Maybe Ted will turn out to be gay, end up with Kumar and this is the story of how they found the kids' surrogate.

oh come on introducing the mother on 'how i met yr mother' is jumping the shark?

Show of bad faith w/r/t the title?

I'm pretty sure he's telling the world's longest-ass story, making shit up as he goes along, cuz he's in denial/delaying telling the kids their mother just died.

Or she left him to join the circus or something.

well obv it's gonna happen but i feel like people who always want it to happen NOW NOW HOW ABOUT NOW or really any sooner than the last 6 episodes of the final season haven't thought about the logistics of basically adding a new character to a pretty small cast.

ok but considering its got sucky i kinda want a last awesome six episodes.

Kumar! Ok one new actor and I immediately love this show again. Man I love Kumar. Love him so much that one day maybe i'll wikipedia him and learn his real name.

he is a pretty good fit for the gang, i admit

super black girl that ted dates is super hot too.

kal penn! i cant believe i forgot his name! i am ashamed.

KAL PENN WORKED FOR THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION WHAT THE HELL HOW DID I NOT KNOW THIS

that's why he killed himself on house. to go work for obama.

they stole the kissing bit from community!

it may be because im p drunk at 5.22am but i am really enjoying these episodes.

The last few were really good imo.

(Yeah, noticed the Community thing too.)

The kissing bit from Community?

After talking about sexual tension between them as just friends, Robin and Barney do jokey fake lovey hand signals to imply touching each other and kissing before actually doing it in the cab (last week)

After talking about sexual tension between them as just friends, Jeff and Britta do jokey fake lovey hand signals to imply touching each other and kissing before actually doing it during paintball (two years ago).

oh shit, you're right, I forgot about that. Nicely done!

It's a much wackier sitcom, but Community does the like each other/emotional investment thing pretty well, too - especially if you discount Chevy Chase

this show makes me cry all the time this season

^yeah. Wish it made me laugh more though.

'infertile Robin' was pretty whoa

"Aunt Lauren sure loved a toasted bun."

have you guys ever been out with your friends and the night started to kind of lag and you fantasize barney walking in all like "ok guys watch this I call it the iowa caucus" or something? do i watch this show too much?

i know it's structured around ted and his finding the mother of his kids but 9 times out of 10 i kind of wish they would just write him off the show.

Thank you for the revive - is it new tonight? I'd forgotten it was on!

loved the changed theme song sequences tonight, especially the one that was a reference to the Russian version of the show that i posted itt a few months ago: i know i'm one of the only people on ilx who watches *how i met your mother* on a regular basis, but did anyone else see the robin sparkles episode? where robin didn't want people to know that she had

cosign!

"..we built chip city.."

ok, might be the time to get off this train.

but ted loves robin againzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

i did like the tag with the stripper but that can't make up for ted/robin

Wow how shit was that?

really don't understand people's ire for recent episodes/seasons of this show

I've liked most of this season actually (big rebound in general for the show after two seasons ago which was iirc a real low point), but i thought last night's ending was terrible. i thought the robin/kevin stuff was played pretty well and realistically, but we already know (due to robin's childlessness, the entire premise of the show being ted talking to his kids, the constant references to robin as aunt robin) that ted + robin will never work so this feels a little bit like the show is just turning gears bc we know they aren't going to end up together and it has kinda mined this particular plot point extensively over the course of the first few seasons. so it does feel like a retread. maybe they'll dismiss it pretty quickly tho, or maybe it'll turn out Ted telling her he loved her really meant that he loved her as a close friend or some other corny twist like that. In any case, it was a pretty shitty ending I'd say.

um, adoption?

I seem to remember the childless Robin episode ending with Ted saying that while Robin went on to do many things, she never became a mother.

I remember the same thing.

I thought he said she never became a pole vaulter? Maybe I'm mixing things up. Either way, there's no way he'd refer to his children's mother as "Aunt Robin".

Certainly there's a part where she's talking to her kids and then she says something like, "But you don't exist," or something and they vanished, which presumably wouldn't be the case if she had adopted children.

Find the flaw there, Mordy. I started to point it out to you, then had a moment where I realized that I was about to get pedantic on the fine points of a sitcom on an internet board. Thank God my self-respect has kicked in at the last moment.

I don't mind the pedantry. What's the flaw? I admit I don't remember every detail of that episode...

OK, they handled that really well, I have to admit.

Yeah, the resolution was decently done, but it still irks me how they throw that up as a Big Moment the week before. I guess I had figured that the Robin/Ted thing wasn't an issue anymore, but I suppose it ties in with that bit earlier in the season where they said they would eventually realize they couldn't be friends anymore.

really don't understand people's ire for recent episodes/seasons of this show

Seriously. I feel like they must have never watched a show that had a legit and noticeable decline. There may have been some imperceptible troughs, but the show has been shockingly stable in terms of quality for almost seven years. I'm hard-pressed to think of many shows that have pulled that off.

I actually agree with that and have said so upthread. I just thought the ending of last week's was really disappointing. But, like I say, they actually made it work this week!

I am sloooowly becoming one of those nuts who is starting to think the punchline of the series is going to be "and that's how I met your mother, and it was fantastic, but she's been dead for a year and I'm hooking up with your Aunt Robin now. Hope you're ok with that."

watching this episode i realized that i am pot committed to this show

i thought maybe things had picked up this season, after last year, but however many episodes in i just found that i didn't care if i missed it anymore. : /

The punchline of the series is going to be that Ted is dying. Or I'd like to think so.
