The woman of his dreams is out there — the question is, who is she? — Told in a series of flash backs, How I Met Your Mother is the hilariously unpredictable story of how twenty-something Ted meets his soul mate and says goodbye to the singles world of pick-up lines, one night stands, and relationship "deal-breakers." With friends Marshall and Lily's wedding fast approaching, the outrageously inappropriate Barney remains a consummate bachelor, while Ted's romance with Robin heats up, but is she really the one for him? Things have a funny way of working out in this delightfully fresh and fast-paced comedy.
