How I Met Your Mother has been renewed for a ninth and final season.

CBS has confirmed recent speculation that the Neil Patrick Harris series will be back in the autumn to bid farewell to its all-star cast, although the exact episode order has not yet been announced.

How I Met Your Mother also appears to be nearing the reveal of the mother of Ted's (Josh Radnor) children, which has been a long-running mystery throughout the course of the show.

CBS entertainment president Nina Tassler said of the renewal: "Through eight years, How I Met Your Mother has mastered the art of leading-edge comedy, emotional water-cooler moments and pop culture catchphrases.

"We are excited... to tell the final chapter and reveal television's most mysterious mother to some of TV's most passionate fans."

2 years too late.

Must happen at the end of this season because we know he meets her at Barney and Robin's wedding surprised they are bothering with another season really, the show's definitely losing steam and had heard Jason Segel wasn't keen on doing another one

I omitted the bit about Jason Segal returning because I thought people knew... but yeah he's back.

[BBfanUSA]

I don't think it was about the mother, I think it was about 5 people.

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.
