How I Met Your Mother Review

If you want to find out how Ted meets the mother of his children, don’t watch this show.

But that’s the title! So misleading, right? You’d think the whole show would be about how a young couple fell in love. It’s not. Sure Ted gets married, but not until the last episode. This show is primarily about the ups and downs of dating, managing a career, and trying to be an adult.

How I Met Your Mother is the perfect show for any young adult who just wants to hear a bunch of random stories that may or may not have a point to them. This series has nine seasons. It’s the show that would never end.

But honestly, isn’t that what what your 20s are? The decade that would never end? Most people make huge life decisions and change the most between the ages of 20 and 30. There are some great stories in this series. It’s a constant montage of young adult life… just slightly over dramatized.

I love this series, it’s my go to show and most watched item in my Netflix favorites list. I love the way the characters tell their stories. The number of glimpses into the past and future make the stories a little confusing and highly entertaining. The number of inside jokes, dorky habits, and slap bets are what keep me going.

---

So by the end of it, I honestly did not care who Ted’s wife was. I just wanted to hear a good story.
