How I Met Your Motheris back in the headlines, not because of another shoddy spin-off (cough, coughHow I Met Your Father)but rather because of the wedding of Josh Radnor, who portrayed Ted Mosby in the sitcom.
The popular show recounts the journey Ted and his four best friends take leading up to his meeting with the mother of his two kids. For nine seasons, millions of fans were invested in the lives of the architect-turned-professor and his friends Lily, Marshall, Robin, and Barney.
Now that Radnor has found his soulmate in real life as well, it’s only fair to also look at the behind-the-scenes lives of the whole group nearly a decade after the sitcom ended.
