The post Hulu Cancels “How I Met Your Father” After Two Seasons appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>Conceived as a spin-off of CBS’ beloved sitcom How I Met Your Mother, this series centered on a woman named Sophie Tompkins, telling her son the story of how she met his father, by focusing on the lives of her close-knit group of friends trying to navigate love and relationships during the 2020s.
In addition to Hilary Duff and Kim Cattrall as different versions of Sophie, How I Met Your Father also starred Chris Lowell, Francia Raisa, Tom Ainsley, Tien Tran, and Suraj Sharma. It also featured cameos from several stars of the original CBS series, including Cobie Smulders (as Robin Scherbatsky) and Neil Patrick Harris (as Barney Stinson).
Executive producer Craig Thomas confirmed the show’s cancelation on social media, and expressed gratitude to everyone who made it possible, “Thanks to the wonderful cast and crew who worked so hard on How I Met Your Father, and to all who checked it out, sometimes this is how it goes in this crazy business.”

]]>Harris was one of the key cast members of the original show’s ensemble, and the role of womanizing playboy Barney Stinson put him on the map. He gave us many iconic catchphrases during his run on the show and scored four Primetime Emmy Award nominations for his performance.
How I Met Your Father explores a similar concept as the original show, but with a new set of characters. It centers on Sophie (Hilary Duff), a hopelessly romantic photographer looking for her one true love in New York City.
Harris isn’t the first cast member of How I Met Your Mother to appear in the spinoff series. Cobie Smulders made a cameo as Robin Scherbatsky, and Kyle MacLachlan, Laura Bell Bundy, and Alexis Denisof also came back to reprise their recurring roles from the original show.
The midseason finale of How I Met Your Father will premiere on Hulu on March 28, and the show will take a brief hiatus before continuing its 20-episode second season run on May 23.

]]>This comedy series will center on Sophie and her close-knit group of friends, as they try to figure out who they are, what they want out of life, and how to fall in love in the age of dating apps and limitless options. Sophie will retell the story of meeting the love of her life to her kids in the same way Ted Mosby did in the original series.
Lowell joins Duff in the role of Sophie’s friend Jesse, who’s been described as an aspiring musician who works as an Uber driver to make ends meet and lives with his best friend Tom. He’s also smart, edgy, and cynical about love.
Lowell is no stranger to being a supporting player in female-driven comedy shows. He’s best known for his role in the Netflix series GLOW, while his most recent credits include the roles in Promising Young Woman and Breaking News in Yuba County.

]]>The show will feature Sophie (Duff) telling her son about how she met his father in a story that starts in 2021 where Sophie and her friends are trying to discover who they are, what they want in life, and how to find love in the age of dating apps and tons of options.
The series comes from This Is Us co-showrunners and Love, Victor co-creators Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger. How I Met Your Mother creators Carter Bays and Craig Thomas will be executive producing. In addition to starring in the series, Duff will produce with Adam Londy serving as co-executive producer.
“I’ve been incredibly lucky in my career to play some wonderful characters and I’m looking forward to taking on the role of Sophie. As a huge fan of ‘How I Met Your Mother,’ I’m honored and even a little nervous that Carter and Craig would trust me with the sequel of their baby. Isaac and Elizabeth are brilliant, and I can’t wait to work alongside them and all of their genius. Just fangirling over here getting to join the Hulu Originals and 20th families. I realize these are big shoes to fill and I’m excited to slip my 6 ½’s in there!,” Duff said in a statement per Variety.
How I Met Your Mother was on CBS for nine seasons from 2005-2014 with over 200 episodes. Josh Radnor, Cobie Smulders, Neil Patrick Harris, Jason Segel, Alyson Hannigan, and Bob Saget starred in the series.
