It was good. "Was" being the operative word. It should never have been extended past the original end point.
I watched up until about season five or six but it's great! I'll finish it one day. Every single one of the cast members are lovable, and I don't care how gooey and mushy Marshall and Lily are, they are freaking adorbs.
i couldn't get into it
So the first season?Quote:

I did enjoy the final episode even if others didn't.
The original planned end point was after the first season, because they weren't sure if it would get renewed. Same thing for the second and third season. After that, they didn't have any planned end points up until the eventual end.
The original mother was supposed to be the baker lady.
I liked the ending. It was smurfed up.
It had a horrible ending for me. It has two good points that don't work together completely and that makes it horrible as well. And that is sad and not in a very good way.

It has been stated that Victoria was made to be the mother if the series ended too early.Quote:

It's been different people at different times. The coat-check girl, Victoria, Stella...it's just all depended on them getting renewed.
As for the ending: personally, I loved it. I loved that they came full-circle. And it's true what the kids said (SPOILER)the story was really about how Ted's true love was Robin and he was still in love with her after 25 years.
I personally hated the ending, and the entire last season as a whole.
Victoria was my favourite of the girls Ted dated.
I really enjoyed it up until about season 6. 1-5 being the ones I enjoyed, and season 1 probably being my favourite. I also never liked the whole Stella story arc.
Overall a pretty good show though.
omg marshall and lily are being such incredibly stupid $^%!@#$ http://i.imgur.com/a6M1oTI.gif
(starting with season 8 right now)
While I very rarely (if at all) laughed at it, the finale season wasn't as good as the others in places, and the ending of the finale (as well as other things about the finale) wasn't really what I wanted to happen (though I didn't hate the whole finale), and it made it's mistakes like all shows do...
This show really was LEGEN, wait for it... DARY! Seriously, there was so much I love about it, I even have an article/essay in the works about it. It's kind of a defense against people who say they can't watch the show again because of the finale, but it's also an explaination as to why I like the show so much.
Note: Can you still like a comedy if you don't find it funny? I think so, and I do. It's like how I'm a fan of Final Destination, which is a horror movie, but I don't find it scary at all, barring one death from the movies (and some I've heard of that are in the books) that disturbed me.
It was a good show. It had its hit and miss jokes and all the characters were genuinely likeable. I feel they should have made Robin the mother right off the bat, but the ending doesn't bother me as much as it did others. I knew they were going to try to swerve us anyway. Though I have to say by the last season I wasn't even interested in learning who the mother was.
Now that I saw it personally on TV and I don't think it is that bad. It would have never been absolutely satisfying for me. But it is still somehow disappointing.Quote:

But what is so sad is so sad.
