How I Met Your Mother: SPOILERS

      So like most people I watched How I Met Your Mother off and on for years. It was a funny show with its pecks and valleys but overall a pretty good sitcom. MY beef is with the ended it Monday night. So after like ten years of showing you all the different women that the main character Ted dated, this season half way thought they show you the "mother" which should have been the first alarm that it was going to be a special ending. Why not save the mother until the last show?
     I feel like the ending was a little bit of " a jumping the shark" which is a television term for when a show has been on television too long and is no longer any good. It comes from  Happy Days when the Fonz jumps a shark on water skis.

So the women that this show is based on is in like half of the last season and then on Monday night they KILL HER OFF!! And Ted ends up with Robin. It's not such a terrible idea but it was the lazy way out. The last season Robin is marrying Barry but in the last episode the do this time lap thing where they all get older and Barry and Robin do work out and she gets back with Ted after the mother dies. I just feel like it is such a lazy ending. And that's not how real life works, you (most of the time) don't end up with an ex-girlfriend who is also your friend's ex-wife. One word to sum up the ending.... L-A-Z-Y
