What the heck???

After all that, Robin isn't pregnant? Not only that, but she can NEVER have kids! Is this show getting more and more heavy duty???

Last night's episode is part of master plan, says co-creator Carter Bays. "This was an important moment we wanted to hit for the series arc," he says. PLUS: What bullsh*t! (http://www.hitfix.com/blogs/whats-alan-watching/posts/how-i-met-your-m other-symphony-of-illumination-how-she-met-your-father), and in defense of the twist (http://www.avclub.com/articles/symphony-of-illumination,66033/).

They have been dropping hints for years that viewers keep missing, I wrote a thread (as usual no replies or the next subject was off-topic)...going back to an episode from two years ago (it is somewhere on this board)...there is an episode where Ted says to his kids at the beginning "You know when you go to New York and there is so much to see?".....well then obviously they all move out of their precious NYC...he wouldn't say that to his kids if they lived in the city....too much has been made of Ted's dislike of New Jersey, so the ultimate irony is that is where he winds up with the family and NJ burbs!

This season, Marshall & Lily are obviously going to live in the house......and last night (12/5/11) it was said clearly that Robin & Barney wind up together and maybe even adopt.

for those who didn't sign up for a "soap opera", you picked the wrong show billing itself as a "love story in reverse" from episode 1. And for those who want sitcom antics mixed with the reality of life, Barney is the perfect "cartoon sitcom unreal character", c;mon the man that can't appear in a bad picture?

I think it has been consistent and brillant especially the continuity usage of the George Harrison song "Let It Roll" 3 times so far everytime they show the wedding of what I believe is "Robin & Barney".

I missed that episode. I was working. I must watch and catch up. I'm a little disappointed that they are possibly coupling Robin and Barney but I'll see how this works.
