'How I Met Your Mother' Mom May Be Dead: What Fans Have To Say

News that the mother in "How I Met Your Mother" may actually be dead by the time Ted finishes telling the story in 2030 has received mixed reactions from fans on Twitter. The mother from "How I Met Your Mother" is probably one person the whole world would want to meet. Fans of the series have been waiting nine whole seasons to find out who Ted's wife actually is. However, the March 3 "Vesuvius" episode of the series hinted that he Mother we've all been waiting for all along may actually be dead by the time Ted finishes telling his story in 2030. The episode, which takes place in 2024 after they've already married, finds Ted (Josh Radnor) telling the Mother (Cristin Milioti) stories, including how Robin's mother came to Robin and Barney's wedding. She isn't surprised, saying, "What mother is going to miss her daughter's wedding?," which leads Ted to get teary-eyed. Earlier in the episode, she tells Ted, "I don't want you to be the guy who lives in his stories. Life only moves forward." The daughter's wedding exchange has led many critics to assume that the Mother is gravely ill or already dead by the time Ted tells his kids about how he met their mother, according to NY Daily News. After the episode aired HIMYM fans flocked to Twitter to share their thoughts and air their grievances. While some expressed anger, most of the viewers seemed to find the dead mother a touching, albeit upsetting, possibility. "Himym you are not in my good books with that ending right now. No you are not. No no no. no. NO. #himym," a viewer named Laura tweeted. "@HIMYM_CBS I won't be happy, but it would be beautiful, but tragic, writing for all these seasons. It would all make sense," another tweet by George G Smith Jr read. Right now, the news is only speculations and it's not sure whether the Mother is actually dead or not. Viewers will just have to wait and watch to see how the show finally ends.
