What’s to come on ‘How I Met Your Mother’ and what went away in Season 5! (Includes many Spoilers!)

“I hope no one will throw the word ‘sitcommy’ at us after Season 6.”

HIMYM Those are the words of Craig Thomas, executive producer and co-creator of “How I Met Your Mother.”

He and Carter Bays, his fellow executive producer and co-creator, gave a group interview to several TV writers and critics Wednesday evening at the Television Critics Association press tour. They talked about beginning the show’s overall endgame and what’s to come in Season 6 (and much of that information is at the end of this post).

And for almost an hour, Thomas and Bays talked about Season 5, which many critics, including myself, found uneven at best and, yes, broad and sitcommy at worst. Though they say that their decision to experiment and not give the season an overall arc produced some of what they consider “HIMYM’s” best episodes, such as “Girls Versus Suits” and “Doppelgangers,” they said they ultimately realized the season felt “rudderless.”

How I Met Your Mother: CBS Sitcom to End After Eight Seasons?

How I Met Your  MotherNot since Friends has there been a more tightly-knit group of sitcom characters than those on How I Met Your Mother. It’s hard to imagine what the show would be without Alyson Hannigan, Cobie Smulders, Jason Segel, Josh Radnor, or Neil Patrick Harris.

Well, we might find out in a few years. In a recent interview with GQ, Segel noted that he has three years left on his How I Met Your Mother contract. The actor/director/writer intends to leave the sitcom when that time comes.

Jason Segel thinks How I Met Your Mother could use more apocalypse

If Jason Segel sounds a bit restless in this interview, it’s understandable: He’s contractually obligated to stick around his CBS sitcom How I Met Your Mother through an eighth season even though he’s got Muppets movies to make and substantial supporting roles in films with Steve Carell, Jack Black, and Cameron Diaz on the agenda. And seriously, when is that guy gonna meet his kids’ mother already? So yeah, it’s hard to blame Segel for sounding as though he’s bowing out, even if his aspirations to be the next Peter Sellers seem a bit overreaching for a guy who’s been playing the same loveably blunt slacker-type for years now: Lees verder
