Ted ever said his friends said what happens when he's never around. He also said he's unsure of what they said sometimes.

This was cleared in the later seasons that these 5 discussed each and every detail of their lives...

Denis Rozic it’s because they told him

They made a joke of this once at least when robin was telling barney that Ted "ruined her for other men" then hes like "of course I wasnt here for this conversation so I couldn't really be too sure"

They mention in the show, they tell eachother everything.

wasn´t this the only time he was wrong about something? even scenes where he wasn´t even present?

No, it happens throughout the show. Here are some examples, I hope you don't mind; 1. He couldn't remember his online date's name, so she's called "Blah Blah" throughout her episode. 2. He was too tired at the time to remember how the goat attack went, so we are shown an over the top fight with the goat. 3. He wasn't at the apartment when Marshal and Lilly both jumped out of the window unharmed, but has to go with that, as it's what they told him. 4. The same thing happens when Robin jumps over a traffic jam with a child's bike (Stella's daughter Lucy's) - Ted admits he wasn't there, but Robin says she did this. 5. He started the goat story prematurely, because he confused his 30th birthday with his 31st. I realise a lot of these are less "Ted remembered it wrong" and more "Ted wasn't there, and most likely doesn't believe what he was told, but it's all he has, so it's in the story", but they did play with the fact that one of the characters was the narrator a fair amount.

@@MJN_SEIFER also honeys name

Yep.

@@MJN_SEIFER You can call me Blah

I know right the guys trying to remember things and re tell it like I can barely remember things 2 days ago

We get it a fair amount, there's also a similar joke where Ted isn't sure if the story is correct, because he wasn't there, and is going by what the other characters told him (these scenes are purposely unrealistic) - it would be nice if it was used more, but it's also good they didn't over do it.

For real, if any show can take advantage of a gag like that it's this one.

I choose the to believe most of the finale was unreliable narrator

They did enough of it. There’s also microscopic amounts of it sprinkled through most of the episodes if you look closely.

Wasted far too many years on the story. They could have told it in 52 episodes, 2 calender years, and been done.

Amen. The man was a legend with an amazing voice.

Yes, always loved his voice, from his earliest work in the early 1980s to today.

I just learned today that he narrated the show. I had no clue. I thought it was a guy who plays Ted

​@magilla2282 wow me too wtf 😂😂😂

Hes sensitive like Michael Jackson. I totally get it!

@@ericcarrington1791 yeah honestly Ive been sensitive like that too, i just didn't show it

@@ericcarrington1791 Michael jackson probably isnt the best person to bring up right now

yeah barney makes loves with women not child

@@ericcarrington1791 no he hasn't! God! How can you say that?!!

I don't like Barney and Robins split But I do like the mother dying. Why else would he feel the need to tell the story

@@omalleycaboose5937 yeah same that divorce didn't even need to happen Ted could've lived as a single dad and it still would've been like "life doesn't go the way you imagine it" crap everybody keeps making as an excuse for the bad ending

@@raspberrycrowns9494 Its more the mother being dead explains to me why he is telling the story. The only time people tell me long stories like that its about my dad who died before I was born so... I sorta just assumed the mother was dead early on in the show. So it actually was what I expected. But the idea of the show, the theme of the story, whether realistic or not, Has been around how Ted has "the one" he needs to find. The mother is "The One" or she should have been, not Robin.

@@omalleycaboose5937 dude I agree

Ted has schizophrenia.

Well it's a TV show, so none of it and all of it

@@seangannon6005 wow, that's meta

Barney probably wasn't as much as a player as Ted made him out to be. Ted just told the story that way so it would seem like he deserved to end up with Robin more

Genevieve Ooi that actually makes a lot of sense

The way I always saw it whenever Future Ted (or Present Ted I guess) is speaking that's what is being told to the kids and the actual episode is just the details being filled in for the audience.

@Black Ninja she was

I didn’t even realise it wasn’t josh radnor until tonight 😭

They must have refilmed this scene with Tracy or edited it cuz I slowed it down and can’t see her at all when Ted walks in even though she’s supposed to walk right by him.

@@session2.056 they probably hadn't thought of the whole thing with Tracy being there when they first filmed this episode. Good thing is, though, they can always explain such inconsistencies with the irreliable narrator excuse.

Brooklyn 99

Ive already seen the office obviously and i also love the good place... As for Brooklyn 99 i hate it... Couldnt even finish the first episode it was unbearable for me

Community, although it starts pretty boring, several episodes are pure gold

Parks and Rec, that's gold. And has kind of a himym vibe on it. It's about friendship, and ridiculous things.

JP KARAS FRIENDS

Eliana Ream actually it’s stupid octopus head... but yeah, Lily can be sassy at times but not this one for sure. Maybe because she was pregnant in this..

@@baongocnguyen9955 or maybe. MAYBE Ted made it up

Granted I would have the same reaction if it was me and my stuffed animal

Why does it make more sense? It's ridiculous to count an ice cream as "we". You saved me and my baby is a lot more heartwarming and touching for a pregnant woman

@@nadimabbas4093 no. Ice cream > screaming time and money consuming brats that sound like somebody having a stroke. Anytime.

Haha yeah Creams before screams

@@fgdbbddhhdhdj1591 that sounds dirty

Huh never actually thought of that 🤨😄 Now u got me thinking.... what did they do? 🤔😌

Lily said no and Barney was cool with it

It is not that unique. Coupling did that as well. In fact how I met your mother is kind of an American coupling.

Bob’s voice was so warm, rich, and expressive.

Unpredictability* lmao

Thats the thing about the group, they all have a tendency to tell unnecessarily long and detailed stories about their lives with B plots they weren't there for.

Makes for a good excuse for late assignments. ;)

It really wouldn't be nine years. Even assuming *everything* in the show is part of the story (seems doubtful) we're talking 9 seasons × 24 episodes in a season × about 22 minutes per episode. That adds up to about 80 hours. So he could cover it in the course of a few days.

@@harringt100 I didn't say the story took nine years to tell.

@@harringt100 80 hours is 2 40 hour work weeks. 8 hours a day for 5 days a week. No one is going to tell a story for 8 hours a day to their kids. Especially since the kids were school age. Even assuming it was Summer Vacation. No way teenagers would sit there for 8 straight hours each day. Even so, if you notice, the kids don't change outfits. So it's all done in 1 day. 1 eternal day inside some magic time bubble where time passes both incredibly slowly and incredibly fast at the same time, so that he's able to talk at a normal speed yet get 80 hours of the past 9 years of his life into 1 night.

he did told his wife about everything .. even her wife remembers his stories .. season 9 will show u

Frenchify Technically the mother lived due to the official alternate ending

ouch

"The odyssey of recollection."

It's Dad Lore: The Show. You always talk up the exploits of all the cool stuff you did you to your kids.

None of the new shows, not even the Office is so unique in that regard.

@@ronmathewjoeYou're not unique either, it doesn't prevent your parents from loving you (I hope).

@@Dante02d12 Okay that was way out of the blue 😂😂

He didn’t misuse it tho, he was literally in the wrong year

It was!! Tracy is there in this episode. Ted does bring it up later.

shady c network me too I have the complete series on DVD

Yaa

Yeah in the last scene, she passes between Barney and Lily before Ted got there

But, well, an unreliable narrator will probably skip the fact that someone very important passed him

Thanh Hà Lê yes he said it’s the end for that story which means there was another story about how the mother was actually there when it happened

davincent98 no it was Tracy’s hot friend(the redhead also her original roommate) that was in the 200th episode or how your mother met me

They sound so similar

lol me my mom and brother were watching the last episode The other day, and when it was sclose to the end I look to my brother and say: "Hey u notice how it's Ted's voice now instead of what's his name🤨? Bob Saget" 😄

The ending was recorded at the start by Josh

It's my favorite sitcom - I've even got a sitcom planned that's inspired by it and will use the same format (the "storyteller" one), but it will be my own storylines (I'm going to check with the creators that I can do this.)

@@MJN_SEIFER mine too,bro! Mine too! And it was to legend wait for it Dary ! Legendary!

It's not underrated. It was a huge success and has fans all over the world.

No, they were looking at ted, not the audience

@@yazanhussam8182 *3rd* Wall Break?

Keep pressinf that time stamp every second. Ted drops a sick chord transition

邱死神 the kid is David henrie

That kid is David Henrie.

Barney reminds me of Neil Patrick Harris

Yeah, I didn't realise it was a different person at first either.

*oh damn*

Or he is a pretty shitty guy

Well maybe Ted should have stopped focusing on telling his kids random stories and just focus on telling his kids how he met their mother

they filmed their whole part way early in season 1. they signed a contract not to reveal the ending.

Neither does the narrator 😂
