Jason Segel might want to look into joining co-star Neil Patrick Harris on Broadway now that How I Met Your Mother has ended.

A far cry from their goofier HIMYM counterparts, Harris and Segel slip into the formidable roles of Inspector Javert and Jean Val Jean as if they played the dramatic characters for years. Fellow cast members Alyson Hannigan, Cobie Smulders and Josh Radnor joined the duo onstage and, likely from past experiences, knew to steer clear when the song reaches its chaotic peak.

We're still feeling a little misérable about the finale, but this helps.
