How I Met Your Mother. I swear to god that show was huge in the late aughts and really reignited NPH’s career. Flash forward to today and the only time anybody ever even mentions it, is about how a bad ending can ruin a whole series and even there it comes in second to Game of Thrones.
I loved HIMYM when it was airing. I feel like people gloss over just how bad the entire last season was. After watching that show from day one I quit halfway through the last season, with the intention of just binging it once it was done. Then I heard about the ending. It was such a guy punch that I will never rewatch it, not even the early seasons. I'm sure that is why it doesn't have the staying power of shows like the Office and Parks and Rec that you can watch over and over.
My friend and his wife got into the reruns this year after having never watched it. I warned them to just stop 3 or 4 seasons in that they've enjoyed it at its peak and there's nothing more to see there. They didn't listen. Now they regret it and went from loving it to hating it
