How I Met Your Mother?s signature quintet is swelling into a sextet.

TVLine has learned exclusively that Cristin Milioti, who was unmasked as the titular mom in this week?s season finale, will take the title of series regular during the comedy?s upcoming ninth and final season.

This marks the first time HIMYM will have expanded its core group of regulars beyond stars Josh Radnor, Alyson Hannigan, Neil Patrick Harris, Cobie Smulders and Jason Segel.

Series cocreator Carter Bays previously revealed that as HIMYM unspools its ninth and final season, viewers will become ?much better? acquainted with Milioti?s bass-playing cutie as the show tells ?the epic story of the longest wedding weekend ever.?

CBS entertainment president Nina Tassler later confirmed to 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.?

Well, that's an obvious. She is the mother and considering that fact that it's the last season and it's all going to be around the wedding weekend I don't see how she wouldn't be a regular :)

Yeah of course, good time to start a new thread :)

I'm not so sure what I think about the entire season being the wedding weekend. I wonder if they literally mean every single episode, or can we at least get an episode about them actually meeting and getting to know each other before we jump straight to getting married to the person that only had 5 seconds of screen time previously. Just seems a bit abrupt. I almost expect a timer at every commercial break, 24 style! :laugh:

 

I'll just have to wait and see though I guess!

 

Why does every thing I watch has to end? HIMYM and Breaking Bad. >.< 

Tell me about it. It seems like all the really good shows have ended in the last year or two or are ending in the next year or two, with little decent to replace them. I haven't found many new shows I find worth watching, but I've still got a backlog of shows to catch up on, so hopefully something will pop up to replace them eventually.

The only other one which hasn't ended is The Walk Dead, but yeah.. 

So am I the only one who thinks this final season could turn out awful? A quick google search tells me Milioti worked on broadway but that doesn't mean she can fit in with the others. Adding a new character to a show can make things awkward and throw off the group dynamics but to add one in the final season could mean it would go out on a low note instead of a high one and I'd hate to see that happen.

 

Four of the shows I watch are going off the air: HIMYM, Breaking Bad, Burn Notice and Psych :(  I guess that means I need to find some new shows to watch but the last couple of new shows I got into were cancelled before the first season was over.

    • 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.
