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?

    • You've tried DuckDuckGo and Brave Search, now get serious with SearXNG

      For some reason I suddenly have the urge to go shopping at Sears.
    • You've tried DuckDuckGo and Brave Search, now get serious with SearXNG

      By Nas · Posted

      So I did a quick test based on 3+ different public instances from the litany at searx.space ... and it spins everything rather differently. It seems that SearXNG is a meta-search engine (queries multiple search indexes rather than only Google's or Bing's or Wikipedia's or Reddit's) that operates in two modes: > public instances ... each instance opens itself to outside users who piggyback on its cached search history; this instance's own identity becomes known/tracked but end-users are hidden similar to an anonymization proxy; this instance's querying of major search indexes may be API based [rated limited, blocked, etc.]). > private instances ... your private install/instance that itself queries multiple (configurable) search indexes of crawled web content; every major Search Engine associates all traffic to your private instance (so your traffic is tracked via network usages) but client-side tracking (your own browser/computer specs) is flushed because it's a "server" doing the querying rather than your browser. My test asked the same 1 question to the 3+ engines and they all returned vastly different results: some had CAPTCHA failures against Google, some had failures against Wikipedia, and the actual results were also different -- some had auto-complete enabled, others returned a wikipedia highlighted excerpt despite the Wikipedia failure (hinting at results being cached from previous keyword matching), and others just gave an Are-You-Human non-CAPTCHA loop before returning random results. So this begs the caveat: Search query results will vary based on which instance is used because every instance queries the other search indexes separate (and thus its results are influenced on that instance's aggregate search history and index-access limitations). The major distinctions for SearXNG versus DDG or Brave: > The search UI is 'untracked' since no UI trackers are baked-in which would phone home or lay cookies into your browser (for DDG/Brave usage stats), > There is no 'crawler' that canvasses the Internet to discover fresh content (it leaves that to the major search indexes), > Queries multiple search indexes ("meta-search engine") based on the configurations and usage history of the server instance, > Privacy-friendly due to its ability to shield user tracking via standing up a non-local server instance connectable to major VPN providers: queries would all appear to come from general VPN/Proxy providers rather than your private instance (whether installed locally or on your own VPS in the cloud). PS: I've previously come across specialized search engines of this nature that indexes searches across media assets like YT, OF, etc. SearXNG seems to be a good backbone...if the rate-limiting/captcha/etc. issues were resolved.
    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      For a guy who claims to hate Farage and the ignorant, gullible, rightwing racist skinheads sponsored by Putin that his lies represent, you sure are quoting them time and time and time again, mate. I guess you're conveniently ignoring the fact that your country and commonwealth just happened to work much better when it was still part of the E.U.? Denial isn't just a river in Egypt.

      Do you live in the U.K? Do any of the people here that are against the UK leaving the E.U, live in the U.K? If not then why are you bothered? If you do live here then it is a different thing . Brexit was a good idea, should have done it years before, it was done badly, but the idea was good. You are saying the same thing as remainers do, oh we did what Putin wanted, we listened to the lies and Farage. I hate Farage and never believed most of what he said, certainly did not believe the £350m a week for the NHS. But we did pay a lot of money to the E.U and yes some of it came back, but what is the point of paying it out for only some of it to come back? Get out of the E.U, no money to them and in theory we can use the money to do things in the country. I said in theory, but our governments are a total and complete waste of space. No matter what colour rosette they wear. You and others say it was a mistake and yet the two main parties in the U.K are not looking at rejoining the EU, I wonder why that is? I was not tricked by anyone. Makes no odds now, we are out and have been for 10 years, what we need is a decent government to run the country. All they do is shout at each other like a load of kids and seems to do nothing and make this country more into a police and nanny state. Getting more like China all the time.
