Ted has to be the worst lead in TV history.

I've only seen the show in a random order when E4 put double bills on, but my goodness is he whiny and self centred and cheesy and just bloody awful.

I hated Jack in Lost but Ted Mosby is 100 times worse.

Sheldon Cooper or Barney Stinson, who's worse?

How far did you get? You know how big a Dexter fan I was and God did they ruin it in that last Season and most especially the final episode.........although it is worth watching because you won't actually believe how they end it, it is unpredictable I'll give it that much atleast

you must be joking
the only one in HIMYM that can be compared to the awfulness that is sheldon cooper is probably lily the bitch

[Me. I Am Salman]

I had no idea this show has been on since 2005

[Iceman]

Anyone who didnt see the end coming is a ****tard.....anyway im happy with it. Good ending to a show that lasted 2 years too long.

[Kate!]

[Iceman]

[Kate!]

it's a bit daft then

[Ramsay]

**** the writers in the face. i'm so angry right now. another show ruined **** everything

[BBfanUSA]

Other things that happened

Spoiler:

Robin and Barney got a divorce shortly after getting married.

in 2018. Marshall announces his canidacy for the Ny State supreme court. The Mother and Ted get married as well on the day Marshall announces it. Then Lilly and Marshall learn they're going to have a third kid. They decide to move out of the apartment because there's no more room. But before they do, they have one more Halloween party. The Whole Group attends. Robin shows up for a little bit and decides to leave the group because she realizes she should've been with Ted and she can't look at Barney and his bachelor lifestyle.

Barney around 2022 tries the perfect month (in reference to the perfect week) and the last one he bangs gets pregnant. It's a baby girl.

After Barney does become a father, he stops his bachelor lifestyle.

Mother becomes ill. Turns out she died in 2024. There's no tragic scene in that regard other than he and Ted in the hospital.

In the year 2030, the kids says "That wasn't really a story about our mother, You're suppresing your feelings about Aunt Robin." and they suggest that Ted should get back with Robin. Saying it's been Six years since Mother died, she wouldnt mind.

So Ted makes his way towards Robin's apartment. He buzzed Robin's apartment, She looks out her apartment window and it's Ted with the Blue Horn from the pilot. It ends right there.

The mother's name in the finale is revealed to be Tracey as well.

[Roy Mars III]

was not a fan of that

[Z]

That's a bit of a cop out ending

[Marsh.]

Ted should have died. Someone beat him to death with that yellow umbrella.

Funny how he didn't sound like Bob Saget at the end.

Aye, feel most sorry for Bob Saget tbh

[Brother Leon]

It's just annoying, because you could of just predicted this in the first season and the whole thing been done in 2/3 seasons max. I liked ending it on a throwback to the pilot, but that is about it tbh.

Spoiler:

In that sense it did exactly what Lost did. They had quite an obvious premise, which they swore blind it wasn't. They had to in order to stretch the show out.

HIMYM - Robin's not the mother.
Lost - The island isn't purgatory/They're not dead.

But then when the finale rolls around, the endings rely on circling back to those obvious conclusions, but tweaked slightly to make it look like they weren't lying when they denied it.

HIMYM - Robin and Ted together, story about Robin but she's not the "mother".
Lost - They weren't all dead/all in purgatory, but they are now.

Not really a fan of HIMYM, only watched a few episodes here and there but that sounds about right with your Lost comparison, I'm still annoyed about Lost

[Ramsay]

I'm still annoyed
Oh, should probably spoiler that marsh just incase

[BigSister]

Spoiler:

Gonna put in spoiler brackets because it hasnt aired in the uk yet
Im not angry more disapointed at the way it played out. I knew the mom would die going from that scene about not being there for your daughters wedding a few weeks ago. If that happened i kinda thought Ted/Robin would get back together. I guess im more angry at the kids reactions i mean its 6 years but theres no need to say oh its ok obvously you 2 love one another bla bla bla. Also to the people who watched 9 years I only started at the start of s8 so 2 seasons.
