A new clip from How I Met Your Fatherseason 1, episode 8 properly introduces Jesse's ex Meredith, played by Gossip Girl alum Leighton Meester. Though there was some apprehension when How I Met Your Father was first announced, the series has gradually found its footing over the course of its first season to truly stand apart from its predecessor.

Kim Cattrall plays the Sophie of 2050.

Meester, best known for playing Blair Waldorf on Gossip Girl, put in a small appearance in the How I Met Your Father pilot.
