I just think it's funny when people get caught up in the plot of a sitcom. It was all just a means for comedy. The show wasn't really about Ted meeting their mother, and that was pretty clear from the start. It was just a funny premise to have a show about post college people.

That is an argument to be made for shows like Seinfeld or It's Always Sunny where there is not meant to be any character growth. But HIMYM is a comedy with plenty of dramatic moments. I don't see why a comedy can't be held the similar standards of a drama when it comes to story telling. The plot of this sitcom is part of what drew people to the show.
