Ok, that Ted thing is blowing my mind right now. It's making me question so many things! The entire dynamic of Barney and Ted's relationship has changed for me. And I'm thinking WAY too far into this.
I can see where the author of the write up is coming from, but someone posted something really interesting on a commentary I read yesterday:
"It wasn't why they didn't belong together, it was why they didn't belong together at the time. Ted always needed to have kids, and Robin always needed to have a career. Neither one of them would have been happy if either one of them settled. Ted got his kids, and Robin got the career she always wanted. Neither one had any "what ifs" going into the relationship."
I'm really torn about how I feel about this. Either way, I'm saddened by the fact that there was significant character development that seems to have been thrown out the window. I understand that they filmed the part with the kids earlier, but I wish they had filmed multiple endings. They spent so much time convincing us all that Ted and Robin weren't meant to be together and then stuck them together anyway.
Thrillho:
It reminds me of the last episode of Friends. Just outright laziness disregarding years of story progression.
Blue Kitty:
I just watched Defiance, mostly out of boredom, and it's pretty ok. A pretty short season but I enjoy the sci-fi elements
Lupercal:
Friends was very...tie this up with a nice bow kind of thing. Although I felt like 4 of those guys got what they wanted ('finally'), but Phebe and Joey are left just being themselves, which is way more normal than...pretty much everything else that happened. At least Fraiser ended somewhat openly.
Just started watching Star Trek again, started with Voyager. I then realised I should have at least started with Next Gen, worked through DS9 then gone on to Voyager but...I'm too invested in it now. It's a bloody good show.
Edit: 1000th post, most 90s post. Cool.
