Featured review
Yet another poorly written episode with a forced cliffhanger for a series finale
I used to love this show, during all the pandemic been watching loads of old sitcoms in full to see which age we'll or if I still like them, you have clever comedies like parks and rec, top written ones like scrubs, ones that have aged poorly like will and Grace, then this, which I'd used to rate at 7 or 8 out of 10 but now I'd struggle to go higher than 3.
The writing on this show is abysmal, people act like the flashback stuff makes it clever, but no, scrubs did it superbly, this show just has forced narratives and repetitive predictable scenarios. They only work if they feel natural and well written but these rarely do.
The problem is a mix of writer and cast, but the main cast issues is Ted and robin, they're mid twenties acting like kids, their dialogues are so stupid, they both know and discuss they're wrong together, it's pointed out to them, they argue a lot and then just cus it's series finale they split, but it's clever because the other two are married, no, no it isn't. These writers suck, T and R have zero chemistry, poor acting, delivery of lines, robin less so and I know she had personal stuff but ted is easily the worst lead, actor ever. He is a child who's emotionally stunted, tries to seem profound when being an idiot, a romantic when clearly just desperate. Honestly step back and listen to a grown man act like ted in the real world, he's smug, arrogant, childish, illogical, desperate and just a selfish person. Jokes often miss, canned laughter for ted is so muted and his awful career since kinda shows he is poor. I could list 100=lines in series 1/2 that are so beyond bad.
Marshall and Lilly are better, decent chemistry, feel we're told they're perfect more than shown it outside extremely cheap childish shows of romance, the kisses feel off, the wedding was kinda stupid, Marshall is a lawyer, to get tips like that you need a cap, it's just impossible that'd happen. Shaved yes, dyed no. They to me feel like best friends, their romance is weak just forced on you, but again Lilly is great, Marshall is decent think this is more poor writing
Barney is the ONLY thing that makes this show bearable, he is hilarious, good range in emotions and just great comic timing and relief.
Terrible array of extras, no characters so far have really added to it which is a shame, the driver is ok but the rest are shallow extras with no personality. Missed chance.
Overall as background tv without thinking about it too much it's ok, but listening and appreciating it as a script and actors, this show is abysmally written, childish,cheap and unfunny. Poorly cast and two cliffhangers in two series forced in unnaturally.
