HIMYM Finale


OH, BARNEY/ROBIN! WE GOT MAKING OUT!!!!

I think this really was the right way to go: Robin knows, both their commitment issues were on full (HILARIOUS) display, and, oh yeah, WE GOT MAKING OUT!!!

I was hoping for a little more with them at the end, but I loved what we got. They can go in so many directions from here. My interpretation is they'll be in some kind of relationship next year, but given that neither can say "I love you" without the other freaking out, I don't think they're in danger of getting married and opening that B&B anytime soon.

(ALSO. It gives me all kinds of fic ideas. Isn't nice when shows are considerate like that?)

Stupid Josh Radnor spoiled me for part about the mother. I guess we'll have to see how that works? I've had plenty of professors who I was just a name to, but would Ted really be that kind of teacher? Hm. I mean, maybe (probably) he won't fall in love with her until (much?) later, but it certainly seems like he'd have to "meet" her now.

I kind of rolled my eyes at leaping over the other building at first, but, you know what? It works. It's not like Ted has ever been the most reliable story teller.

And we got the goat!

Now let's see how Gossip Girl treats me!

I've heard that from other people. I've just had so many shows go on for longer that they should, and it really does affect my opinion of the whole. Much better to go out on top! I love where The OC ended 'cause it was a great season, gave us our happy ending, and left us with a good idea of where everyone was going.

Haha, but the OC is a little different cause it sucked for 2 seasons.

Only one for me! I liked s2. Fortunately, it never did anything to really piss me off. It just got boring!

I'm not even sure if I've seen all of season three... I remember tuning in for Marissa's death...

You didn't miss much! When I re-watched it in the fall, I liked it better than the first time through, but it's by far the weakest season.
