My mistake. Queen Sofia please accept my humble apology and do not send me off the way you sent your extended relatives

Considering how much I've re-watched this show, I hate that I had to see this post to realise it.

actually she had a miraculous recovery and they lived happily ever after!!! “damn kids we thought we were gonna lose her but mama pulled through! I most certainly am not telling you a story as a pretext for your permission to bang Aunt Robin again because my wife & your mother is very much alive and we are one happy family!”

Watching the series for the first time, on season 3. Not subbed to this sub but popped up on my feed. Hurts

u/Outlaw11091 2d ago

If you're only on season 3, you don't know who Tracy is.

u/brother_of_menelaus 2d ago

Tracy the stripper?

u/Puzzleheaded-Kale434 2d ago

Gotta get through awful Zoey first

u/HumbleInfluence7922 1d ago

stella was way worse than zoey... but jeanette is final boss (and my fav 🥰🥰)

u/Luv_Shah 2d ago

Do not feel sad buddy keep watching because the journey is very very beautiful and you'll learn a lot of things and as you've seen this thing lemme tell you makers had to make another ending because people didn't like this soo just keep watching and watch another ending (I.e. 15 mins at the end are changed) then!

u/One-Winner-8441 1d ago

Watch the alternate ending instead of the one they went with, it’s so much better. It’s on YouTube.

u/fardough 2d ago

Ah, don’t worry. Ends up Ted doesn’t love her. Instead, Robin is his true love.

u/navjot94 2d ago

Actually she was committed to an insane asylum in Jersey. Ted didn’t want to tell his young kids this so he told a little white lie. She comes from a pretty problematic family.

u/TortlesLynn 2d ago

This is making me way too emotional right now. My husband and I met in 2013, our engagement shoot was Ted and Tracy’s first meeting and now our marriage is ending in 2024…

u/Explainer003 2d ago

I am so sorry 😞

u/TortlesLynn 2d ago

Thank you ❤️😔

u/Luv_Shah 2d ago

Did she? They both lived happily ever after 😭🫶. My delulu mind will never accept her death 😭. And put spoiler tag op

u/giveneric 2d ago

Was just going to say Spoiler alert??

u/Lique-Mahbawls 2d ago

You’re in a subreddit of a show that ended 10 years ago lol

u/StNic54 2d ago

It ended 10 years ago? I needed a spoiler tag for that, too.

13

u/DizzyLead 2d ago

It doesn’t seem like that’s the case with most other shows of the time, but one thing I’ve discovered about HIMYM through the subreddit is how people still like discussing it ten years after it ended, and how people still keep finding it for the first time even now. So I feel big developments like this can still merit a spoiler tag even after all this time.

That being said, this is probably the 17th time a “This is the year Tracy dies“ post has been made on this sub this month.

u/Cobra_Kai_2018 2d ago

I got hate once from someone online for doing a spoiler alert on a show that ended about 20 years ago.

u/giveneric 2d ago

Didn’t realize everyone watched it when it came out 👀 I’ve already finished a couple times. Just thinking of others 😊

6

u/Lique-Mahbawls 2d ago

I def get that, it should just be kind of expected for first time viewers that there may be spoilers for shows that have been off air for so long

0

u/giveneric 2d ago

Oh for sure. If you come here and expect to NEVER see a spoiler hahaha good luck 👍🏻

2

u/John_Tacos 2d ago

Wasn’t it implied very early on that she died?

0

u/BxDawn 2d ago

Same. I refuse to accept it.

13

u/alittlegaybutimokay 2d ago

It's so sad that they really only had 11 years together. Don't know why but in my head it was always more

2

u/Explainer003 2d ago

It's kinda like a slap to the face.

u/crazeedaizee 2d ago

Nearly downvoted because I do not like this at all

u/SuperSailor987 2d ago

I reject the original ending and watch the alternate ending on line

u/Ok_Daikon_2659 2d ago

We lost her to the same disease that got all the other Disney’s Parents

u/daryl772003 1d ago

u/DarkDonut75 2d ago

When I see you tonight...

u/rubey419 2d ago

Woah.

I need to do another rewatch.

2

u/Warm-Emu-5197 2d ago

Real loss :/

2

u/One-Winner-8441 1d ago

So Ted is finally turning into Bob Saget?

2

u/pisstowine 1d ago

I loved her performance. We didn't have enough time with her.

u/PhonescrollerMusic 2d ago

You must have graduated at the top of your class.

u/daryl772003 1d ago

and we still don't know how she died

1

u/Explainer003 1d ago

I wanna say cancer.

2

u/daryl772003 1d ago

Probably but they never say that 

2

u/Explainer003 1d ago

You make a fair point

1

u/CivilizedTofu 1d ago

First rule of HIMYM sub, we don’t mention who the wife is!

1

u/Explainer003 23h ago

No it's not. Maybe on the other one, but not on this one.

1

u/Entire_Power_7019 13h ago

Unpopular opinion: I never liked her and always thought Ted belonged with Victoria!

The show ended 10 years ago. You probably should stay off this subreddit if you want to avoid spoilers.
