The 2015 WGA Awards were handed out last night and the field of winners seems to be raising the least amount of snub talk this awards season.

CBS Passes on How I Met Your Dad with Greta Gerwig

It seems like most networks are trying to make their version of How I Met Your Mother this season and, surprisingly, the direct spin-off, How I Met Your Dad with Greta Gerwig won’t be one version that will make it to series.

CBS has passed on the show and it is currently being shopped around. It’s possible, but it would be hard to imagine that this wouldn’t get picked up somewhere.

Greta Gerwig to Star In CBS Spin-Off Pilot of How I Met Your Mother

How I Met Your Dad, a spin off of CBS hit sitcom How I Met Your Mother, will indeed star as well as be produced and even written by indie comedy darling Greta Gerwig.

No word on whether they will have her dancing and a few episodes tastefully done in black and white, but if this gets picked up with her current level on involvement, this could be great.
