How I Met Your Mother: Last Forever: Part Two (2014)
Watch It Again
To all of the people who weren't pleased with the finale: Watch it again. I watched the finale for the first time when it was aired, and I was having mixed emotions, and I'm sure some other people feel that way. Most people hated it, and i didn't hate it, I just wasn't as impressed as I thought it would be. Guys, they planned this ending from the beginning, they already gave out hints about the ending and they already had footage for it. I think another reason that we didn't like the ending is that we were expecting it. After "Vesuvius" we all created theories about the mother dying, and we were ready for it. So I wasn't very shocked. But when I watched it a few days later a second time, I felt better. I thought a lot about the way the episode ended (the mother dying and Robin ending up being with Ted), and I finally realized that not everything has a happy ending. Ted's story is exactly like the mothers, Traci finds a person that she loves more than anyone, and they don't last forever, and when she meets Ted, he begins to love her more than anyone, and they don't last forever. What does last forever, is their love. There love is more powerful than anything else to them, and it is more powerful than anything. But when the mother dies, six years later Ted finishes his story. SIX years later, so even though Ted and the kids went through a very hard time and will always love her, they must move on. In life, we all have to move on at one point. And I felt more comfortable with Ted being with Robin because they are meant for each other, and if you re- watch the ending, you can tell that Ted and his kids have moved on, and the kids LOVE Robin, they keep telling Ted that they are so obvious. The kids weren't lying either, Ted wasn't telling a story about how he met their mother, he was telling a story of an amazing journey with five friends, and Ted meets a beautiful girl, Traci, who he falls in love with. I always thought that God put them together for a reason, so that Ted could finally find someone who gave him a life changing experience, and that the mother could finally love again before going up and seeing Max. I saw somebody else on here say this, and I am beginning to agree with it and think of it as the moral of this story.
"All good things come to an end, but sometimes the universe gives it back to you, just not in the way you expected."
This show has given me joy, life lessons, tears, and a great outlook on life. I will never forget this show, and I will always be proud of everybody who worked with it to make such a great program.

How I Met Your Mother: Gary Blauman (2014)
I really hope that they pull it off...
First off, I would like to say that Ted and the mothers relationship on their first date was great, I feel like they really are meant for each other, but I haven't quite seen enough yet. Other than that, this episode wasn't solid. I don't think that anyone likes the fact that the gang is drifting apart, when we've seen them together for 9 years. I might feel more comfortable with this situation if the script was better.
This episode did have it's laughs and moments, the main problem is pacing. This episode and a few other episodes this season have horrible pacing, and that's the reason why everyone is always disappointed with these episodes. I am not giving up hope though, this is my favorite show and I've always loved it!

How I Met Your Mother: Unpause (2014)
Faith Restored
After watching this episode, I felt so relieved. After I watched the last episode, I was disappointed. I didn't hate the episode, it had it's laughs, but overall it was just corny and disappointing. I almost lost faith in how I met your mother after watching the last episode, because season 9 hasn't been very good so far. But this episode, was clever, funny, heartbreaking, and it left the audience in shock and curious. My favorite part was how Barney told the gang what he did for a living, and how he ratted out his greatest nemesis. But Marshall and Lily's fight was heartbreaking, I was honestly not sure who's side should be on. So overall, this episode was great, and it restored my faith in this show, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
