How I Met Your Father, the highly anticipated series, has met its unfortunate demise—it’s officially cancelled.
Starring the talented Hilary Duff as Sophie, a hopeful photographer seeking love in the vibrant landscape of New York City, the show featured a remarkable ensemble cast including Christopher Lowell, Francia Raisa, Suraj Sharma, and Tom Ainsley. Adding to the allure, Kim Cattrall lent her voice as the future version of Sophie, narrating the captivating events of the series.
As a delightful surprise, Neil Patrick Harris and Cobie Smulders briefly revisited their beloved characters from How I Met Your Mother, each making a memorable appearance in one episode.
The announcement arrives hot on the heels of Hulu’s decision to cancel another cherished show, The Great, after three heartwarming seasons.
HIMYF showrunners Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger had previously expressed their intentions to bring back “all of the original characters” from HIMYM, teasing fans with the promise of nostalgic reunions. Alas, it appears that these plans will remain unrealized.
Meanwhile, Cattrall recently graced the season two finale of the Sex and the City continuation series, And Just Like That. In light of her newfound availability, brace yourselves for countless baseless speculations circulating online about her potential return to the iconic show in the future, despite her firm declaration that this marks the limit of her involvement.
Now, passionate fans of the How I Met Your… franchise are left to ponder which outcome is more disheartening: the unsatisfactory conclusion reminiscent of How I Met Your Mother or the absence of any conclusion at all, akin to How I Met Your Father.
