Keck's Exclusives: How I Met Your Mother Welcomes Wayne Brady and Ben Vereen

Wayne Brady, Ben Vereen

The second Season 6 episode of CBS's How I Met Your Mother will see the return of Wayne Brady as James Stinson — the gay, black brother of Barney (Neil Patrick Harris). Wayne, who also hosts CBS's Let's Make A Deal, first introduced the character in 2006, and returned for a second episode in 2007.

This time, James will be bringing along his dad, played by Ben Vereen (Silk StalkingsWebster). Since Ben, Wayne and Neil are all song and dance men, I can't imagine the show not utilizing their talents for some kind of colorful production number.
