Robin Moving in and needing to leave reminded me of Friends. When Rachel and Ross were not only living together but when they were still married. All bc Ross in his heart finally married the woman he was in love w since he was a kid and tried to blame the reason in being known for divorces.
When a woman says she doesnt love you its time to move on. Dont waste another second on her, she does not want you. Mad props to Marshall I always found him to be the true star of the show. Hes a true loyal friend, He protected Ted from the harm of others and protects him from himself. We would all be so lucky to have a Marshall as a friend in our lives.
Moments like this is why I love Marshall so much, hes so aware of his friends feelings and emotions. Hes not afraid to say what needs to be said to protect who he loves
This episode was the perfect beginning of the dovetail into Ted once and forever getting over Robin. What a terrible, terrible shame they threw away every bit of Ted, Robin and Barney's development from Seasons 8-9 in one crap episode because the directors couldn't shift gears 9 years later.
And yet somehow after this, Ted still holds on to the idea of him and Robin. So it turns out the whole thing was just Ted confessing to his kids that their mother wasn’t what he wanted all his life, it was Robin. Even though she told him she didn’t love him. Smdh…
Beatiful scene but the end makes this and other great moments of the show suck, ok the mom could die, but don't make Ted and Robin end up together that's just bullshit and in a way a Disney's ending
Honestly, why does Ted still talk with Marshall?!? He’s been a part of the bet of him and Robin, so how is Ted supposed to trust anything he (and Lily) says anymore is real or so he can win one of the bets. (yes he’s rooting for them to be together and he ended up being right but that’s irrelevant) Hell, Marshall proves my point just moments later telling Robin to keep the hairdryer.
She did love him but she said no because even though Ted said he was fine with it, she knew his biggest dream was to have kids and she didn’t want to trap him just because he’s in love with her.
The scene plays out very similarly to how it felt letting go of my best friend I’ve always had a secret love for, it pained me too much to know me and her would never happen, so I ended up just cutting tides with her because holding onto that friendship was causing me more pain than anything
Can't stand people who are still bashin on the show for the ending, and no it wasn't a bad ending. Yes, it was a little rushed, and I would assume for genuine reasons. The beautiful thing about HIMYM is not just the comedy, we all know how many great sitcoms/romcom got amazing comedy. We're used to that, and we expect that from them. However, the thing that I absolutely love about the show in particular is how they incorporate a certain level of tragedy to add depth and a meaningful connection between the characters and audience. You don't just laugh with them, you feel for them on a very universal level because the emotions themselves are universal. It is amazing artistry to blend comedy and tragedy together in unifying harmony, because life is exactly that. It is never all laughter and happiness, and it is not all gloom and sadness. You have to give credit to the show and while I understand that people are mad about the ending, it's time to let go. The ending constitute around a percent of the entire show, which still leaves 99% of the show as you'd like it. A no brainer right there.
And finally ted gets to see all the yellow umbrellas. And then he chooses his "the one", but again gets back with the one who had no yellow umbrella, but had 5 dogs instead. Okay, I'm done. I really love the show though.
I don’t understand why people dislike the ending of the show. Ted got his family, which is why I always thought Robin didn’t wanna be with him and she really did love him. And he ended up with Robin because Barney would never stay married to anyone. Only bad thing was his wife had to die to make it happen. They could’ve written a divorce in.
@@mackinshizzaveli4202 Because Barney and Robin belonged together as shown repeatedly from s1 zip zip zip, their character development from Commitment phobic to getting married was the best part of the show and Robin and Ted had only 2 seasons dedicating where they were never meant to. She was aunt robin and tracy was the only one. It was a lazy writing and the writers had to use an old tape shot while s2 but it came with a cost of stripping all the development and Ted moving on thing.
@@barney4053 Talking about character development but completely ignore the fact that Barney went completely against the bro code that he always speaks about to get with Robin. #1 rule of bro code is you don’t mess with your bros girl past or present. Who watched that show and didn’t think Ted and Robin wouldn’t end up together? They promised each other they would be together, Ted taught Barney a course on how to love Robin, Robin told Ted if she were to have any bodies kids it would be his. They cut a scene out the finale where Robin told Ted she knew she chose wrong. Only lazy writing was killing Tracey. They could’ve written a divorce in.
@@mackinshizzaveli4202 The bro code is stupid as Barney confirms and everyone knew Ted and Robin were never meant to be in s1 pilot itself. She was aunt robin and robin rejected him 5 times if i'm counting right. Ted and Robin realised that they want different things and Ted didn't even liked Robin's independence unlike barney who like everything about her and not just the good parts. Barney said she meant more to him than kids and Robin said she can't shake the fact they belonged together. The writers made Barney and Robin compatible and soulmates in gradually developed relationship from s3 to s9. Then they tried to sabotage using few incidents like locket scene and divorce so that they could use the tape.
This episode is why I hated the finale, why did this episode talk so much about moving on and closing the door on something only to just reverse the entire thing and have Ted and Robin get back together
One of the most heartbreaking scene of the show and still ended with such great notes.. that's why How I Met Your Mother is more than just a sitcom and my favourite show ❤️
Another thing that gets me about this scene is the mirror to Robin leaving the apartment after that conversation with Lily. Such a well thought out passion project of a show.
Actually Ted doesn't deserve Robin, he doesn't like her independence still had a weird obsession of her being an idea wife fantasy. He never liked the real Robin.
@@barney4053 I think Ted loved Robin so much as a person. He really did like the real Robin. He cared about her so much that he even chose her friendship over relationships with other women. He stuck with her. She was one of his best friends. He was his true self with her and she with him. I think he would’ve been with her no matter what but deep down Robin knew she would be holding Ted back from the life he’s always fantasized. She cared about Ted too. They just wanted different things.
