Yeah, obviously the writers have no respect for marriage since they threw away Robin and Barney's marriage on a throwaway joke.
And Robin and Ted NEVER had chemistry.

We quit watching the last season or so. Looking at the ep review it doesn't look like we missed much.
A 9 year story about a woman who is supposed to be super awesome really turns out to be a 9 year story of secret masturbation over another woman confession to his kids. Ted Mosby is the creepiest motherfucker in sitcom history, IMO.

Hated it.
I can't believe they managed to keep it a secret all those years though. They filmed the kids' years ago...the son is from Wizards of Waverly Place and in the ending his voice hasn't changed yet...he's in his 20s now. Unless they filmed multiple endings.
I really liked the mother, thought I wouldn't but she was perfect.
Though it did make me tear up when he was talking about how much he loved her and how he knew she was special and held on to that.
"Being in love" first moved them to promise fidelity: this quieter love enables them to keep the promise. *CS Lewis*
