Those 18 minutes will probs just be nice call-backs, probs nothing substantial that would change the story.

I definitely think the finale was flawed in many ways. I obviously disagree with how the story went, but that's more of an opinion. But it's definitely a near-fact that the format they made for the final 2 episodes was extremely stupid.

Like I said before, if they had the wedding be the season premiere, and then had the rest of the season be the events shown in the finale, that would have been perfect.I would have been able to tolerate the ending if that were the case.

But yeah, Barney definitely had a good book-end, my problem is how it happened. It wasn't his choice, and it was literary thrust upon him. Also, felt a bit forced, I mean, how would someone like Barney knock someone up accidentally. But I still am behind the fact that they made it clear before that Barney would be a terrible father. I woulda liked to see Barney's parenting methods and see if he could be competent, but not enough time. Another thing wrong with this finale.

And I wouldn't say the Barney we saw was depressed. Which is another gripe I have, I wish we could have seen more of a fallout from these major heartbreaking events (same with the death). They sorta just happened, and then got waved off.

Way too much wrong with this finale.
