Happy to be here

Mostly I didn't enjoy this episode. Stunk to much of Myka/Pete shippage for my taste and the Claudia stuff was boring (and I have NEVER called Claudia boring before). If the show does end up pairing Myka and Pete I might revolt in a major way. Murder/Suicide Pact before pairing them up even for baby making purposes please. On a side note: It is good to know that I am not the only one who has to stifle laughter when I hear the word "Fracking". Claudia was always going to be caretaker. I think Myka was going to have Artie's job. I am not sure what they said about Pete (I think he is going to be a regent or something.) Warehouse 13: THe Next Generation. (or would that be Warehouse 14 ~ because we all know Warehouse 13 is gonna blow up)

It is a tough thing to find genuine sexual chemistry between two people and the sexual chemistry between Freddie Highmore and Vera Farminga is incredible especially since they are playing mother and son. The fight scene between them sizzled with sexual undertones. It was almost like Norman was breaking up with a lover and not having a fight with his mother. I loved ever scene with Norma. Everything Norma was just pure Norma if that makes any sense. From literally going to a drug hideout, knocking on the door, and getting in to being pleased that her son had an office all the way to the scene where she tried to make her son jelouse that she had a date with another man and got pissed when he didn't care then ended up back at the dates house after she initially left. "Norma. what are you doing?" THe guy said. My mind said "Cheating on my son." Oh and Dylan...yes you can kill Zane. And this is just the right show to do it. Or you can just go with the Hans Solo plan. I kinda liked that one. I kinda miss Blair Watson. My sick twisted heart would have loved to see a triangle between Norma. Norman, and Blair Watson. That would have been all kinds of twisted.

Can we see more of Ramon? I thought the gun buy scene was comedy gold. Then again I would watch the hell out of a sitcom with just Alison and family, and wasn't there a throw away line about Alison asking about Romon's mother?

Best gun sale ever! Only Alison would send an illegal fire arm with flowers and a card. OH and Alison Hendrix is in a musical. I don't think a more "Unintentional funny" line was ever said. It must get rather confusing for Tatiana Maslany when she has to fight herself like that. Rachel is going to be a problem. Not part of clone club then? When Dr. Leekie warned Delphine against "playing for the other team?" A thousand lesbians yelled. "Thats the whole point!"

Isn't taking DNA from a minor who isn't under actual arrest or under actual State custody much less putting it into a data base a little shady? Then again the entire damn town is a little shady so I give it a pass. Hey did Norman actually have sex with Miss Watson because my creepy little heart actually ships those two wacky kids. I would fit right in in that creepy little town, wouldn't I? Its the born vs bred juxtaposition; was Norman born bad or was he made that way? I think the show has been doing a fairly good job about showing that Norman was born with serious mental issues that could have been dealt with if his mother had dealt with them instead of running from them.

I like Mandy so I enjoyed her scenes. So far I have liked her better then both of Lip's other love interests. I think she is actually good for him and I really enjoyed her scenes this season. I was thinking back to Fiona's story arc and I know alot of people have been saying that her downward spiral came out of nowhere but it really didn't. I watched the pilot episode and there was a scene with her and Ian and Ian asked her if she ever got tired of thinking for everyone and her response was basically that she liked to feel wanted. Fiona has always had a deep seeded need to be needed and this season had all "her kids: grow up and move on. That left Fiona in flux and someone like her was prone to self destruction. It is just good to see that unlike Frank she is capable of learning from her mistakes and changing her behavior. Best scene in the episode was the bar scene where the patrons rattled off the gay people they knew. The look on Mickey's face was priceless. 2nd bess scene was Svetlana talking about choices. McDonald's, Burger King, or Wendy's? If I have to pick a 3rd I'd have to pick the scene where Fiona tried to explain to Mickey what was wrong with Ian. That was all kinds of sad.

And there is the rub that the shippers can't or won't see. To accept the ending you need to accept that Robin is unable to be happy without a big strong Ted in her life. Suddenly she was pining for Twuluv. That goes directly against eight seasons of character development; but hey it sails a ship to its mighty destination so who cares if it makes no sense and tells all ye little girls with big reporter dreams the wrong message. Life don't count without a big strong Ted in your life....oh and a blue french horn. Can't forget that.

I think the hardcore Ted/Robin shippers like the ending.. The ones who always maintained that the story was about Ted and Robin anyway. So yeah I can see how they would be happy. I can see how they would be the only ones who would be.

There may be one scene I might have liked to see. I would have loved the see Aidan ask Josh to cook for him which points back to Josh loving to cook and wanting to cook for his friends early in the show even though neither of them ate. I would have loved to see Josh's face light up at the idea of cooking for his best friend and Aidan loving the meal Josh cooked him. Other than that I don't really think there is much I would have changed. Yes it felt rushed but not in a bad way. Honestly I thought this was a love letter to the fans and that is all I wanted. A show where the writers knew that the fans loved the show and the show writers who loved the show as well. <----Hey Chaos Theory learned how to use the edit button- Hoorah!

For every How I Met Your Mother there is a Being Human. I still say the SyFy Channel lied and ended the show without warning and a season or two too early but they ended it right, Ooooh the feels. It wasn't perfect I am pretty sure the nitpickers are gonna nitpick but I am gonna say I loved it!

"My compliments to the chef." What exactly do you call it when you eat yourself? Oh Alana. Just...oh Alana.

I was actually thinking about how I would have ended the series because you can't complain about the ending and not bring your own. Personally I would have had Ted meet Tracy at the train station and them hit it off there and then realize the wedding was still probably going on so Ted asks Tracy for a dance and she says why not. They head to the wedding where they dance to the song: "Bless the Broken Road" By Rascall Flatts which except for maybe one verse is a perfect Ted Mosby Song. After a few verses the show turns to flashbacks and "Every long lost dream led me to where you are Others who broke my heart they were like Northern stars Pointing me on my way into your loving arms This much I know is true That God blessed the broken road That led me straight to you" and so on. And that kids, is how I met your mother. And then Ted starts talking about how the future isn't perfect. Barney and Robin eventually did break up and Robin went off to follow her reporter dreams and Barney knocked up #31 who died during child birth or ran off and forced him to step up and take care of a little girl on his own. Years later Robin comes back into his life and they hit it off again and she falls in love with both him and his daughter. They never marry but they are together to this day. As for Marshall and Lily; Marshall gets his dream of becoming a judge and then runs for mayor (or whatever) but a few weeks into his term a video of Beeraclease (or whoever) force him to resign and take a job at an evil law firm and the gang to this day joke that he never got to save the world but if he wants to destroy it he pretty much can. Then Ted starts talking about his life with Tracy and the kids break in and say that they know she is dying but Ted blurts that she isn't and that she will get better and its the kids that say it is ok that they have known for awhile now but then Tracy come in and says that she got the results and that she is in remission and then thanks the kids for keeping Ted busy and hands them each $50.00. Ted is annoyed and Tracy laughs that she might like his stories but he is a bit long winded. Ted tries to deny it but he is just happy that his wife will be fine. He ask her if she will ever agree to marry him and she comments that she will when he asks her correctly and mentions that he told Robin he loved her the day they met. Ted just smiles and then flashsback to the moment right after the dance ended and we see the gang all looking on as they watch Ted and Tracy dance. They each bet on how long it will be before Ted Ted's it up. Then the camera turns to Lily with a strange look in her eye and she simply says, "This one is going to last forever." And scene. End show.
