How I Met your Mother....the next Friends?

[agotta]

Because in one episode he says to the kids "And that's how I met your AUNT ROBIN." At first I took it literally and thought he'd be marrying RObin's sister, but maybe they just call her aunt because she and Ted are good friends.

Well after the episode the other night we thought maybe Robin and Barney end up together, hence the Aunt Robin. Might not be literally blood related.

I also thought that Barney and Robin end up together. I think Monday's episode was probably the best one so far.

I'm not too keen on the comparison to Friends, though, because I loathed that show...this one is not great but at least watchable.

Just watched last night's episode. It was very funny. I think the best one yet. Although I missed a few at the beginning.

I assume "Aunt Robin" to mean just close friends. We have close family friends that we call aunt/uncle. He also referred to the Alyson Hannigan character as "aunt" one time also.

Well after the episode the other night we thought maybe Robin and Barney end up together, hence the Aunt Robin. Might not be literally blood related.

Are Ted and Barney brothers?

Are Ted and Barney brothers?

No, they are friends.

This has become one of my fave shows. I laugh every episode and I absolutely adore Barney. He has some of the best lines. I started to even use them as work.....
Legendary!
Suit up!
Lemon law....its gonna be a thing!

I disagree.

How ' you doing? How ' you doing?

given the complaints about Friends over the years I expected things to get more Brady Bunch, not further away.

Why would you think that? The complaints never hurt Friends. If anything, they helped.
