HIMYM Creators Discuss How I Met Your Dad Spinoff

IGN: It’s nearly the end of the road for How I Met Your Mother, which will end its nine-year run with a one-hour series finale on March 31st. On a recent visit to the set of the show, following a press discussion with the full cast, I was among a group who sat down with the show’s creators, Craig Thomas and Carter Bays, in one of the booths at MacLaren’s. With just six weeks left of production on the series, the duo spoke about reaching the end and writing the finale. Thomas and Bays also gave an update on the current status of How I Met Your Dad, the potential spinoff series, which won’t involve any pre-existing characters, and how they're approaching that.

" which won’t involve any pre-existing characters"

Except the mother.....RIGHT

Because this is one of the most SIMPLE spin offs you could do....

It should revolve round the Mother meeting Ted, filling in the gaos from the series, like why the Mother was in Teds architect class or what she was doing when Ted was in her flat seeing her room mate.

COME ON GUYS...it better not be new characters. I think the Mother is capable of being a main character

But then... we've already seen how they meet after watching the finale of this series. So, um, hmmm. It would be like "ok we know who she is going to be, and how they meet, but here is the stuff that happened before that."

If they are going to make it, make everything new, even her. Either way I can see if not doing to well. "Joey" anybody?

This will flop.

People are watching this just to get to the end of it. The show has run it's course.

What I find confusing is how do shows like this actually make it over 1 season yet everyone of Matthew Perry's tv series get cancelled after 1 season. Studio 60, Mr. Sunshine, Go On, like wth does somebody have against Matthew perry some of those shows were way better than more than half the crap out right now especially Go On. Like I don't get it seems like anything on tv that's actually decent gets cancelled, they say ratings but really I think there's something else going on (politics).

My examples of shows cancelled that I think shouldn't have been cancelled mr sunshine, Go On, legend of the seeker, breakout kings, believe it or not Joey( still funny enough to be on tv ), there's prob more but that's all I can think of right now.
