Ted has fallen in love. It all started when his best friend, Marshall, drops the bombshell that he plans to propose to longtime girlfriend Lily, a kindergarten teacher. Suddenly, Ted realizes that he had better get a move on if he hopes to find true love. Helping him in the quest is Barney, a friend with endless -- often outrageous -- opinions, a penchant for suits and a foolproof way to meet women. When Ted meets Robin, he is sure it's love at first sight, but the affair fizzles into friendship. Voice-over by Bob Saget ("Full House") tells the story through flashbacks.

Zack Handlen AV Club This season has frustrated me with its tonal inconsistencies and occasionally clunky writing, but I still love the cast and the concept, and I still very much enjoy hanging out with these characters. Rated: B- Mar 27, 2018 Full Review Amos Barshad New York Magazine/Vulture All in all, a solid opening episode. But even if it wasn't, it's a brand-new season, which means we are - until further notice - on a moratorium from complaining about this show. Mar 27, 2018 Full Review Donna Bowman AV Club The juxtaposition of those two images-the successful conception of a new life, and the destruction of an old building-is apt for a finale that embraces a lot of the oddness of this season and tries to find productive ways to build on the paradoxes. Rated: B Nov 28, 2017 Full Review Robert Canning IGN Movies "Big Days" felt like a fantastic step forward, while effortlessly reminding us of all the great things How I Met Your Mother has to offer.

André Ferreira F A melhor temporada até então. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/10/24 Full Review Eamonn B. S How I met your mother marked the beginning of contrived TV. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/12/23 Full Review Zack F how i met your mother loved the cast Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/11/23 Full Review mannn n episode 19 is my absolute favorite, it shows what the writers can do with their characters Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/21/23 Full Review black b Está temporada empieza relativamente relajado con el problema de Marshall y Lily ya que no pueden tener un hijo y eso hace que los demás se empiecen a plantear que hacen de su vida y a dónde quieren llegar. Descubrimos también al verdadero padre de Barney y hasta un poco de su pasado del personaje. Esta temporada la sentí regular, aun así es muy buena y tiene la esencia de sus antecesoras, ademas de que tiene una de las escenas mas tristes de toda la serie que es la revelación de que el padre de Marshall esta muerto o de la escena de Barney con su padre. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Tim B Will and Have rehinge again! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/09/22 Full Review Read all reviews
