    I agree - it does feel like they're going in that direction with this season - i wonder if they have decided to wrap after this season......???

    although I don't want Robin and Barney getting married - that seems too easy at this point.


    as to "who's the daddy" - we dont' know how much time passed since Robin slept with Barney, and it wouldn't make sense that she'd tell Barney instead of Lily, if Barney wasn't potentially be the dad.

    I don't like the spoiler for next week - it takes this show to a place it shouldn't go- I'd much rather a false positive.

    I guess there are a few ways they can go with the pregnancy -- either it turns out she's not pregnant, or she has a miscarriage, or it is all a catalyst for Barney to tell her how much he loves her and wants to be the dad whether it's his baby or not. I don't know where that leaves Kevin, though. He seems like a nice guy who wouldn't dump his gf for getting pregnant (or maybe Robin can figure out by the timing that it's not Kevin's baby). If they wanted to wrap up the show this season (obviously my choice at this point), they could use this as a reason for B & R to realize they love each other and belong together, since this seems to be where they're headed anyway. So there's the wedding, and there's The Mother at the wedding, and the show could either be wrapped at that point, or I suppose there could be another season of her and Ted in a relationship headed to their own wedding, but somehow I think they don't need to go there.

    I thought I read somewhere that they had cast Barney's wife - and it wasn't Robin. Am I going crazy? Does anyone else remember reading this?

    I read that they cast a new love interest for Barney, but it didn't say anything about her becoming his wife.

    as per zap 2 it .com

    Attention all devoted "How I Met Your Mother" fans: We finally know when we'll meet the darn mother already. According to showrunner Carter Bays, we will actually see the woman in question in May of 2012. We think.


    Bays tells TV Guide that we will "meet" her at Barney's wedding, but knowing this show, that's no guarantee of anything. "In May, we will follow Ted to the bride's dressing room and meet her," Carter says. "Some monumental things are ahead that will change Ted's life irrevocably and make it a different show going forward. We're going to get into why he's still single. He's going to start realizing some things and exploring some new territory."


    That's not the only mystery addressed in the Barney's wedding flash-forward -- we'll also meet his heretofore unseen bride.


    As for the other characters, Bays says Barney will finally get into a stable romantic relationship (we're assuming with Quinn, played by "Ugly Betty" vet Becki Newton), and Robin and Kevin's "relationship takes some big steps." Whether that's good or bad, we don't know for sure, especially considering Robin's big revelation.


    Marshall and Lily will have their son on May, while Chris Elliott will return for several episodes as Lily's father, Mickey.

    Just watching the previews which seem to be setting it up as Barney's child, but presumably not so, with all the above stuff about other people.

    watched a spoiler scene with Barney and Robin

    Robin says
    Click to see Spoiler:
    she and Kevin had not had sex yet so the baby has to be Barney's,but she also said that she was just late and had not seen a doctor yet.

    On the one hand, I am glad they did not have Robin miscarry, but on the other, I'm sad that she will not be able to have children. All in all, a downer "Christmas" episode.

    Yes, all the way through I was thinking, what?? These are Robin and Barney's kids?? And then the kids vanish and Robin clearly never adopts, etc., or even explores why she can't have kids (although if it were easily fixable I assume the doc would have offerred that as option right away). Barney does seem to want kids on some level, so I don't think he marries Robin.
    So yeah, a downer. Not to say you need to have kids to be happy, but as Robin said, it would have been nice to have it be a true choice.

    What a bummer episode! I hate when sit-coms decide they have to have a sad/serious episode. Ugh! I watch this to laugh, not get bummed out.
