Look for Brad and his big muscles to show up in How I Met Your Mother‘s eighth season, to butt heads with Marshall in court!

True Blood‘s Joe Manganiello has made several appearances over the past seven seasons of How I Met Your Mother as Brad, Marshall’s lawyer friend (and sometimes brunch partner) and Robin’s semi-love interest.

And it looks like we’ll see him again in season 8! E! Online reports that Marshall won’t be glad to see his old friend again, as they’ll square off in court. And it’ll prove a real challenge to Marshall, “considering the judge and jury are pretty into Brad’s physique.” Well, that’s nothing new!

Are you looking forward to seeing Manganiello back on How I Met Your Mother? It’ll be great to see a Marshall-centric storyline that hasn’t got anything to do with Lily and the new baby, and it will be a nice change of pace too from the romance-centric plotlines that’ll be going on with Ted and Victoria, and Barney and Robin and their respective partners.

What did you think about last night’s episode of How I Met Your Mother, “The Pre-Nup”? It was sadly the end of Quinn and Barney, and we have to admit, we’re gonna miss her!
