And besides the billboards promoting "HIMYM" (with NPH on them), they have billboards with Amy Poehler's picture promoting "Parks and Rec" reruns--but I believe that the OTA Tribune stations are picking this show up as well, which is strange considering that they're burying "30 Rock" in late-night time slots on WGN Chicago in favor of two eps of "2.5 Men" back-to-back at 6 p.m. (against a double pump of "The Simpsons" on WFLD, "Big Bang Theory" on WPWR--Chuck Lorre competing with himself!--and "omg! Insider" and Tyler Perry Model-without-Tyler Perry "Are We There Yet?" on WCIU).
