A father tells his teenagers the story of how he met their mother. However, Ted is not known for brevity, and this saga covers his entire love life from college to marriage. The sitcom "How I Met Your Mother" shows us a decade in the lives of five friends. Ted is an eternal romantic in search of The One, Barney tries to bed all the women in the world, Marshall is Ted's roommate, who has been in a relationship with Lily since college, and the fifth member of the gang is Robin, Ted's failed romance that turned into friendship.
The series is very similar to the cult "Friends" in almost all aspects, so much so that it could technically be characterized as plagiarism. But they are essentially very different. "How I Met Your Mother" has a different atmosphere, a different sense of humor, and more lifelike characters that are easier to identify with. Some moments are pure pathos, some quite philosophical, and many brought tears to my eyes from laughter. The first few seasons are a masterpiece of a sitcom, while later the series has its ups and downs, but at no point has it fallen so low that I even think about giving up. Only the grand finale in the last two episodes disappointed me a bit, because here the series completely changed its tone and went into waters that have nothing to do with the previous nine seasons, but they redeemed with a couple of nice plot twists.
All in all, for those who haven't seen it, I highly recommend it. I enjoyed it more than "Friends".
8,5/10.
