And I have a funny feeling they will and 20 years from now they're still going to be married and happily so. I also think the Mother's still going to be alive and well too and she and Ted will also still be married and happy. Crazy theories I know!

I'm finding it really strange too. Then again I'm still baffled that there are people who really think Ted and Robin have a chance together. (She's going to marry Barney. Let it go.) Why would the show want to end on such a depressing note? Why is it so hard to believe that Ted just wishes he could have met the woman…

This is a nice idea but Ted already said Coat Check Girl is not the Mother in "Okay, Awesome!" the episode she was introduced in. The tragedy with this appearance is that Ted didn't even try to approach her and saw absolutely no point in it because "she's either going to get tired of me or I will of her." He threw…

"To the end of my days and beyond. You'll see." Sounds to me like he was quoting his wedding vows.

They have a great friendship.

Yeah…no.

PB's age has been mentioned (18) so I think ancestor is more likely.

Actually the only thing we saw that didn't really happen was the future Teds and Barnies (and Ted running to The Mother at the end). Everything else we saw with Robin and Marshall battling and the coat check girl happened it just all happened years ago.

Okay am I the only one who thinks the idea that the Mother will turn out to be dead is just kind of ridiculous and I don't think that monologue somehow loses anything if she's not. I think telling this story to his kids just made Ted remember what a low and unhappy point he was at his life less than 2 months before…

I've heard this possibility mentioned a few times and I just don't think so. Besides the fact that How I Met Your Mother is for the most part a very optimistic and light hearted show and I seriously doubt they'd want to have such a downer reveal if Ted was telling his kids the story of how he met their dead mother do…

Okay Ted's monologue to his wife was freaking beautiful and for just a second I thought the show might let us see her.

Honestly I think the best Mickey can hope for is having some kind of arrangement with The Russian where he's allowed to get his needs met elsewhere and she's willing to look the other way.

The more I think about it the more I just don't see Mickey and Ian ending up together. Yeah they love each other and in a perfect world they'd get to be together but that's not enough. I think Mickey's primary concern at this time is his survival. He's never going to be the out and proud boyfriend Ian wants and…

The only thing that makes me think that might not happen is that it's been shown she and Veronica are very close and I doubt she wants to destroy that relationship. Also any sane person would know that nothing will ever break up Kev and V. So for that reason and her age I think a miscarriage is likelier.

I'm glad they finally answered the question of who paid for Carl's braces because I was honestly wondering.

I suspect either she'll decide she wants to keep the baby or she'll end up miscarrying.

I seriously expected the last scene to be Jody being lead away in handcuffs after revealing to the doctors how he "cured" Karen and it really should have been.

It makes total sense that Pam should become a field agent and it makes very little sense that Cyril is still one. Honestly once Ray got back the ability to walk I don't know why they kept him on since he was originally promoted to replace Ray. I assume Archer will be keeping Kazak?

I considered Seinfeld but decided to exclude it because of the Jerry/Elaine hook up. Romantic or not they did hook up. I was thinking more of shows where there were no hook ups romantic or just physical among the main cast.

You're getting insanely worked up over something that you should have accepted was going to happen a long time ago. Nick and Jess hardly came out of nowhere. I get where you're coming from and I agree that platonic male and female friendships can exist but and it's annoying when shows don't allow them to and force…
