Same here, though I started maybe 3 or 4 years ago. I missed the first 3 or 4 seasons though.

And I agree with you that it's about the journey to the mother and not the actual mother herself, but I think it's stupid for you to disallow people from being annoyed with the show. It's about the journey, but the mother is still an important part of that. And shite, I don't care much about who the actual mother is, but I still thought it wasn't a very good season finale for a TV show.

I do agree with this though:

It was never as great as you all made it out to be....and it isnt as bad as you act like it is now.

I've always thought it was a pretty solid TV show. Apparently the early seasons were much better (that's usually how you hear it), but I've seen sone early episodes, and it seems like it's pretty similar to now.

The only BAD thing about the show now is they made Robins character a huge downer...she used to be fun. Now she looks and acts tired and depressed all the time.

I agree with that. And oddly enough it seems to coincide with her and Barney being together.

Sums up my thoughts pretty much.

And also I feel like it was a huge middle finger to the people like us that watch this show.
"Here's the mother. Randomly. Come back next season and see why she matters!"

It was so forced in at the end to show her face, after all this time.

I agree with those that think this isn't the mother. 1) They love the shite out of misdirection on this show. 2) That chick isn't regularly stealing guys from Rachel Bilson unless she has one hell of a personality. It's either bad casting or misdirection.

I have seen all the old episodes. The wife dvrs the re-airings on fx, Lovett, and Fox.

I am fairly certain I have seen every episode.

The only thing the earlier seasons has in the later ones is the characters were less mature. WhIch is to be expected.


I actually like seeing Barney grow up. Robin is the only one that has gotten bad imo.


Its probably het Canadian shining through.

And her awfulness coincided with finding out she can't have kids....not Kevin. Kevin just was around at that time.
