How I Met Your Mother Series Finale Airdate

Series co-creators Carter Bays and Craig Thomas spoke to TV Line on Jan. 2 about what will happen when Ted's (Josh Radnor) former love, Robin (Cobie Smulders), actually meets his future wife, 'The Mother' (Cristin Millioti).

"It happens late in the season, and there's definite significance," Thomas said.

Bays added that the titular character will potentially give Robin some advice about her upcoming nuptials. He said, "It's going to be a bruising weekend for everybody. A lot goes down."

The show has been teasing that Barney and Robin's wedding weekend was life-changing for everyone since the season's first episode. There's a chance that Robin will question how much she wants to marry Barney and receives life-changing advice from 'The Mother' reaffirming how much she wants to marry him.

If this is the case, Robin herself could introduce Ted to his future wife.

Previous reports stated that The Mother's name will be revealed soon. However, it's still unclear when both Robin and Ted will meet the character, which Bays and Thomas have yet to disclose despite almost being done with writing all of the episodes.
