That was my exact thought. I think she is dead. I don't recall future Ted ever saying anything to his kids like "don't tell your mother this" or anything like that.
I loved the build up of last night's episode. Made me want to know more. Will Ted go to Chicago? If so, how long? He still has to MEET this mystery girl. Though I love how she had the boots/base guitar/yellow umbrella. They've been building those up too long for her not to be the 1. Will Barney/Robin ever find out the reason Ted wants to move to Chicago? Will Marshall take the judgeship?
Pretty cool to think about a show that makes you wait 8 years to find out who the Title talks about. What other show besides maybe Lost has made us wait nearly a decade to find such a big question?
I also like how the show has always been about the 5 main characters and never has lost any or had to add any.

I do like the show but it heavily recycles jokes. Im ready for it to be done. I hate that there is another season coming. They should have ended it this year.
Don't forget Ted thinks he's leaving for Chicago! Lot's of loose ends to tie up in the final season!
That question was answered last night when Marshall told his brother after hanging up with Lily that it was news he had to say in person, and then Marshall's brother referred to him as "your honor"
But as Barney says, sometimes ya just gotta throw a 5 a bone. They go at it hard and hey, sometimes ya just wanna lay there.
Agreed though I'm fine with one more season. The show was really easy to be funny when Barney was single and hated marriage. Now they are having heavier plotlines which are harder to be funny from. Don't get me wrong, this show pioneered a lot of good humor ideas. Slap bets, the blitz ect ect.
Thought about that too...but none of them are ever sad and you would think they would be if their mom died. My wife and I talked about the opposite, what if Ted is dead and the kids are watching a video from him. But again, no real emotion so its likely we/people are reading way too much into it. But its fun to speculate!
Screw this show. I'm pizzed Rules of Engagement is done after this year. Funniest show on TV by far.
Well we know that Ted doesn't sell the house so I doubt he goes to Chicago. I also really doubt that they go to Rome as well.
I noticed that as well. I'm glad they introduced her now...gives the audience time to get to know her next season.
Interesting article on the episode last night.

Two tidbits I got out of it
1. She plays bass, most likely on her way to play bass at Barney and Robin's wedding?
2. How long til Ted runs into her? I like how the audience gets to "meet" her before Ted.
Also, please don't post in this thread simply to say it sucks or you hate it. At least explain why.

She's in the band at the wedding. And we know they are talking at the train station in Farhampton at some point, as that was shown earlier this season.
Ridiculous. Rules of Engagement is NOT funny. Neither is BBT. Same old recycled comedy. HIMYM used to be funny and now it's not. Even Always Sunny isn't as funny anymore. The funniest show on tv is Workaholics and I can't think of one that comes close...maybe The League.
I enjoy HIMYM, but maybe its because i just got into it and because of how i watched it. Marathoned the whole series this winter after only ever seeing a couple episodes. Some parts get annoying (constantly rehashing ted\robin, the way they absolutely ruined the whole victoria thing) but other than that i enjoy the show and find it funny, and the amount of callbacks can be really good.
Ya, they should have never brought Victoria back, totally ruined that. Was a good story the first time around, i used to want her to be the mother in the end, but not anymore.
