How I Met Your Mother ended in 2014 with a handful of mysteries that went unsolved, but when Hulu announced that they were producing a spinoff, How I Met Your Father, there was hope that some unanswered questions from the parent series would be addressed in the new one.
The Hulu television show ran for only two seasons before being canceled in 2023, marking the likely (now permanent) end of the How I Met Your Mother universe.
While a few stars from the CBS sitcom made cameos in the spinoff series and gave fans updates on their characters, they didn’t answer every question left unsolved from the first show.
