Finally, a spinoff that we are not wary about is making its way to our phones, laptops, and TVs. The new show’s predecessor ended in 2014 without plans for any reboots, special episodes, or spinoffs.

Seven years later, ‘How I Met Your Mother’ creators have come back to executive produce a spinoff. Read more to explore the details of the upcoming ‘How I Met Your Father’ series sequel.

‘How I Met Your Mother’ is a show that many of us hated to see come to an end, despite its complete storyline. We watched Ted Mosby tell his children the story of how he met his wife for nine seasons without fail.

Now, we get to do the same with Sophie, who tells her son the story of how she met his dad. Sophie is the main character who will navigate life and dating in 2021 with her close-knit group of friends as Ted did.

While many are hoping for a link between the original show and the spinoff, it’s unclear if there will be one. However, the first show’s creators are part of the executive production team, so anything is possible.

After working on the pilot for two years, ‘How I Met Your Father’ was picked up for ten episodes. Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger created and wrote the series sequel and will also act as executive producers.

Isaac and Elizabeth are showrunners for ‘This Is Us’ and creators for ‘Love, Victor,’ so we can expect excellence. Hulu Originals and ABC Entertainment president Craigh Erwich shared a few words expressing his excitement.
