How I Met Your Mother Season 8 Finale, Cristin Milioti: There She Is, the Big Reveal, Finally! Have You Met Her Yet?
How I Met Your Mother Season 8 finale treated fans to a big reveal: The titular role has finally been officially cast and she's seen buying a ticket to -- where else? Farhampton. Who is that, you may have asked. She's Cristin Milioti. The series closes its eighth year with a bang, returning next season with Barney's and Robin's wedding.
Spoiler Alert: This feature contains minor spoilers for those who have not seen How I Met Your Mother Season 8 Finale (Part 2). Read at your own risk.
Remember when Ted moved Heaven and Earth to be able to invite Robin to a friend's wedding back in Season 2? Now remember how he just instantly fell for Victoria just a day later? Well now Ted is at it again, grieving over Robin, considering moving. You can tell what happens next, can't you?
Here's one thing to keep in mind: Ted said in the hilarious "Three Days Rule" episode some seasons ago that when he met his kids' mother, he did not wait long to call her. Now that the 'mother' is buying a ticket to Farhampton, you know that call is going to happen so soon. Except, How I Met Your Mother Season 9 will not kick off until September.
So who is playing the mother role to Ted Mosby's kids? Her name is Cristin Milioti. Apparently, the mother is neither the popular Audrey, or the girl Ted randomly bumped into on a St Patty's Day party. She's never appeared on the show, which makes for a pretty good call among the HIMYM showrunners.
Milioti is part of the stage production of Once. She is also known as Johnny Sack's daughter Catherine on The Sopranos. She rose to internet fame about two years ago after appearing in the 30 Rock episode, "TGS Hates Girls."
Are you satisfied with the way things went in the show? In a couple of months, HIMYM returns for the ninth and final season of the hit CBS sitcom.
