It wasn’t tough for Britney Spears to decide to reprise her role as ditzy receptionist Abby on CBS’ How I Met Your Mother.

“I had such a great experience the last time I was on the show that I couldn’t wait to come back,” the singer said in a statement Monday. “I was really looking forward to working with this cast and crew again.

“Everyone was so nice,” she added. “Abby is going to have a lot of fun!”

This time around, Spears’ lovable but ditzy Abby no longer pines for Ted (Josh Radnor). She falls for Barney (Neil Patrick Harris).

According to a CBS release, the “couple” — who don matching V-neck baby blue sweaters — go to the show’s local hangout bar to “flaunt their new relationship in Ted’s face.”

This is one of our personal favorite television shows (besides The Office), and we thought Britney did a great job the last time she was on the show. We can’t wait to see what Abby and Barney get themselves into!
