How I met your mother New series (spoilers Included)

So the final series of How I met your mother started last night what did you think of it? I thought the first episode was a bit of weak one, did enjoy the interaction between Lilly and the mother of the train, I don't know wheter I'd prefer I'd not known the mother was the mother and just see all the interaction with all the regular cast.

The second episdoe i thought was much stronger, am I the only person who is getting annoyed with the whole Ted wants Robin and he's trying to win her back? It seems like every single season they have had some story line based on Ted and Robin will they wont they, love of my life etc.

The final seen of the second episode with Ted and the mother going to the bar was very touching.

On a completly different note, do you think the concept of the 9th series is going to work? How they are doing it, the whole series is based on the 54 hours upto and including the Robins and Barneys wedding with flash forwards and flashbacks to pad out the epsiode.

Thoughts?

I thought the episodes were just fine. I think they just want to show that Ted will always have a soft spot for Robin but we all know they don't end up together. I did enjoy Lilly's banter with Ted, her interaction with the mother, and her pre wedding drinking haha.
I really liked the final scene of the two of them in the bar as well.

I did not know that this season will be based on the few days prior to the wedding. That will be interesting, the flash forward threw off my roommate last night when we were watching it.
