think.

但他並不是以你們可能認為的方式現身

You probably expect someone of Conan's caliber to have a lead role.

你們大概預期像 Conan 這樣有才華的人會得到一個主要角色

But believe it or not, Conan actually entered a charity auction to be an extra on the show and won.

但信不信由你，Conan 事實上參加了一個慈善拍賣，競標成為本劇的臨演並得標了

After winning the auction, the producers of How I Met Your Mother wanted to give Conan a larger part

在拍賣得標後，追愛總動員的製作人想要給 Conan 一個比較大的角色

but O'Brien declined the offer.

但 O'Brien 拒絕了

Thinking that it would be much funnier if he was just somewhere in the background,

他認為如果只出現在背景畫面中反而會顯得更有趣

so on the episode "No Pressure" Conan appears in the background as a regular extra.

所以在「沒有壓力」那集中，Conan 以一般的臨演身份出現在背景畫面中

The gang likes to hang out at the bar Maclaren's.

主角一夥人喜歡在 MacLaren's 酒吧中打發時間

But there's more real about this bar than you probably know.

但這個酒吧可能比你知道的還更真實

The name comes from Carl McLaren

它的名字來自於 Carl McLaren

who worked as an assistant to the producers of the show for two years before How I Met Your Mother started production.

一個在追愛總動員開始製作前，曾擔任本劇製作人的助理兩年的人

The actual bar is based on a New York City bar called McGee's

這酒吧是以一間位於紐約市叫 McGee's 的酒吧作為根據

where the producers hung out while working on their previous show "Letterman" (Late Show with David Letterman).

本劇製作人當年還在「大衛深夜秀」工作時常常在那間酒吧消磨時間

Did you know that there was a real proposal on the set of the show?

你們知道在本劇片場中是真的有過一場求婚嗎？

During the filming of the season two finale,

第二季最後一集在拍攝時，

one of the extras in the restaurant scene Timothy Russo proposed to a fellow extra Janna Rügen.

餐廳場景中的其中一位臨演 Timothy Russo 向另一位臨演 Janna Rügen 求婚

Russo's Brother's friends was one of the writers for the show and managed to help organize the entire thing.

Russo 的哥哥的朋友是本劇的其中一位編劇，他幫忙策劃了這整場求婚

Perhaps the most memorable character on the show is of course Barney played by the legendary Neil Patrick Harris.

本劇中最有記憶點的角色就是 Barney 了，由赫赫有名的 Neil Patrick Harris 飾演

But did you know that Neil wasn't actually the first choice for the character?

但你們知道其實一開始 Neil 並不是第一人選嗎？

Barney was originally supposed to be played by Jim Parsons who many know is Sheldon on the Big Bang Theory.

Barney 原先應由 Jim Parsons 來演，也就是「宅男行不行」中大家熟悉的 Sheldon

However, had auditioned for the show, Parsons was beat out by Harris for the role

然而，儘管 Parsons 面試了本劇，Harris 還是打敗了他且贏得角色

and a good thing he did. If things had gone differently,

而這是件好事。如果事情的發展不是這樣

Barney would not be the character we know and love today

Barney 就不會是我們現在熟知並喜愛的那個角色

and the Big Bang Theory likely wouldn't have Jim Parsons as Sheldon.

而「宅男行不行」中的 Sheldon 也很可能不會是 Jim Parsons 了

So we'll just call it a happy incident.

所以我們就把這稱之為美好的插曲吧
