‘HIMYF’ Is Bringing Back All My Worst Memories From The ‘HIMYM’ Finale
What I took the greatest issue with wasn’t necessarily the implied ending of Ted and Robin getting back together, or even Tracy’s death. My problem was how thefinale upheld motherhood, parenthood, and birth-giving as essentially sacrosanct—the most important, life-changing experiences that could possibly happen to someone.
You’ll recall that the whole reason Ted and Robin split was their different stances on having kids, which is as fair a reason to break up as any. But over the course of the finale, we watch as Robin seems wistful and regretful about not having children or settling down, and instead choosing her career, as if these decisions are necessarily a binary for women.
’s showrunners and cast member Chris Lowell have said, the new show is written “within the same world without feeling trapped by it,” meaning there will probably be significant differences. “I’m not being tasked with the pressure of being the new whatever, like trying to be the Barney or the Robin or the Ted… as a result, you get plenty of room for us to become our own characters, for our show to become our own show,” Lowell has said.HIMYF
, I hope, will also adopt a more modern perspective on pregnancy, parenting and children rather than treat these as the most important possible outcomes in an adult’s life, and particularly an adult woman’s life. There’s nothing inherently wrong with Robin being unhappy or regretting her career and family planning decisions, nor with Barney choosing to change after having a daughter, or Ted’s obsessive yearning for a picture-perfect family of four.
