How I Met Your Father S2's Best Charlie & Valentina Story Copies HIMYM
The best plot for Charlie and Valentina in How I Met Your Father season 2 would revisit (and revise) Lily and Marshall’s season 2 exploits on How I Met Your Mother.

This approach allowed How I Met Your Father to emerge from How I Met Your Mother’s sizable shadow and succeed on its own merits despite a shaky start and a pilot that earned some brutal reviews upon the show's initial release.
