HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER: Marshall Says Goodbye To His Dad

I’ve always said that one of HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER’s greatest strengths is that someone in the gang is usually going through something that most people in their late 20s/early 30s can closely relate to.

Tonight’s episode, “Last Words,” in which Marshall must come to terms with his father’s passing and get through the funeral, is just another example of this.

Maybe you’ve lost a parent. Perhaps you have a friend who has lost a parent and you’ve struggled, trying to figure out how to comfort them.

In “Last Words,” Lily, Robin, Ted and Barney are the comic relief, coming up with strange a possibly inappropriate ways to support Marshall on a very difficult day.

Still, as expected, there is quite a bit of raw emotion too and you might find yourself crying during HIMYM this evening.

HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER “Last Words” airs Monday, January 17 at 8PM on CBS.
