Jason Segel didn't know that marshalls father was death, neither Alyson Hannigan, a few moments before the scene was recorded the creators revealed Lily the truth and the new script... Cold blooded but effective
@@TheLegendher0 Apparently, the entire reveal was also counted down. I'm not sure when it starts, but I know for sure that the wine bottle Marshall raised up had the number 7 on it, he and Barney "fertility five"-ing was number 5, the sign at the bar's entrance that reads "open 'til 3 A.M." was number 3, and the cab that Lily got out of had the number 1.
"You are the love of my life. Everything I have, and everything I am, is yours. Forever." That moment wasn't sad, but damn did it hit hard. To see Barney quit his ways after meeting the woman of his life, his daughter, the very instant he held her...
I see why you say that, I think that is the moment that I really had tears to my eyes along with tracey's death. But this isn't a sad moment, it's a beautifull and happy one
that basketball hoop scene ...just wow .. if you hear closely you can hear neil's voice breaks. such a fantastic actor he is ! also look at alyson's face when she tells marshal about his dad or when she admits her hardship in her motherhood. she is such an underrated treasure of talent.
Met my dad when I was 32 and told him to fuck off. And he will never meet his grandkids. I grew up in foster care and still my mom was more than that that POS. And he will never meet my kids.
Well deserved number 1, that's by far the saddest part of the show. The acting is heartbreaking, even more so by the fact that Jason Segel didn't know what the news would be until Alyson Hannigan said it.
As heartbreaking as that is it was perfect to do it that way the emotion from Jason is simply made more real by it just one of the moments of genius in TV
one moment that always gets missed but always makes me tear up is when loretta gives barney his dad's phone number and he rips it up and says "I already have a father, and his name is Loretta" - with the montage of her being there for him all his life. so emotional
Surah Online yup- Jason Segal didn’t know what Marshall was going to be told. He knew Alyson’s line ended with ‘it’ but didn’t know the rest until they were filming so that was his genuine reaction and they used that take.
True. Segal didnt know what will happen because carter and days told that the scene will be changed. It was supposed to be that lily will tell marshall that she is pregnant and then was changed.
Marvin Senior is one of the best people in the show. Marshall is a great man and the influence passed onto him from his father frequently shows. Marvin Senior is, in a way, a lot of what my dad is to me and what I hope to be to my children one day. To watch that scene, brilliantly performed by Alyson Hannigan, is a moment of almost unbearable pain, not only for what it represents, but for the people Marshall and Marvin Senior are.
i was one of those people because i had only watch HIMYM partially but i just finished the entire series and HIMYM has more of a plot and ups and downs. truly a wonderful show.
It's been 4 years since "HIMYM" finished, it seems that nobody will ever forget the ending in a hurry. Tracy was depicted as such a likable, quirky character, and the perfect match for Ted. After seeing both Ted and Tracy go through hard times, it was satisfactory to have them meet and fall for each other, only for the devastating blow of the ending! The best part of the finale was Barney meeting his baby daughter for the first time, which always makes me happy cry!
I kinda wish that Barney had his daughter in like season 8 whilst wedding preparations were going on so that we'd still get that moment. Barney wouldn't get full time custody but would at least be able to see her at least twice in a month. Robin and Barney could've stayed married and just gone to couples therapy if they really needed to (but let's be honest, whole of season 9 basically was their couples therapy all they'd have to do would be stop travelling so much and only go like twice a year since Robin still had a great career). Tracy would've never died and other than Ted and Tracy meeting and getting married and all the Marshall and Lily stuff, nothing else in the finale would be canon.
And the worst part of the finale was Tracy being killed of by the creators for some reason and Ted and Robin being forced together… Basically season 9 was a wedding stretched into 22 episodes and 2 about Ted and Tracy.. And that was sad cuz I loved Tracy she was by far the best character and they didn’t give her enough time. *Ted and Robin where forced together and you might say it had been 6 years since Tracy died but for us it was an episode and that is little time *Season 9 was for nothing (the wedding part) because Barney and Robin broke up.. the should have made the wedding 12 episodes maximum and the rest about Ted and Tracy. The whole season was rushed and the ending was bad but except that the show was really good
@@alexm5476 Tracy being dead was fine. I highly suspected it (like not a theory but actually had good evidence) that it would happen since the episode where at Stella and Ted’s wedding. The one wheee he decides to t all to robin instead of tony.
Friends was and amazing show with great comedy . But how I met your mother is full love ,heart , humor and emotional and new how to pull everything off I really love how I met your mother
The most heartbreaking moment for me is Lily’s confession. When Lily and Ted are on the roof. Lily forces Ted to admit he is happy for Barney and Robin but he thinks Robin should be with him and not Barney. Her confession of wishing she wasn’t a mom gets to me every single time I watch it. She is an amazing actress and this scene brings the tears to my eyes each time.
Unpopular opinion: The ending would've worked if the season hasn't revolved around Barney and Robin's wedding and cramming everything at the last few episodes. If they had just wrapped the wedding scenario at first half of the season then let the Ted/Robin relationship redevelop at second half, the ending wouldve been more acceptable
Still would'e been hella annoying bc Barney/Robin and Ted/Tracy were made for each other. I would've been okay with Tracy's death but I just don't like Ted/Robin with/without development. But I guess if it was done properly could've been an acceptable ending
Edgar Jr Cristobal nah mate still wouldn't have worked. We saw for 9 years(seasons) how Robin treated Ted and what she did to Barney, its impossible to like the show if it went on as you described it.( just my opinion)
I always think about the interview with Alyson Hannigan (lilly) after the show finished and she said that there was so much more that they didn't put in like the funeral and little scenes of the gang there for Ted that she felt allowed you to truly mourn the loss. I think they expected another season where they could flush that out more but Jason Segel (Marshell )was done and didn't even want to do the last season so they were in crunch mode. The finale was not the best but I still loved it. It shows something that has always made me love this show and why it's my favorite, life is messy, and it doesn't always end up where you want it to. Alot of people's arguments that the whole show was about Ted getting to Tracy, we spend 8 season falling in love this woman and than Cristin Milioti (Tracy) actually pulled it off and lived up to the hype. Then they threw her in the garbage in the finale and shows Ted never loved her but the "deleted lunch scene himym" you can search on RU-vid gives context that he did love her and wouldn't risk her or his family for Robin, and from what I gathered from writers and cast talking about it, after he loss her that Robin was there for him and that's how it got started up again.
i dont know. to me, finding out robin can't have kids was probably the saddest moment ever. for as important as tracy is in the show, robin is much more. she never wanted kids and was always so sure of it, but as she says herself, it's another thing not to be able to have them. robin is presented as a determined character who knows what she wants in life, what are her plans for the future, her career, etc. and kids were never part of it. but realizing she won't have kids anyway literally breaks her, cause she still wants the possibility to choose whether having them or not, as we all do. tracy's death could have been the saddest moment ever, what with all the signs of her illness shown before the finale, but in the end it's so quick it's almost harmless, i think. robin's pain drags on throughout the rest of the show.
no i think robin's news was sadder bc there was more build up. tracy's death just kinda happened. it was sudden and there was no backstory. she jut all of a sudden died so it didn't rlly make me sad bc they didn't work up to it
Throughout the episode where Marshalls father passes theres subliminal numbers hidden in props and in the background ect counting down numbers till Marshall gets told the unfortunate news
Marshall's was so real for when his dad died because they didn't tell jason segal that the episode was ending that way. So it was his genuine reaction *sobs*
Top 10 saddest moments from Himym: 1. Season 9 2. Season 9 3. Season 9 4. Season 9 5. Season 9 6. Season 9 7. Season 9 8. Season 9 9. Season 9 10. Season 9 That season was so sad...
#1 is made all the more sad because of what happened behind the scenes. In rehearsal Jason Segel (Marshall) and Alyson Hannigan (Lily) had it set up so Jason would react when he heard the word “it”. He assumed it would be Lily saying she was pregnant but in reality the scene shown is how it was filmed and his reaction is 100% authentic, unrehearsed emotion.
The moment Tracey says “ofc she came, which mother won’t attend her daughter’s wedding” and the look in ted’s eyes, I cried so so much. I can’t even😭😭😭😭
This is one of the reasons why I love this series. I think this is one of the most realistic shows. HIMYM tackles some of the issues we think we can't share even to the people that our close to our hearts.
This is the reason I accepted Himym ending. It did not have the ending we all wanted but the show was all about dealing issues with life and moving on, being happy despite how many heartbreak moments you've had.
What about Ted telling his kids how much it hurt when he got the text that Robin and Barney were engaged through the montage of his all painful experiences ending with Robin saying him she didn't love him back .... ? Or, Robin's crying in the rain holding Ted's hands after she couldn't find the locket in 'something blue' ?
I’m gonna be honest here, these are the perfect picks, especially in order. I have to say, every time I rewatch this show, whenever I watch Marshall react to his fathers death, I bust out crying, EVERY.SINGLE.TIME. Good job on the picks!
I would love to agree. But no. It was handled poorly. We barely get the time to process everything before Penny's obnoxious "You love aunt Robin" and the terrible ending happens.
The moment when Marshall lost has dad hit me hard because not too far away my dad passed away too so it felt relatable and it hurt me inside. And no.. you are never ready for it.
That fight is an incredibly tough scene. Despite them having broken up at the end of season 1, this new fight happens after nearly a decade of watching then grow together as an amazing couple, and all because Marshall made a mistake that... He shouldn't have done it, but come on! Marshall is pretty much what I aspire to be for my wife. I don't really know how else to put it. Jason Segel really does look in despair, trying to figure a way out of that situation.
I grew up without a father. He was the devil himself. I did my ancestry test when I was older, and discovered that I had five other siblings on my dad's side. And he was a good dad to them. I feel that statement. If you were going to be a good dad, why couldn't you have been that for me?
Jason intentionally asked not to know Alyson’s line other than the last word “it” just so he could do a more authentic shocked reaction. He improvised the “I’m not ready for this” cuz he was actually shocked. The feels man.
Great top 10 but in my opinion you missed the scene when Ted asks Robin "Do you love me? no." then Marshall says to Robin to leave and the last part of the episode with shake it out by Florence + The machine is so emotional.
Nothing will ever compare to the disappointment of the finale Some shows may have meh last seasons but at least they have great finales (Friends, The Office, Parks and Rec)
That "I'm not ready for this" still gets me. I'm not an emotional person. I even tend to make people think that I'm unfeeling sometimes but that scene... Even watching it here made me tear up a little. I love this show.
I’ll never forger how amazing the show was and how horrible the end was. Ted and Robin were never right for each other and despite writing them that way the writers still crammed them together at the very last. Robin and Barney were such a better match, they made the other grow and managed to change what really hurt the other one, and even worse they spent literally ONE WHOLE SEASON building them up with their wedding. I loved them so much.
Actually the writers wrote Ted and Robin to be a wonderful couple who brought out the best in each other but just weren't ready to be together. Barney and Robin were toxic, dysfunctional and doomed to fail. True story. 😎
Marshall and Lilly's fight about Marshall taking the job as a judge, in season 9, was also a very intense scene. It's even more heartbreaking knowing that it is, arguably, the ONE mistake Marshall makes, because he's such an amazing person, and yet it is the worst fight they have.
10:20 Ted saying "there's one thing that your aunt robin never was, alone..." Actually robin was alone, right after breaking up with barney in 2016 she was alone, she actually didn't see her friends for like 14years. Thats the saddest thing of all. Think about it marshall and lily were together with their three kids Ted was with tracy and their two kids Barney was hurt but he actually had his daughter What about Robin? She was all alone, she may had career, but she didn't have love :(.
My father and I are very close, we talk every day. I'm thankful that he's still here. You never know when you'll see a loved one for the last time. Try to remind them that you love them whenever you can.
Wow, I have tears in my eyes. Again. That Number One Scene always gets me. Best acting in a sitcom ever. That "I'm not ready for this" feels so damn real.
Everyone says that but it's like know one even watches the show. all Barney did was lie so why do people say Ted and Robin would never work when u ship a couple like Robin and Barney. i never understood that. Their whole relationship was built on a lie. The way u people think is really confusing.
Oh my god the moment that ted try to make rain for robin is so awesome why you dont count it??😭😭 or the moment that robin said to ted i dont love you😭😭
