How I Met Your Mother: Last Forever: Part Two (2014)
Season 9, Episode 24
6/10
A very underwhelming finale
4 January 2021
Warning: Spoilers
After 9 long seasons we got a rushed and unsatisfactory ending. The finale was full of contradictions and ludicrous events. Ted finally meets the very likeable mother only to kill her off so soon. This was a savage decision. After almost a decade of build up and so many annoying relationships to suffer through they kill the mother off and Ted winds up with Robin. The show spent 9 seasons telling us why Robin and Ted could not work and contradict themselves in this rushed ending. Also the timing was so off, the mother dies and Robyn gets divorced and goes with Ted with Ted in 2 episodes. After dragging this show for so long they offer this terrible sequence of events. Barney's character development was destroyed and Robyn was shown as miserable without a man and children? This didn't make any sense given she's been an independent woman in the whole show, the writers forgot about all this. A very poor payoff after suffering through some mediocre episodes/writing.
