The long-gestating spinoff to How I Met Your Mother, this sequel/reboot follows a group of friends in New York who fall in and out of love searching for happily ever after. Sound familiar? Well, that's where the similarities between the two shows end.

How I Met Your Father, lacking the awareness and overall charm of its predecessor, re-treads its premise with uncomfortable humour, unnaturally thin characters, and a desperate need to remind audiences of the iconic series that came before.

Artificial in its depiction of modern romance and coloured by meandering plotpoints, clumsy rom-com tropes, a jarring laugh track, and unimaginative twists, How I Met Your Father ultimately watches like a passionless reimagining of a far superior show that should really have been left alone.

With Tinder jokes, cheesy one-liners and a complete lack of character, this is one series we really didn't need inflicted on us. It's just a big splash of nothing.
