TV show description:
A sitcom that’s best described as “a love story in reverse.”

The series begins in the year 2030, with Ted Mosby (voiced by Bob Saget) telling his teenage children the story of how he met and fell in love with their mother.

The story he relates begins in 2005 with 27-year-old architect Ted (Josh Radnor) sharing an apartment with best friend and law student Marshall Eriksen (Jason Segel) and kindergarten teacher Lily Aldrin (Alyson Hannigan). After a long courtship, Marshall proposes to Lily and Ted starts to focus on finding his own soul mate – much to the disgust of his successful and womanizing friend Barney Stinson (Neil Patrick Harris).

Soon afterward, Ted meets TV reporter Robin Scherbatsky (Cobie Smulders) and immediately falls in love with her. Though Ted and Robin date, it’s made clear from the pilot episode that she isn’t his eventual bride.

branimir you clearly have no sense of humor at all, this show is hilarious.

besides being damned funny, it has a LOT of heart – there’s real storyline to it and you get involved with the characters. screw you.

Can’t wait to find out the identity of “Mrs. Ted’, but then the show would be over :( so, since i love the show, I hope that i don’t find out for many years…..
