Agreed, didn't like it at all, I wonder how did they come up with it and when, cause well the show wasn't about the mother at all so they had to explain it somehow, right? Anyways it felt like the last two episodes should have been explained season-long, cause you know when an almost entire season is about Barney and Robin getting married and the preparations, just for them to get divorced in the next episode is just idiotic on so many levels...
I wonder what the alternative ending will be.

You mean how they made a huge deal about the locker with Barney not givinga crap and playing lazer tag and Ted trying to recover it like crazy by even jumping in a river? And Robin asking him if she's marrying the wrong guy before the wedding or asking everyone to tell her that marrying Barney isn't a horrible idea?

I don't understand what does it really have to do with my post, but I'll bite.

Sure Robin had cold feet before the wedding, Ted tried to get her back, to the last second. And that's the thing. He tried the last 3 seasons, doing all kinds of extreme, romantic stuff, and yet Robin rejected him EVERY SINGLE TIME. She told him she doesn't love him time and time again, last time on the beach.

Sure maybe the pendant or whatever that was made a huge impact on her, but when Barney told her he will be always honest with her, and admitted Ted found it, not him, she passionately kissed him, was in heaven. Didn't go back to Ted, stayed and got married with Barney.

One episode later, they divorced (after a season long devoted for preparation to the wedding lol) and Robin is back in love with Ted suddenly! Sure Ted was with Tracy then, and we know Robin always wanted what she couldn't have (lobsters) but that's just ridiculous.

And Barney...you say he is a Womanizer. Sure. So why did the writers tried so hard to change his personality throughout 3 last seasons which he spent in relationships with Robin, Karma (don't remember her name), Robin back again until he was married. Him wanting desperately to have kids, etc. They butchered the awesome Barney we knew in the first seasons, just for him to realize in the last two episodes that it turns out he likes bimboos more than Robin.
