After being cast in an episode of the sitcom How I Met Your Mother, 4-foot, 6-inch-tall actor Craig Holsapple was assured Monday that the role would treat his height matter-of-factly and not in any way that would be degrading. 'You'll be playing a doctor, all very professional and respectable, and after Neil Patrick Harriswho is your patient, and he's your patient because he wants the best doctor, mind youanyway, after Neil says something about the tall blond nurse, you get angry at him because she's your wife,' executive producer Carter Bays told Holsapple, who remained absolutely silent throughout the meeting. 'Trust me, it has nothing to do with your height. The part pays $1,800.' Holsapple was also assured that 'normal-size' doctors were thrown through windows all the time and that, in any case, 'a tiny little mannequin' would be used for that shot.
