Where Are They Now? The Cast of “How I Met Your Mother”

Joe Nieves, Then

Joe Nieves played Carl the bartender and possible owner of the gang’s go-to neighborhood bar MacLaren’s Pub. Nieves had been acting in a variety of shows and films since the mid 90’s, mostly playing bit roles. He had an arc on “24” and played a character on the short lived “Day Break,” but Carl was possibly his most famous role.
