Good news "How I Met Your Mother" fans! The theory that the mother will die at the series has been debunked by "The Mother" herself, Cristin Milioti!
As How I Met Your Mother enters the last few episodes of its final season, wrapping March 31 on CBS, speculation has been rampant that Josh Radnor's Ted Mosby's bride-to-be has been dead the entire time his adult self has been narrating the series.
Well, the "mother is dead all along" theory has been debunked as Cristin Milioti politely disagrees about the theory.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter the day before the final day of filming for "How I met your mother", Cristin Milioti seemed genuinely put off by the suggestion the series would end on such a dark note.
"That's insane," says Milioti. "There are some crazy conspiracy theories, which really makes me love the fans more... That is so crazy."
Calling the finale "beautiful," she also notes that there weren't any alternate endings written or filmed in an attempt to maintain secrecy. "They've had this vision for nine years, and it's in great hands," she says of co-creators Carter Bays and Craig Thomas. "They know exactly what they want to do."
There are a few more episodes left before the finale on March 31, so while the series finale will be a tearjerker, you can rest assured that the "Mother" will be alive at the finale and in the future.
