How I Met Your Mother is an American sitcom that aired on CBS from 2005 to 2014. The show follows the story of Ted Mosby (Josh Radnor), a young architect living in New York City who decides to narrate to his children the events that led up to him meeting their mother.

The show also features Ted's group of friends, including his best friend Marshall Eriksen (Jason Segel) and Marshall's wife Lily Aldrin (Alyson Hannigan), Ted's former girlfriend Robin Scherbatsky (Cobie Smulders), and the womanizer Barney Stinson (Neil Patrick Harris).

Throughout the series, Ted goes through different relationships while constantly searching for the love of his life. Marshall and Lily's relationship is also a major focus of the show, and viewers witness their ups and downs as they navigate married life together. Robin, who begins as Ted's love interest, goes through her own personal and professional struggles, eventually finding a kind of happiness she never expected.

Barney remains a constant source of humor and outrageous behavior, often using his catchphrase "Legendary!" to describe himself and his antics. He becomes a fan favorite character and develops a particularly close bond with Marshall, as they frequently engage in schemes and pranks together.

The show is known for its unique storytelling techniques, such as its use of flashbacks and flash-forwards, as well as its non-linear plotline. The show also features several recurring jokes and motifs, including Marshall's love of sandwiches and Barney's ever-growing collection of suits.

As the series progresses, viewers are introduced to a variety of new characters, including Ted's various girlfriends and romantic interests. Cristin Milioti joins the cast in later seasons as the titular mother, whose identity is a mystery until the very end of the show.

The show tackles topics such as growing up, career aspirations, and the ups and downs of relationships. It is a feel-good show that is sure to make viewers laugh and cry in equal measure.
