      The Barney and robin wedding i mean it starts with s6 and i thought it’d be Cindy’s wedding but then the s6 finale reveals Barney and I wonder who the bride I think it’s Nora till they break up but then when he gets engaged to Quinn I think it’s her until the s7 finale reveals that it’s robin and I wanna how and the way it happened is really sweet

      The “Time Travelers, You’re All Alone” ending was totally worthy of being included on this list. But number 2, the death of Tracy Moseby, and ultimately the long term demise of the entire series, is definitely number 1.

    If you were surprised by Barney becoming a dedicated father, you didn’t pay attention to the series.
    Barney consistently had a soft spot for children, with perhaps the best example being his brother’s marriage. Barney had been adamantly opposed to his brother’s wedding until he found out that he and his husband were adopting a baby. From that moment on, Barney was incredibly supportive and took great pride in being an uncle.

    As far as I’m concerned, Tracy never died and Barney and Robin stayed married. That is how the show ended for me. I hate that they went through all that to say that Ted and Robin weren’t good together, but Robin and Barney were, only to throw all of it out the window on the last episode.
    And yes, I am aware of the guest appearances on HIMYF. And while I did like them, and they do go with that original ending to HIMYM, I still hate that original ending.

      Craig Thomas & Carter Bays could teach a master class in worst series finales of all time because they truly nailed it. I mean, Lost has a controversial ending that split the fanbase but even that did not undo the entire series rendering it utterly pointless making the the fans feel like they wasted the last 8 years of their lives watching it. It’s truly a series finale that lives in infamy.

    @palemich Před 4 měsíci +13

    Marshall’s dad dying was done so brilliantly. It didn’t hit me quite as hard until I rewatched it for some reason.
    I think it was just so brilliant because the countdown was such an exciting feature, and it sort of built up a sense of whimsy and made you feel safe and comfortable and then it just hit you right in the gut out of nowhere with something so genuinely agonising. It was brilliantly pulled off. I have so much admiration for whoever’s idea the countdown was.
    It will always stick with me. And Jason’s choice to be oblivious to the reveal and improv his genuine reaction to hearing the news was just an amazing piece of acting👏🏼

  • @palemich
    @palemich Před 4 měsíci +14

    I’m still so upset by the original ending because they actually pulled of something impossible. They spent eight years building the mother up to be this perfect woman who could never possibly live up to our expectations- and then somehow against all odds; she was perfect. She actually was, and we adored her. And then they decided to kill her off before we even really saw her with Ted; it was like they’d made it to the end of the race, but then they took away the finished line.
    As a result- the last season just sits horribly and it’s so sad because it had everything going for it😢

    Other fact about the storyline with Robin unable to have kids....that partially mirrored Cobie Smulders real life. She was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2007 when she was 25. So there was a chance she wouldn't be able to have kids. Thankfully, she had surgery, simultaneously beat cancer and has been cancer-free since 2015. Plus, her and her husband Taran (who played Gary Blauman on the show) have two children.

  • @cazia9

    I’m probably in the minority here but I never felt like Robin being unable to have kids was that big of a surprise - I was more shocked when she told Barney she was pregnant (or believed she was) bc she has made it so crystal clear from square one she doesn’t want to be a parent … there could have been a great opportunity show her exercising her right to choose and having that be the journey she goes throughout that particular arc

    The death of the mother, Tracy, was shocking and sad. I'm glad an alternate ending was included in the Season 9 DVD. But had the writers not killed Tracy, the show could have run a few more seasons. Ted's problem was that he was too fixated on Robin. But I still love the show.

    The Barney and Robin 2nd breakup was annoying. It was such a rug pull because how it happened in the episode after the wedding but they had done such a good job of making it believable this time, their first time together it wasn't, and then to do that just to force Ted and Robin together in an hour long episode was dumb.
    And I will post on any video about Marshall's dad. Didn't notice the #'s until the end and thought "what's up with the numbers?" Then when it showed the empty workshop I just said "oh no." It was so well done and also heartbreaking. The fact that Jason didn't know the twist at the end until Allison said the line just adds to the gut punch.

    I'd like to see a top ten HIMYM fan theories list, one I've come up with is that Robin was a Canadian porn star in the 90s and Ted being the narrator, changed her to a fallen pop star to keep it PG. Evidence for this comes from: the opening of Let's go to the mall, a brief snippet of Space Teens using an equation that adds up to 69, and Robin Daggers representing her mental state after developing an addiction to dangerous substances following a traumatic experience while filming in a mall ( altered to a Paul Shaffer obsession by Ted). The last one may have contributed to her fertility issues and fear of malls.
