It's a good thing I'm not watching this in real time, and that S2 should be coming in my mailbox tomorrow. If I had to wait months for a new season, I probably would have wandered off and not come back. Well, the instant watching and the knowledge that Ted and Robin don't stay together.
The last third or so of the show really bugged me quite a lot. I started actively disliking Ted, to the point of it affecting me liking the show. (Wanting to bitchslap Ted every time he appears on screen can't be good.) If the writers meant for Ted's persistence to be romantic, it failed with me. I found it creepy and was thinking Robin should be getting a restraining order. Instead, it worked on her (I still have no idea why Robin is attracted to Ted) and they wound up together.
And then they separated Marshall and Lily! Hmph.
Yeah, I probably would have given up on this show if I'd watched it when it aired.
