Well talk about bringin it to finale!!! That was THE best HIMYM (or for that matter any other TV series I watched)finaly IMHO. I was laughin out loud through out the episode (and didn't even stop to answer the gf call ;) ).
I especially liked how Ted brings out the humor almost surpassing Neil Patrick Harris (but he stayed on top with his magic trick)
Loved the Ted's E-Mail that was some funny stuff.
Robin as we all know will be with my man Barnicle but it would be super fun to see that happen.
All in all this finale had it all, jokes,heart,truth searching. One of the best ways to end a season which has been dissapointing and make us hang on to HIMYM atleast for another season.

Just putting this out there, but what if it's at Victoria's wedding that he meets the mother?

A disastrous season finale. Unfunny implausible, utterly lacking in the heart that often redeems HIMYM's lesser outings.
Instead we discover that Ted, far from being a romantic with an ocassional rougish streak now looks to be little better than a sleazeball with no conscience about doing unto others what was done unto him. At a stroke, he is no longer a symapthetic character, but is just a junior league version of Barney.
This season started awful, improved only slightly in the middle, and now has ended as it began - vapid, stalled and unfunny. It is time to have Ted meet his dream girl and put this once great show out of its misery.

I really hope Barney and Robin don't end up together, him and Quinn are perfect for each other!

Warum hasst ihr denn alle Barney und Robin so sehr? Die beiden sind mein Lieblingspaar schon seit ich die Show gucke und es hätte keinen Sinn für Barney gemacht jemand anderen zu heiraten (auch wenn ich Quinn lieber mag als Nora).

wooow read that: which is shocking enough as it is. Then, a couple minutes later in the show, we flash forward and we see Robin is the bride. It’s a huge bit of magical misdirection that we want people to tune into season 8 to see how we got there. We love telling stories in crazy ways in How I Met Your Mother, so we’re jumping ahead and showing you the ending and we’re going to show you how we get there.
Oh man... well they better make a good story for those 2.. i just cant enjoy that!
May 15th, 2012 1:50 PM
@ Juliet I hope u are right! I dont think we know everything yet!
Thats the sense of a cliffhanger ;)
May 15th, 2012 1:41 PM
2)Yes, Ted met Victoria at a wedding, but we also know that she was Cindy's roommate, and that she was in Ted's (wrong) class
3) I dont want Victoria to be the bride anyway... they should go back to her wedding ;)
4) Marvin WAITFORIT Ericson? WOW how cool is that!!! =)
5) Did Robin ever meet that guy again? the one she met when Ted bought his boots? and she met him in the club aswell?? I hope they didnt forget that
6) I CANT BELIEVE i have to wait so long now...
May 15th, 2012 1:39 PM
1) NO! I always wanted Robin and Barney - i swear! and when quinn came around i didnt like her, but now i love her and Barney. Dont get me wrong Robin and Barney are awesome, but not as awesome as Barney and Quinn! If u really think about it - its true. And now i cant be happy for them + they have 1 season left, they have to show us how barney and quinn broke up and why, how robin and him got back together etc. even if they say: 1 month later its a lot of work (wow next season is gonna be legandary - so much to tell, every episode is gonna be awesome ;) ) i hope..
well but maybe its a double wedding, or barney says no last minute.. i dont know why and i NEVER EVER thought i would say that: but i want Quinn to be the bride not Robin

We've seen Barney and Robin as a couple, they just didn't work. I don't know why the writers keep putting them back togather.
May 15th, 2012 12:01 PM
At this point I'm starting to feel like Charlie Brown trying to kick the football. Everytime I think we're actually going to be given something meaningful with Ted and the Mother, the writers just string us along with some pointless tangent. And this one just makes Ted look like a bad guy, stealing Victoria in the middle of a meltdown and all. If I weren't so committed to the show at this point, I'd wash my hands of the whole thing.
May 15th, 2012 11:40 AM
I hope barney doesn't marry Robin. I really don't like them as a couple. Maybe she getting married to someone else. Or maybe it's her wedding day with barney, but the wedding goes wrong, like the episode say, and they finally decide to not get married.
And i hope, and think, that victoria isn't the mother.

Two words guys:
...not yet.
May 15th, 2012 11:09 AM
It just can't be victoria... Ted says in the episode of the roommate, that at the the time, he didn't know it, but this would be the first time he'd hear a description of his future wife... : ''she's a whore'' ! Stop it with thinking they could bend it to make it work for Victoria, it's just impossible.

I'm so happy the bride is Robin. Quinn and Barney never had a scene like the one Robin and Barney had last night when he checked that she was okay with him being engaged. Ever since Zip Zip Zip I knew Robin and Barney had something special. I never could get behind Quinn or Nora, they were nice enough but not meant for Barney.
May 15th, 2012 10:29 AM
hy can't it be Victoria? I seriously think they just revealed "The Mother" last night. The timing of the story makes sense with why he started telling his kids in 2005, the year he met Robin, yet also when he met Victoria. They met at a wedding back then when she was a caterer (don't think the producers ever said which wedding Ted meets "The Mother" at) plus he may have texted her right after he got her number I'd have to go back and check. She could have left her yellow umbrella at the St Patrick's day party after returning from Germany when she then enrolled in graduate school which was why she was in the economic's class Ted accidently started teaching and Victoria may be the roommate to his ex-girlfriend when he saw her ankle going into the bathroom. Victoria could also be the perfect match from the dating service when he stood up the chance to meet in order to get back with Robin. I don't see any of this as a far stretch. Personally I think there is great chemistry between Ted a

Why do you people all think that Robin is the bride? I got a theory that the wedding is actually Barney's and Quinn's. And maybe Ted just caught Robin trying on Quinn's dress? The wedding went horribly wrong - probably because Robin ruined it somehow?
I used to like the idea about Barney and Robin getting together, but now I really really like Quinn. She's perfect for Barney. Robin seems quite selfish lately
May 15th, 2012 9:05 AM
I think they're trying way too hard to surprise us. First, there's this awesome, sweet proposal to a girl who is a great match for Barney. Then we see Robin as the bride at the wedding. Meanwhile, Victoria shows up in a wedding dress. Then Ted decides to run off with her. Then he decides to take her to the wedding. Then he decides to drive past the church. I think it's time to stop sending the audience through mazes and start taking the romances more seriously. Esp, don't show us a charming proposal and then 15 minutes later tell us that Quinn isn't the bride.
May 15th, 2012 8:36 AM
"which bring us to the story of a wedding day that went horribly wrong" that's what the narrator is saying in this last episode
May 15th, 2012 8:35 AM
@Drawn - Barney's half sister would make sense, of only because it would make "Uncle Barney" and "Aunt Robin" make A LOT more sense than just being friendly references. They'd actually be family. Plus if she's in college... that matches the Ted teaching.

MOTHER THEORY:
I believe that the mother is Barney's half sister and have done so since before the end of last season and this is why:
- Ted meets her at Barney's wedding ("I wouldn't have met her if it wasn't for a wedding...the last wedding I ever thought I'd be at" cut to Barney....this seems pretty clear and why would he be surprised by Claudia and Stuart's marriage): The half sister would be there
- She was in the class that Ted thought was his: We find out his half sister in is college in the 'Legendaddy' episode
- She was the roommate in the 'Girls Versus Suits' episode: She's in college and therefore possible she is the roommate
- We have never seen the mother - Despite being mentioned we have never seen Barney's half-sister.

No Victoria can;t be the mother as much as it pains me because it doesn't make sense with what we've been told about her but I still love the prospect of seeing Ted and Victoria give it another go as her storyline in season 1 is still my favorite HIMYM storyline
Also, I'm very please that Robin is marrying Barney and I'm looking forward to seeing how they get there.
And I'm definitely giving my son the middle name of Waitforit!!!!!
May 15th, 2012 7:56 AM
Ted never specifically says that he met the mother at Barney's wedding, his exact words were "The day I met your mother was the day of a wedding".
Remember waaaaaaaaay back in Season 1 when Ted first met Victoria... at Claudia and Stuart's wedding?
Knowing how much the writers love to pull a full 180 on us, I wouldn't be surprised if they'd planned to lead us all off the trail by cutting sections of Barney's wedding in there.
I knew deep down that Quinn wasn't the bride way back when she told Barney that they only thing that would get her to quit her job was if she ever got married, that's way too obvious for the show. Then again, the whole Robin/Barney thing is also way too obvious so there's always the possibility it's a double wedding and Robin and Barney are marrying other people.
I'm still trying to figure out if they specifically said that the mother was in the classroom at the same time Ted was teaching... at the end of season 4 Ted said "your mother was in that cl
