For nine years, as many seasons and 208 episodes, audiences watched eagerly as Ted Mosby slowly revealed to his kids how he met their mother. Theories were abound throughout the show's run, and with every twist of the narrative came more anticipation for the final reveal.
It was a shame to many, then, when the two-part season finale "Last Forever" finally hit their screens, promising an epic and hopefully satisfying ending but hitting many of the wrong notes.
How I Met Your Mother's finale (https://screenrant.com/how-i-met-your-mother-ending-works-not/) has since gone down in TV history as one of the worst show endings of all time. Any hope fans had for a happy conclusion that tied-up loose ends and made the last two hundred episodes worth it were sorely disappointed, and of course a lot of the finale's harshest critics have some good points about why it failed.
But is all as bad as we've been led to believe? It has been over six years since Last Forever aired, and there is still much Internet discussion about whether or the not it was a true failure as many critics and fans believed at the time.
