The TV Addict 

I want to meet the mother!! Not only that, I’d like to see how Ted interacts with her after they meet.

ps-I like how the imagination link goes to Ashley Williams’ IMDB. I would love to see her in HIMYM again.

I think I’d feel a bit cheated if we never got to see the mother after all this build-up. However, I hope it’s not Alicia Silverstone. I’m happy to have her on the show as a girlfriend, but I just can’t see her as the future Mrs. Ted Mosby.

I want to meet the mother.

And what hype? I have no expectation that Ted’s wife will be anything or anyone special (other than to him).

John….you took the words out of my mouth,or fingers i guess.

i love Robin

I want to meet the mother. I want her to be the slutty pumpkin. Alicia would be fine, but not quite what I’d imagine.

“Considering how great Ted and Robin were together, I think the mother has to be pretty special. Lord knows the HIMYM creators don’t want people thinking, “Ted broke up with Robin for this….””

Yeah, but they weren’t really great together. They clearly wrote their storyline as one with many faults that they just can’t get over.

@sJ… that was a joke..and even Ted says she is not the mother in the episode.
…now onward.
And I know Ausiello sometimes gets the scoop…but I think his conclusions are wrong. Victoria stuck around for multiple episodes and she is not the mom. I do agree with Ausiello that the show can go on if the mother is introduced, but it kind of takes away some of the mystery of it all…kind of like Barney’s job or the Janitor’s name in Scrubs….

I suppose I should wait for the first episode with her to air before being for certain… Is she (Alicia) comes in as Dr. Stella (possibility since Ted said there was more to that story)… we should look for the yellow umbrella and her name to be Tracy… but on a wild shot, I would say that unless the show gets canceled and they need quick resolution to prevent rioting and looting in the streets…she is not the momma.
Just my thoughts though.

In the episode “No Tomorrow,” Ted says his mother was in the nightclub where he was being an ass just to see what happens.

During the later part of the episode, he bumps into a woman and apologizes. The occurance has no point in the plot whatsoever, and I doubt the writers would write something in that wasn’t a joke or wasn’t connected to anything. So, I think that so far the woman he bumps into is the future Mrs. Ted Mosby.
