Ah. I'd suspected the mom was dead, and certainly they were always pushing the Ted/Robin. I quit watching around the time Barney/Robin kicked off. I could never buy that.
Yeah, and if the show had ended right about when you stopped watching, this ending would have worked better. But they've spent years with how Robin and Ted wouldn't work and everybody let go and moved on, and then kind of just went 'psych! we take it all back.' Ted had (apparently) 6 years to grieve and mourn but we got about 15 second of summation.
Or they should have stepped back and looked at the show they'd actually written, all 9 seasons, and ended that show, not the one they originally planned on ending.
