There still is a chance that there will be a twist and its not her, however look back at the beginning of the season, Ted was sitting at that very train stop saying he met her there. It could be her, it could be someone else at that train stop. As far as the wedding not being shown: People would be ****ed if they showed the wedding and not the mother and be ****ed if they show the mother and not the wedding. There is only so much that can be shown in a 30 min spot. They could have done an hour, but we would have much less cliff hangers. Im quite pleased with the so called mother, why do people have to be so judgmental about her, she hasn't even had a line yet haha

I don't think they would keep pushing the yellow umbrella through the latter half of the series then throw a monkey wrench and now there is another girl with a yellow umbrella.

I was very disappointed with the last episode. it was just very boring.

Yeah, I had a bit of the same feeling. I think they thought "the reveal" would be enough to sustain the whole episode. When it ended I kind of sat there and thought "That's it?".

Still, it does set up for an interesting final season. I think maybe we've become to expect a little too much out of all season finales. This one wasn't that exciting, but it did what it needed.

I haven't watched for a season or 2 now, the Mother isn't how I pictured though

Me either. It doesn't fit to be honest. Just look at the almost- Mothers. Robin, Victoria, Stella. What do they all have in common? They are all hot. lol.

Victoria was good before going to Germany. I found her pretty fat, after she returned. And Stella wasn't that stellar either.

So Victoria should've stayed in New York. lol. Should've listened to Ted. lol.

I'm probably not gonna be able to take the Mother seriously, as the only other show I've seen Cristin Miloti in was 30 Rock...

Still, looking forward to the final season. :) Can't believe I took so long to actually check out this show.

CBS entertainment president Nina Tassler has now confirmed for TVLine that Season 9?s entire run will, in fact, span the wedding weekend and just the wedding weekend, as the comedy details ?how each character, before Ted, meets the mother. So, they each meet her independently before he does.?

Name of the show is 'how I met' not 'how I get married' :p

If we go based on this logic, then why has it taken 7 years to find how who the freaking mother is? Has anyone told a story this long to their kids with so much pointless drivel?

      Opinion. All you did was blame Democrats for everything. You offered nothing but a hit piece to support your pro Trump, anti union right wing ideology.

      Excuse me for having an opinion, fella'... (Why am I not surprised?...) Congrats on your very informative post however...

      By the sounds of that wall of Fox News propaganda gibberish attacking the Democratic Party you've already had plenty of "juices" flowing this morning. You've ruined what could have been a productive comment thread.

      (Topic to get the juices flowing this Sunday morning!...) Actually, the situation has almost nothing to do with "lack of skills", especially since assembly-line skills can be taught to anyone, including Americans, certainly. Rather, the inadequacy-to-impossibility of large-scale tech manufacturing in America today, and the reasons why America finds tech manufacturing completely onerous in the 21st century, has to do with politically driven laws amid a plethora of non-scientific, utterly politicized "science-fact" that is patently false, punitive business taxation at every turn, an array of judicial fines of unimaginable scope and complexity, and, last but not least, American unionization strictures that serve to actually slay job creation and hobble all such manufacturing endeavors in America before they can get off the ground. Globalism emerged, they tell us, as the needed answer to American hubris and an unholy American drive to excel. Unless one is buried under mounds of political propaganda, it's easy to see the absurdity of labeling the employees of SpaceX, for instance, as "unskilled labor"... Etc. ad infinitum. At one time in the recent past, American manufacturing prowess was the envy of the world in a wide variety of technical fields! The current federal and state government roadblocks against America becoming competitive globally in tech manufacturing are considerable, it's true, as anyone with a working brain knows. But remarkably, that is only half the story! The other half of the story is, of course, the corporations themselves... Chinese tech manufacturing is simply unassailable in terms of profits, because the Chinese government wants to see its tech manufacturing second-to-none globally so that no companies/nations can compete in terms of ROI, and China has completely succeeded in that goal. Let's tic-off a few things: *Chinese tariff policies are set according to what is considered best for Chinese business, Chinese employees, and the Chinese people. Huge difference with how things are done with tariffs in the US--as the US government (SCOTUS in this case, Congress in others) plainly feels that tariffs are "unfair" for the limited number of citizens who may pay them, whereas nothing is "unfair" when Congress considers the Personal Income Tax rates to be infinitely hike-able, along with infinitely enlarging annual budget deficits. *The Chinese government boldly subsidizes Chinese companies to artificially amplify their profits. *The Chinese government deliberately refuses to avidly demonize Chinese businesses and does not consider Chinese businesses "the enemy", so very unlike American (D)s these days. *Chinese labor laws and businesses are allowed to set their own labor policies according to what Chinese companies consider is best for companies and their employees... Simply put, American workers in tech manufacturing are not allowed to set their own labor policies! * One additional problem corporations have that I also do not sympathize with is they don't want to pay to train their American employees. They could easily do so, but would rather not have to pay for it. I find that pathetic, actually. It is the height of hypocrisy for Americans to decry working conditions in China while simultaneously ensuring that American products are manufactured in China, not in the US, simply to maximize profits. There is nothing wrong with making a profit, of course, absolutely nothing. But there is plenty wrong with attempts to normalize hypocrisy of this kind! But rank hypocrisy and the (D) party in the US are longtime bedfellows... The current government in Washington is working overtime to see if it can toss out the horribly poor, failed economic policies of the past, while the (D)s still in Washington work very hard to bring back the stupidity whenever possible. With the right policies in place, America can be an infinitely competitive manufacturer.
