Outside of the blatant misogyny (https://medium.com/@vcasaisvila/barney-versus-ted-the-real-misogyny-of-himym-a598164a17d0) and dated (https://screenrant.com/himym-how-met-mother-bad-jokes/) gender (https://www.looper.com/436553/the-most-problematic-moments-in-how-i-met-your-mother/) jokes (https://www.reddit.com/r/HIMYM/comments/c16mng/how_i_met_your_mother_sexist/), did were any of the acting (https://www.reddit.com/r/HIMYM/comments/27itm0/rank_each_of_the_five_main_actors_by_acting_skill/) or show ("]premises[/URL] on the [URL="https://screenrant.com/how-i-met-your-mother-biggest-flaws-issues/) really good (https://screenrant.com/himym-how-met-your-mother-ways-sitcom-problematic-positive/)? Have you ever seen any message (https://www.lifehack.org/articles/communication/7-life-lessons-ive-learned-from-how-met-your-mother.html) of value? And did any character (https://gregorytcala.medium.com/character-arc-analysis-how-i-met-your-mother-9da37bf88777) development seem to be forgotten (https://screenrant.com/how-met-your-mother-show-worse-over-seasons-barney-playbook/) in between what's supposed to be big plot (https://screenrant.com/how-i-met-your-mother-forgotten-storylines/) points?

I didn't watch much of it, but found the Robin Sparkles episodes amusing. Some episodes felt like they were just copying Friends. And I think most people didn't like the ending.

It was very much a friends remake with no Phoebe. I agree, Robin Sparkles was funny
