That's basically when the show turned for the worse and I lost all interest in it lol
If that's not the overall goal of the show, than what makes HIMYM different from, say, Friends. It becomes the exact same show, more or less.
I think the writers just got too cute with it...an Aha moment to end the show with who the mother actually is might be the easiest way out, but that's because its the right way out. It wraps it up rather than opening all these stupid doors about Robin/Ted and what happens to Barney (who they butchered in the last episode btw. He went from 40's lothario to loving father in like 2 minutes).
I agree that they tried way to hard to compress big, life changing events into what 42 minutes?
And really what is the difference between any of these shows that features at least 2 male and 2 females friends whose lives are put on display in comedic fashion week after week?
To me they're all about the same.
