if you think he shouldn't do it

Unless this is the best April Fool’s joke in the history of tv, I will sum up my anger and disappointment for the How I Met Your Mother finale. 

1. Great, you have the end game in mind when you wrote the story but don’t film it at the beginning and stick to it just because. By doing that, you disregard the developments and disrespect the viewers. 

2. Don’t spend 9 years convincing us that Ted & Robin are not good for each other while making us fall in love with Barney & Robin and take it away in an hour. That’s just cruel. 

3. Don’t dedicate a whole freaking season for a wedding that only resulted in divorce in the first 15 mins of the finale. Seriously, I loved the growth and maturity in Barney & Robin. They made each other better people and their chemistry was so much more fun and convincing. 

4. Don’t set up the story to be about the mother and have us (& Ted) fall in love with her only to kill her off and eventually lead Ted back to Robin. Not cool. It really was “How I Met Your Mother But Really, I Love Robin”

5. Don’t talk about the Bro Code and have it be so important and eventually have Ted break it. You don’t date/marry your best friend’s wife, whatever the reason may be especially when you already let her go as a giant balloon. 

6. And how come Marshall & Lily are the only good friends trying to keep everyone together? There were barely any scenes of the gang together. I understand that life gets busy and things changed but don’t spend the last season telling me that it’s hard to find good people and when you do, hold on to them for it to end like this. Robin was too busy with work and when she wasn’t with Ted or Barney, she didn’t even try. Lame. 

7. Don’t disrespect women by having Barney’s babymama be a number. I do love the idea that the only thing that can change Barney is a baby girl but how we got there was just grotesque. I was angry at how they treated Barney’s character especially after “The End of the Aisle”. That was so perfect and then it became, WTF. 

8. Finally, don’t spend 9 years romanticizing things only to crush it with cynicism. Now it’s just a bunch of ridiculous bullshit. 

Seriously?!? 

Someone throw all 3 books at them!!!
