A really great sitcom with LOTS of heart. The great thing about this show was that EACH one of its main cast was awesome in their respective roles and really pulled them off. The Gang .i.e Ted, Robin, Marshall, Lilly and ofcourse BARNEY STINSON all were great characters and their adventures throughout 9 WHOLE seasons were awesome. The development of their relationships, their hilarious rules, their histories etc everything was a delight to watch (for the most part at least). My favourite of them all was Barney. His BRO Codes, his coolness, his awesome stories were the best part of the show. Probably my favourite sitcom character so far. Really liked how they slowly developed him over the seasons. Granted that the quality of the show dipped in the last couple of seasons, and they REALLY DRAGGED THE LIVING HELL OUT OF IT, but even then, it never ventured into lame territory. Even at its worst, it was still a good show, and that really is something considering its length. The finale of any show is of the utmost importance because that is how youll leave the show and it leaves a lasting impression, especially if you love that show. Sorry to say, finale of this sitcom simply CRAPPED all over it. Extremely disappointing. I dont even know what the writers were thinking, VERY SLOPPY work. I really could rant on about it for hours but doing so will spoil it so Ill leave it at that on the open, even though spoiling it wont really matter because it SIMPLY SUCKS. One thing Im glad the show did perfectly, was the MOM. I just immediately liked her when they FINALLY showed her. She was a great character and really felt like a perfect match for Ted. Wish there were more episodes of her. Overall, even with the HORRIBLE finale and extremely dragged last couple of seasons, it is still a great sitcom and a must watch. Will definitely miss it. It was Legen wait-for-it...... dary. Self five. :D 8.5/10
