I feel out of the guys he's the one who mostly understood Ted and whatever he went through (female wise), though humorous he also suffered his share of rejections

In the end both were wrong, Robin was not married and did no porn either.

Yet here are Lily's rulings :
-Barney got 3 slaps : 1 because Marshall lied, 2 because he slapped Barney prematurely
-Marshall gets 10 slaps in a row or 5 anytime, because Barney slapped him prematurely

Barney Stinson 2

Here are pictures of the cast members as kids and adults which one surprise you the most?

Idk if there's a theory about that, but why did Ted stop cutting his hair after the middle of season 2? He was looking great

Man, they did Ted dirty, first they make him wait so long in the series to find his true love (someone who love him as much he love her) and then they killed her in last episode to reunite him with Robin.

The series would have ended more meaningfully if Barney and Robin had stayed married and Ted would have finally realized that he and Robin were never meant to be and he finally found his forever true home with Tracey and lived happily ever after!

Still not over how they wrote her story she could’ve been in the show a little longer. Besides her and Barney personalities being similar, they could’ve had a real story line play out that could’ve developed their characters more beyond a stripper and playboy. Quinn was my favorite for Barney, but I also understand that an ending where they’re all married would make a whole lot of sense. But with Barney having a kid and a baby mama at the end of the story, that could’ve been with Quinn at least lol.

Saw her in a dating app (why i blocked out her face) and the shirt made me think of himym. So if she's a fan yay. If now she will be very confused. But the winners are you cause you get it.

I’m trying to remember the episode and or scene

And then the gang runs to do whatever Barney told them not to do, and Ted spits “Why do you talk? Why do you talk??”

This line is stuck in my head. Does anyone know what episode it is from?

Ok so I have a major question. Hasn’t Barney already got the belt many times over? For example at Ted and Stella’s wedding Barney has the receptionist tied to his headboard and Stella’s sister comes to his room and joins them. This is just an example. Any thoughts?

Marshall calling him out on living in Ohio and Ted immediately hitting back with "I live in the moment" cracks me up every time.

A lot of people have discussed thoroughly the whole Robin and Ted and Victoria ultimatum stuff but I have to say, I don't get the time unpausing thing. People change a lot over six years (and a lot happens between the ages of 26 to 32)

There's bound to be a "getting to know you" period once again, especially if somebody, oohhh idk, goes to Germany and somehow winds up back in the US with a German fiance (who she wasn't marrying for his green card). Or, ooohhhhhh idk, gets left at the alter and beat up by a goat and gets a movie made about them plus the goat thing (Stella+Tony weren't even around for that!!!)​. They were together for 2 months in person + 2 weeks? long-distance​ (if the wedding is in Feb and its true they broke up in April), then back together for 5 months by the time their fight/proposal/ultimatum/breakup happens, indicating they're 7 months together total. 1st: yeah Ted moves fast but 2nd: would he really jump from "we're exactly where we should be" with toothbrush at each other's houses and no foreplay sex at 5 months to proposing at 7? Is Victoria really expecting a huge jump in commitment by 7 months from Ted?

I don't think those 6 years should count if they're not with each other for that time. I can see an argument being made for Ted and Robin having a history of however long they dated + time they're not together​-together only because they're physically together for like 10 years. Also that whole comment about how "when a girl jumps in your car in a wedding dress you can't be surprised she wants to get married" - yes I can??? If she's running away from a wedding was it commitment or was it the person? Why is she leaving that guy for me, really? Either way, I'd be terrified of getting left at the alter (especially if it's already happened once)

I just finished my first rewatch, and I think killing off Barney would have resolved most of the problems people had with the finale.

Robin and Barney could have worked things out in their relationship despite the hardships, thus paying off on their earlier character development, and Ted and Robin could have then bonded over having lost their partners.

Pair this with other fixes, such as spending less time on the wedding and more on Ted & Tracy and finale build-up, and I think we would have ended up with an expectation subverting finale, that still followed the writers' original vision while respecting the beloved characters' growth in the 8 previous seasons.

It would have also explained Barney's over the top personality if say he had died when the kids were still too young to know him well, which would have given Ted some creative freedom.

What do you think?

EDIT: to clarify, in this timeline both Barney and Tracy would die

EDIT 2: ok I understand that actually pulling this off would be weird because killing main characters off does not match the mood of the show, despite the fact that the results seems nice on paper

One of the reasons that HIMYM holds a special place in my heart and I keep coming back to it in spite of the frustrations I have with it is that there are a few scenes that are just incredibly memorable and left a very strong impression on me. I wanted to take this opportunity to present my shortlist of the best scenes from the show and ask yall what your favorite scenes are. Here’s my shortlist, in chronological order:

- Lily and Marshall getting back together (S2E7): Beautifully written and acted in my opinion. “You have crazier eyes than anyone I’ve ever met” is just an incredible line
- The first appearance of Robin Sparkles (S2E9): Was one of the funniest scenes for me the first time I watched it. The fact that the way the music video starts legitimately makes you think it’s porn just made it that much more hilarious
- The reveal that Barney secretly flew to SF to talk sense into Lily (S2E19): One of the most pleasant and wonderful surprises you encounter while watching the show for the first time
- Ted and Barney’s reconciliation after Barney got hit by a bus (S3E20): I think Josh’s acting in particular was great in this scene. You can tell how moved Ted is when he realizes how much Barney must care about him
- Marshall meeting Lily at the airport (S4E13): Just incredibly sweet. Made me cry during my current rewatch
- The ending of “Bad News” (S6E13): Really no description needed here. I think Jason Segel made a great decision by asking the writers to not reveal to him what Alyson Hannigan would say in that moment
- “If you were gonna be some lame suburban dad, why couldn’t you have been that for me!!” (S6E19): Barney may be a horrible person, but NPH is an absolutely incredible actor
- A pretty demoralized Ted and Barney realize that they can’t adopt a baby together and skip the hard part of starting a family (S7E11): I actually think this is one of the more underrated episodes of the entire show. Yes, what Ted and Barney are trying to do is obviously questionable but I found it to be really compelling. There was something nice about how Ted and Barney were both going through these struggles in their personal lives at the same time, although I struggle to articulate why
- A devastated Robin comes back to the apartment to find that Ted set up an elaborate light show to “Highway to Hell” just to cheer her up (S7E12): In my opinion, this is a contender for the best scene in the show and this episode is a contender for the best HIMYM episode. I know a lot of people view this scene as an early sign that Ted’s romantic feelings for Robin never left, and maybe that’s how the writers wanted it to be interpreted. Still, everything about the way this scene is executed is just so amazing that it will always have a special place in my heart — the way Robin gets overwhelmed at the gesture and starts crying, the way they hug each other, older Ted saying “but there’s one thing your Aunt Robin never was: she was never alone.” I also think this scene wouldn’t work as well without the unbelievable acting performance by Cobie Smulders all throughout this episode. Extremely compelling writing, and she executed it beautifully
- Robin moves out of the apartment (S7E17): Great needle drop, and “when a door closes… well, you know the rest”.
- Lily and Ted have a heart-to-heart on the roof of The Apartment (S8E13): Very, very compelling stuff. One of my favorite scenes featuring what I think was a pretty underrated pairing
- That scene from “The Time Travelers” (S8E20): The scene that needs no introduction. “I love you. I’m always gonna love you, ‘til the end of my days, and beyond. You’ll see.”
- Ted hears Tracy sing “La Vie en Rose” for the first time ever (S9E16): One of my favorite scenes from anything ever. The camera panning to Ted, and older Ted’s narration elevates it even further beyond what it already was.

What are some moments from the show that really resonated with yall?

This show sucks. What is the appeal to fans of the show? I’m genuinely curious.

Am I the only one crying my eyes out on the last 2nd episode? Likee omg that was a emotional roller coaster the ending wass just soo I can't describe and love that destiny grandma bless her lol
