How I Met Your Mother

Mar 26, 2013 09:04

I am so confused by this ep. What was the point of it? I think we all know that Ted wished he could have met the mother earlier. If he could have met her back in 2005, he would've. So why act like this is somehow brand new information? I get that he wishes he could have sped up the 45 days he had without her, and I will cop to feeling for him, but I don't see the point. We already know that he is depressed and lonely. Why center an entire episode around this?

It just seems reduntant. And it's basically Ted's Symphony of Illumantion (christmas ep from s7) like Robin in that ep, this takes place entirely in Ted's mind and at the end, you find that out. So why should I care about what the others were doing? It wasn't real. And show, when you advertise a dance off, you may actually want to SHOW the dance off. FYI. As much as they make me constantly hate Ted, I do feel for him. At the moment, he feels so alone and is surrounded by happy couples and he can't find the one person who can fill his life with light again. But she's 45 days away, dude. Don't give up, like Stella said, she's getting there as fast as she can. And how does she have a boyfriend when after they met, Ted gets her number, calls her three days later and she's happy about that? How many relationships does this dude ruin?

And speaking of ruin- I am so sick of the writing of B/R. I know that this was all Ted's bs, but that doesn't make it okay that he thinks Barney would make jokes about having multiple wives. That's not funny at all. He loves Robin, they show us that all the time and then they have shit like that. I get that Ted is jealous, etc, but wtf dude. Stop telling your kids this shit. And then the end, L/M get to play with their baby and B/R have to fight over a caterer? and is all, whatever they were fighting about. Please tell me that they are not about to go down the same old road where all they do is fight. That this was just a non heated disagreement about the wedding stuff. Like, no biggie, it's just what happens when you plan a wedding. It's so hard to understand this show, because they write b/r so badly.

Anyway, this was still as pointless as everything else this show has done. Ted was lonely and sad before he met the mother and wished that he could have met her sooner. Wow, how orginial and exciting. *eye roll* I do feel for him though, you kinda want him to hurry up and met her since he has so much love to give. Other than that, god can we please have the finale already?
