How I Met Your Mother is so interesting to me because the best parts about it stem from the fact that it's characters are all horrible people. Yet the writer's clearly don't realise this very obvious fact about their own show.

Also, it wholly erased it's own place in the culture by having an absolutely trash final season.

It's also deeply, libidinally, transphobic. Like, holy shit it's so bad

Any show made pre-2008 is going to have a different vibe culturally.

Still a good show, even if it's not for your tender palate.

The best parts about the show is that people with clearly different values and personalities can still be friends. But i guess it hits differently for echo chambers.

Indeed.

And it makes fun of normal-ass white people way more than it makes fun of queer people, but some people honestly believe that they deserve to be free from all offense unironically. Which is weird.

You say words then don't back up your words with facts.

It's been a while since I've watched the show, why are Robin and Marshall horrible?
