In his SiriusXM interview, Biggs said the How I Met Your Mother script was “definitely original and funny”, adding: “I was right for it, but I passed on it.
Biggs then “spent four years trying to get a show made”, during which time How I Met Your Mother was “blowing up to be this massive show”.
He said he and his former American Pie co-star Alyson Hannigan, who played Lily Aldrin in How I Met Your Mother, have never discussed the topic together and he “[doesn’t] know if she knows” he turned down a part in the sitcom.
