How I Met Your Father Theory Sets Up Tracy's Perfect HIMYM Cameo
One theory for How I Met Your Father uses a new connection to set up a perfect cameo from HIMYM’s title character, Tracy. After nearly a decade of building anticipation for the mother’s identity, HIMYM finally revealed Ted’s future wife, Tracy McConnell (Cristin Milioti), in the season 8 finale. HIMYM season 9 then used various flash-forwards to give glimpses into Ted’s future life with Tracy, but these small moments weren’t enough when considering how well Milioti’s character was received before she was killed off in the series finale. Since Tracy is still alive in How I Met Your Father’s current timeline, the spinoff series is the best way to see more of the love of Ted’s life.
