HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER Episode 200: Carter Bays, Craig Thomas, and Cristin Milioti Preview ‘How Your Mother Met Me’

HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER is just a few months away from its series finale, but there is a very important milestone to celebrate in the meantime — the 200th episode, which airs Monday, January 27th. And, fittingly, to commemorate such a big occasion, the show is doing something a bit different: it’s telling the story of Ted and the Mother from the mother’s perspective!

“We didn’t plan the season going ‘200 has to be a big episode,'” HIMYM co-creator Carter Bays told reporters as the show was filming “How Your Mother Met Me.” “It just kind of landed nicely that this 200th episode is really special. I think it’s one of the best we’ve ever done. It’s also, really, unlike any other episode we’ve ever done. When you see it, I think it’s an unlikely choice for a 200th episode. The 100th episode was very much a celebration of this cast with the big musical number. This one is about the story, and about the tale we’ve been telling.”

HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER: The Cast and Creators Tease the All-Rhyme Episode

After nine seasons on the air, HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER is pulling a stunt with tonight’s episode that it has never tried before: the entire thing will be in rhyme.

“[It’s] super fun, and I just thought it was such an imaginative episode,” Josh Radnor (Ted) told reporters on set last week. “It’s a great episode. Super weird. Never been done on television.”

And while it may seem like it would be a nightmare to try and make the logistics of the episode work out, HIMYM co-creator Carter Bays noted it was “so much easier [to write] than it seemed. To the point that what was difficult was writing the next episode and not being able to rhyme.”

HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER: Carter Bays and Craig Thomas on Using a Lot of Flashforwards in Season 9, the Mother’s Premiere Meeting, and More

The Mother is about to become a major part of HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER — but while we know for sure she’ll be meeting up with Ted’s friends before she meets her future husband, how much of her life we’ll see in the final season is a bit of a question mark.

To try and get a little bit of a hint of what’s to come, HIMYM co-creators Carter Bays and Craig Thomas talked with reporters at Comic-Con about getting more flashforwards than ever in season 9, how much of the mother’s life we’ll see pre-her meeting Ted, and more…

HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER: Carter Bays and Craig Thomas on Season 9’s Format, Getting to Tell Unexpected Stories, and More

When HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER co-creators Carter Bays and Craig Thomas went into last season, they wrote the first part of it thinking it would be the final year. But then, things changed and the cast signed on for a ninth (and final) season…altering a bit of the storytelling the men would be able to tell before their show signed off for good.

At Comic-Con over the weekend, Bays and Thomas shared what the extra season has afforded them, their mindset going into the show’s last year, getting to do their first Con with HIMYM, and more…
