HIMYM's controversial ending, 10 years later.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Ten years ago, How I Met Your Mother came to an end with season 9, and Ted's story to his children about how he met his wife, Tracy , finally wrapped up. The hit sitcom famously had a controversial ending that rocked audiences worldwide, with many voicing their disappointment of how its characters' storylines were finished.
In season 1, neither of them would have been able to do such a thing, which highlighted the strong character development both Robin and Barney went through during the show. In fact, if the pair hadn't divorced, Barney wouldn't have had his daughter and learned to reflect on his past behavior toward women. While it could be argued that the show wasted season 9 by doing this, it also proved that not every happy ending looked the same.
It felt that Ted only chased after Robin again in the finale because he'd had his kids, and so that conflict was no longer relevant. However, there were plenty of other reasons why the pair didn't work together other than this. Robin was dedicated to her career and preferred to go with the flow, but Ted's approach to life was stricter, and he was very set in his ways.
The scenes with Ted's kids were filmed during season 2, as production knew that Fonseca and Henrie would be fully grown adults by the time the show came to an end. Although it was logical that Tracy wouldn't appear during these moments, especially as Milioti wasn't cast until season 8, the fact she never chimed in with Ted's story off-screen was also a sign that she wasn't present in 2030.

Although there were several jokes about the two being attracted to each other, their relationship was strictly platonic.
