Another How I Met Your Mother character’s cameo on How I Met Your Father has clarified the new show’s place in the overall HIMYM timeline.
How I Met Your Mother was a sitcom staple during its nine-season run from 2005 to 2014, and the concept was so unique that it spawned a spinoff with the gender roles flipped. Kim Catrall has taken on Bob Saget’s role as the narrator, and Hillary Duff stars as Catrall’s younger self.
