First things first: I hate how CBS handled HIMYM this season. In fact, the same can be said for how CBS has always treated the show, but this year was awful. For the last 3 months we had one new episode maybe every other week. This made it very difficult to follow. The show itself? Legendary.
I just wrote a blurb for 30 Rock's sixth season lamenting it, but HIMYM is still as strong as it ever was. We didn't get a whole lot closer to meeting the mother, but we did find out who Barney is getting married to. Marshal and Lily are still the greatest couple in TV history and now we get a baby in the next season! The Quinn storyline felt a little weak as we all expected the eventual reveal and as such didn't buy to much into it.
One last thing: The writers need to stop making new history. Too many flashbacks of situations that didn't happen on air (much like the "Trilogy" episode) in a show with such a strong library that you can mine what's already there instead of shoehorning these events in.
Just watched this last night. Good bye Quinn, you will not be missed. Waitforit: best middle name ever! So funny. So glad we know Robin and Barney finally hook up, tired of the Ted/Robin drama :)
