    I laughed sooo hard watching this episode, especially when Ted and Barney watched the dvd together with Robin and they were trying so hard to keep from bursting out laughing... hilarious episode ;D

    I never really got what was so charming about this series. Then on this one special: "TV's Funniest Holiday Moments", they had the "slapdown" episode or running gag as #6 or #7 funniest all time in TV history. It was so funny, the audience laugh track wasn't even running so there was no laughter during the scenes for slap #3. I don't think I'll be checking out this series.

    Well to his valor he did watch a compilation, it's not a stretch to say that if he didn't like that he won't enjoy the show

    It's weird because I am a fan of Jason Segel, Neil Patrick Harris, and Alyson Hannigan, but not in these roles (from what I've seen of the show).

    Are you guys still watching this?

    The series lost a bit of steam in the last couple of seasons for me, and this season so far has it been its weakest in my opinion... that said, it's the final season so I'm glad we're on the homestretch, and it carries a bit of weight because of it.

    I thought this week's episode was very much worth watching, we saw an episode dedicated to what has occurred in the series in these past 9 or so years, but from the mother's perspective... we saw the other side of the equation as it pertains all the clues the series has given us so far. The deal with yellow umbrella, the mention of the mother being in Ted's class, the day they were at the same party, when Ted dated her roommate, etc... but all seen from the mother's perspective. I thought it was a nice touch and everything we've gone so far in the series finally comes full circle.

    In any case, looking forward to the last remaining episodes... series finale will be an hour long on March 31.

    still watching, even decided to watch it weekly on the internet instead of waiting for my cable provider to show it (about a week difference).
    most of the season was pretty bad, with some good bits ('How your mother met me', 'sunrise', and maybe a few other).

    I'm trying to hatch a 2000 words long post about how what we see is actually the twisted way that Ted chooses to portray the weekend rather than the what really happened.
    Spoiler: in my version of events, Ted is actually the one with the Kennedy Package.

    Currently Watching: probably a show directed at 9 years old girls, lets be honest.

    You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.

    The name of the episode was "How you mother met me" and yes it was a good one, about the only good one so far actually. I'm glad they're ending this, it's grown stale and it was just one season away from just being bad.

    So, the series has come to the end. Haven't watched the last episode yet, probably tomorrow.

    This last season has been pretty shitty, yet it has been a satisfying close to the series I feel.

    Worst part is how they've wasted the slaps from the slap bets.

    bad, bad, worst episode.

    I mean, sure, I like Ted & Robin. but this episode was mostly a super bad evil joke at the fans expense. "sure, you've waited ten years to meet the mother, here you go", and we were kinda happy with her, because they actually managed to cast someone who'l likable and has special chemistry with josh randor,"and now she's dead"

    Like john Inenicus killing that fat lady in the dream scene of Baldurs gate 2, or what those whatever god-aliens did in Gantz.

    The ending gave sense to the story, i for one liked it.

  17. #57
    I'm with you here, I liked the ending too. It wasn't a great episode from an entertainment / funny perspective, a bit dull at times, but story wise I really don't have any complaints on how everything transpired in this last episode. And I very much liked the twist.

    Overall, much like the last couple of seasons, the final season was a poor one... it just wasn't as funny as before, and sillier (and not in a good way) than ever.

    All that said, the final season was very satisfactory for me. Everything came full circle, and the story managed to have proper beginning and ending, and that's so hard to find on TV. I for one was one that was very unimpressed when they made the choice of who'll play the mother, after all the build-up. But I have to say that the actress fit the role perfectly, and the interaction and chemistry with Ted was very good, so that was a pleasant surprise.

    All in all, going to miss the show. Even at its worst, it provided a semblance of entertainment every week for me... but also glad that it managed to end, and end properly.

    Indeed, very good finale. No complaints.

    I gotta say though, that scene when Barney held and talked to the baby... damn, that hit me right in the feels. Got all choked up lol

    I'm just glad that it's over so that four of these actors that I love can stop being on this show I don't care about and can hopefully go do better things.

    I liked it as well. It was a little neat, but does show how messy and random life can be.
