About:

An American sitcom that ran on CBS for nine seasons, from September 19, 2005, to March 31, 2014, How I Met Your Mother tells the legendary tale of a group of friends navigating life, love, and adulthood in New York City. The story is framed as a long and elaborate anecdote, recounted by main character Ted Mosby in the year 2030, as he tells his children the story of how he eventually met their mother. This unique, non-linear storytelling style weaves through flashbacks and narrative twists, keeping viewers engaged with the mystery of the mother's identity.

The series centers on Ted and his best friends: the long-term, college-sweetheart couple Marshall and Lily; the promiscuous, suit-wearing playboy Barney; and the commitment-phobic Canadian news reporter Robin. Over its run, the show follows their close-knit friendship, careers, and romantic escapades, creating a mix of humor, heartbreak, and emotional moments. While Ted's journey to find "the one" is at its core, the show ultimately celebrates the enduring bonds of friendship that make the journey worthwhile.
