Cobie Smulders was on
The Late Show tonight and she revealed that Craig Thomas and Carter Bays, who created How I Met Your Mother, knew that the show was going to end the way it since the pilot. So if you are pissed by how it ended, then know that it was always set to conclude that way.
I think it also explains why we didn’t meet the mother until the final season, they didn’t want us to get too attached to the woman they killed off without any explanation.
I hope that CBS picks up the creators new show How I Met Your Dad because I know I will not watch it. I have suffered through HIMYM ever since the smoking episode just to see how it would end. Now that we know what a depressing ending the show had, I am not going to torture myself and watch their new show that will be just as disappointing as the mothership.
