10 Once Awesome TV Shows That Now Suck

9. How I Met Your Mother

how-i-met-your-mother-50619 How I Met Your Mother has proved to be a pretty funny show with great performances by Neil Patrick Harris, Alyson Hannigan, and Jason Segel. So why did it make the list? How about the fact that we're on the ninth season and we're just now meeting the goddamn mother? The entire series has been stretched out much too far and should've been wrapped up at least a couple seasons back. While the aforementioned actors make the show enjoyable the appointed protagonist Ted and on-again off-again girlfriend Robin are among the most annoying and boring characters on television. Even the once loveable characters have become tiresome and the jokes dull. It seems the only reason viewers have continued watching is to finally meet the eponymous mother. Fortunately, CBS has done the right thing by finally allowing the show to rest in peace as the ninth season will be its last. Unfortunately, they're still dragging out the season while force-feeding us ridiculous plots. Why does Barney have to marry Robin of all people? Leave her at the altar, Barney; she's no good for you!
