The creators of the CBS show How I Met Your Mother are once again turning to MySpace to save the show from falling ratings and an uncertain future, reports the New York Times.

Ratings were tanking for the critically acclaimed show in November when an episode featured a MySpace page for Robin Sparkles, the kiddie-pop persona adopted in the mid-'80s by one of the characters on the show, Robin Scherbatsky. The MySpace page, featured in the Nov. 20 episode, was real - and the ratings went up as people became newly aware of the show via the social-networking site.

Now, with ratings once again falling and rumors that the show may be pulled, the creative team is again hoping online holds the key to salvation.

Monday night's episode involved the narrator recounting the events of a bachelor party. But additional footage deemed too racy for TV will be available online - with the hope that word will spread and ratings lightning will strike once again for the show.
