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.

Spoiler:

Yeah, giving your Dad your blessing to move on is all well and good but sitting there to hear about how your Dad met your dead mother and yet he made it all about Robin would pee me off.

It wasn't.

Jesus christ I'm actually so angry at that

Spoiler:

9 ****ing years we've had of Ted and Robin when we all knew she wasn't the mother and this last season was supposed to be about drawing a line under the whole thing. Why the hell do they dedicate a whole season to Barney and Robin's wedding weekend and then twenty minutes into the last episode it's like "oh yeah we got divorced btw lol". ffs.

One of the only good things about this last season is that the mother has actually been great and her and Ted together works, that's supposed to be what the whole show was leading up to it but now it turns out she's not that important and the kids aren't even that bothered about the whole story of how Ted met her

It's just a joke, this last season has been so bad it's almost killed the show but if they ended it well they could have saved it, but now they've just gone and ruined the whole series never mind just the season

Well said these people:

This was horrible. This ignored everything that had happened between Ted and Robin, between Robin and Barney, between Ted and Barney and, especially, between Ted Evelyn Mosby and Tracy McConnell, all because once upon a time, this is what Bays and Thomas wanted to do.

...

If "HIMYM" hadn't been as great as it was in its early days, or as great as it could even be from time to time more recently, I wouldn't care this much. I wouldn't be as angry as I am. But there kept being moments in this final season, and throughout this final episode, that reminded me of what the show is capable of, and it only filled me with more despair that we were clearly heading towards the ending I feared was coming ever since "Vesuvius" aired. How, I wondered, could the same two men who wrote that great scene where Barney met his daughter for the first time be so tin-eared in this other area? How could the same writers who absolutely, 100% nailed the moment when Ted and Tracy finally meet on the train platform not realize that they had already undermined it by spending so much of the finale on the dissolution of Robin's marriage and her leftover feelings for Ted? How could they not see the happy, satisfying ending that was staring them right in the face, and instead do... this?

Ted and Robin ended. This was established in the first episode. The writers spent NINE seasons convincing us that the relationship we wanted to believe in wasn’t right, wasn’t meant to be. And now, after finally making sense of everything for us, they throw everything away, and give us Robin and Ted again.

Robin wasn’t right for Ted. She wasn’t his first choice, and he wasn’t hers. What’s the lesson here? Clearly, it’s not fate, hopeless romance, or the whole “The One” thing. Ted didn’t need to marry the Mother to realize he wanted to be with Robin. Robin had seasons to realize that Barney wasn’t right for her. But she didn’t. Is that the lesson? That people are too stupid to see what’s right?

Having been married to The Mother, Ted wouldn’t have wanted to get back with Robin. He – and we – spent nine seasons realizing they’re not meant to be. Once back with her, he wouldn’t be able to take her blossoming career willed with constant travel. Robin was never The Mother that Ted needed and wanted in his life.
