  • Ted versus Zoey

    7.0
    "Good"

    "Landmarks" is a good How I Met Your Mother episode. It wasn't anything special. As much as I enjoyed Ted and Zoey, I'm glad they broke up in this episode. They were started to get annoying, and it's better that they break up now before they get really annoying. I love how this episode was filmed with the flashbacks explaining why Ted makes his decision to tear down the Arcadian. I give this episode a 7/10.moreless

    Pretty predictable all things considered. I for one enjoyed the Ted & Zoey relationship contrary to popular opinion but we all already knew that it wasn't going too last, and we all knew that Zoey was not the mother.

    That is definitely why their relationship was doomed from the start, especially when the Arcadian hung in the balance. Most of the lines and jokes here were pretty ridiculous and contrived. Like the dream? Or Robin's "possible outcomes."

    The fact that they didn't reveal how they managed to destroy the Arcadian was a huge cop out and I felt like they could of used the time they had to explain why. If this is Zoey's last episode, it would also be a horrible sendoff of her character so hopefully we get some closer come next episode. So-so episode for me.moreless

    I came home to see HIMYM from an emotional meeting with a girl. Zoey says I gotta take this cab. She also said I gotta take this cab. That line was spot on,"Its nice to get one last look to remember what you were tryin to save". I told my girl I love her but she's getting engaged in a couple of weeks. I knew about it. She knew about my feelings. We are great friends but some things don't work out. That line bout the one last look ripped me. Seriously, dripping. Couldn't sleep the whole night coz the flute music at the end during zoey's and ted's confrontation was playing through my mind. Been 6 seasons of HIMYM and it still speaks to me. Won't ever forget that girl and won't ever forget HIMYM.moreless

  • Spoiler - Ted decides to continue on with the GNB project, which spells the end of his short lived relationship with Zoe.

    "Mediocre"

    I was dissapointed with this episode on a lot of levels. As someone else mentioned, I liked Zoe, but I fault the writers for letting us know early on that she wasn't going to be the mother. It made watching her relationship with Ted somewhat pointless.

    Also, because from the very start, Ted supported destroying the Arcadian, it didn't make any sense that Zoe would suddenly be so hurt by his decision. Yes, he changed his mind for a few days but so what? Although, it is touching that she has a connection to the building, she herself said it was disgusting inside and should be torn down. I also found it very odd that Ted never really considers Barney's problems in making his decision. He saves the building for self interested reason of furthering his career, which he should do as he has yet to build a single building. However, Barney stuck his neck out for him and it really didn't seem to matter to him that he would be fired. Also, Ted would have faced serious legal consequences for breaching his contract with GNB and possibly costing them the million dollar building deal for his little speech.

    Final thoughts, why would the Landmark committee care what Ted thought about the building? As the GNB architect, he is biased so I fail to see how his opinion would really matter to them. The only really good part of this episode was the bit about the dog Tugboat.moreless

    This was a very interesting instlament of the HIMYM series, as a big moment comes about in the balance between Ted's love life and his career. I think it was very interesting t o see how Ted would respond to the 'Landmarks' question, and I certainly really loved Robin's idea of the three scenarios, most notably with the ninja and the dart0throwing!

    Also, I really loved Robin's comment regarding Angry Birds and chess! That was just hilarious, and something that I won't forget too quitckly! Vry good writing!

    All up, a terrific episode, and nice to see HIMYM lifting its game! The season finale should be great, and I can't wait to see how this season will conclude!moreless
