Okay so throughout this episode Ted and his wife//the mother are eating dinner at the Farhampton inn as they are seen visiting there many times throughout the season. I never understood why they said certain things and why they were even there in the first place besides it being the place that set them up… until this episode. At the end; Ted tells a story he finally realizes she doesn’t know, or rather a surprise. The fact that Robins mother did end up showing up last minute. The Mother responded with, “thats no surprise though, I mean no mother misses their daughters wedding!”. Ted immediately begins crying, and she calms him down and he promptly follows. This always stood out to me, but I thought he was referring to her mother or maybe his own? NOPE. They already knew she had cancer. They knew she was dying. They were enjoying their memories together one last time. Im ruined.

It's a tear in the "'libioflumflar linament."

Hi! I tried to look for similar posts in this subreddit but couldn't find one. I was rewatching the show for the 20th time and I realized there are some catchphrases that the characters use that are direct references to other shows or movies. The ones that come to my mind are "Good day!" which is Fez's catchphrase (That 70's Show) and "I gots to know" which is a line from Dirty Harry. Do you remember some others?

On my ??? rewatch I noticed Lilly and Patrice are wearing hot pink dresses in the wedding and this doesn’t seem like a Robin choice. Does anyone remember why they’re wearing pink or is it just another oddity of the show?

I JUST FINISHED HIMYM AND LETS JUST SAY… I have a few comments. 😭😭 why would they kill off tracy??? 😭😭 Not sure if im the only one but I hate the whole ted and robin timeline and ted deserved to be with someone way better than robin which HE WAS and they just put him right back to where he started with her again. Love Robin no hate she is quite frankly my favorite one after Marshall but her and Barney were definitely meant for each other the writers just wanted to bring up how she “needed” Ted every few episodes while Robin and Barney were engaged like its absolutely crazy. Just extremely mad over Tracy being killed off and Ted going back to Robin 😔

EDIT: omg so sorry just found out this subreddit HATES posts abt the ending just wanted to share my thoughts

I never got to watch this show ever until my ex introduced it to me watched it together and laugh and cried (mostly me) but now that I am watching it alone all over again made me realize how I missed her. She moved on and I was trying to let go until I watched S9 episode 17 “Sunrise”.. Learned how to let go of someone who you loved and knew you will never get her back.

The first time I watched HIMYM I hated him a lot, he was an annoying douche that was supposed to be the "Nice guy", the guy that would cry over and over again about Robin, but damn, I'm watching season 4 again and after he broke up with Stella he actually became more outgoing, less whiny and his relationship with Robin was more mature, there was a pretty good development right there, unfortunately they fucked that up in later seasons.

Marshall gave Stella a big speech about how much Ted loves Star Wars movies and asked if she can pretend to like it for the rest of her life because they are about to get married. But I don’t remember him saying anything about where Lily stands on the topic.

BTW Cobbie is on fire

You have no idea how to play bridge do you?

Was it ever explained why Lily made such a big deal about getting the 88s to play for their wedding… but then they ended up hiring a DJ?

It's 2024 where Friends is getting a 4K bluray release but HIMYM doesn't even have a fullhd bluray version! Disney is the worst company at releasing and restoring movies and TV shows to discs! 20TH CENTURY FOX should never have been bought out by Disney.

Who agrees?

Chloe’s coworker states “you can’t miss her, she has a purple umbrella”

It gives into the yellow/purple theory too!
