    Barney's outbreak at his father "Then why couldn't you have been that dad to me," is peak emotional devastation. Marshall's dad's death never ceases to break my heart.

  • @fjosok6359
    @fjosok6359 28 дней назад +6

    The "best" part about Marshall's dad passing away is the Hidden countdown that plays throughout the episode. There is a visible countdown from 50 down too the Cab being 1 (001) and that's when he hears the news. It's real subtle and gut wrenching when you know it, and see it creeping up. I recommend anyone too find the video, episode or summary online and just watch. The style of narrative foreshadowing is ridiculous!

    The San Francisco thing always bugged me because Lily is always painted as the bad guy, but Marshall is the one who gave her an ultimatum. He told her they had to break up if she chose to do the internship... A summer internship. HE made her choose instead of just being long distance for a little while.

    • @Howesitgoing1
      @Howesitgoing1 Месяц назад +2

      So doing the ultimatum was not good I’ll agree on that but that’s not the entire ultimatum. In the fight he said ‘promise me that you won’t just break up with me in 3 months because I’d rather get it over with now’. (Not direct quote) He initially wasn’t even mad at her for going it was her 1) Not telling him she was even thinking this. 2) Switching from I wasn’t going to do it to I have to do it. And 3) Not promising she would even come back to love him.
      I don’t think it’s her decisions that made her the bad guy but the way she made them were. Also, not saying Marshall was perfect but he was afraid he was just gonna get heartbroken afterwards so might as well rip the bandaid off.

    When Marshall learns of his father's death, that was harsh and the acting was superb. But the one that ripped my heart out was when Tracy tells Ted that no mother is going to miss her daughter's wedding, and Ted begins breaking down, realizing that Tracy isn't going to be there for their daughter's wedding. I didn't watch the show in order so that was how I found out that Tracy was gone and Ted was narrating the entire series to his kids as a widower.

    There’s a scene in the episode where they steal the lion head from the Arcadian and Marshall’s boss is going through his divorce and lost his dog tugboat. The entire episode he’s being used as comedy but at the end of the episode when the gang finds Arthur, he’s yelling at a new dog saying that “he’s not tugboat and he’ll never be tugboat” and then breaks down. I remember watching that episode after my family/brother got a new cat after I left for school. We had lost our old cat who had been with us since before I was born. I guess I hadn’t really grieved and i really had a hard time seeing the new cat and had a lot of resentment and keep saying that our old cat was the bestest) That moment seeing someone who tries to move on with a new pet and seeing the breakdown of missing their baby. That is one of the saddest moments in the show for me.

    Another fun fact about #1: The lead up to the news that his dad died was sort-of foreshadowed by the aesthetics of the set. Each scenes would have a number presented somewhere that is missable, but becomes extremely clear once you’d seen it and can no longer unseen it. Then throughout the episode, it counted down until 1, and ended with Lily telling Marshall the sad news.

    While the 3rd saddest moment on this list is my favourite, the 12th moment from the season 7 episode "No Preasure" is how the ending scene was SO perfect (even for that song choice at the end), it might've work as a series finale even it went downhill after that episode. Even tho Season 8 is great but Season 9 really killed the entire series completely (especially the ending).

  • @bungoutarou
    @bungoutarou 13 дней назад

    I was kinda disappointed at the ending at first but the more I rewatch it, the more it makes sense. I read it somewhere that after Tracy gone, Ted met Robin and there Robin asked Ted if they still have their "if we both still single at 40 deal" but Ted said that he couldn't anymore so actually it took time, maybe years, for Ted to moved on from Tracy's death but the show cut that scene, left us unclosure. Besides, the ending stays true to the title so in my opinion it's neat.

      And one , Lilly took the SF painting fellowship she didn't inform Marshall she just went ahead and did it without hearing what he had to say first , then left him , came back after it went South and all throughout the series Marshall did make some huge sacrifices for Lilly, for example he took a job he didn't want to after finding out about Lilly's credit card problems which she didn't even wanna tell him about while on the other hand he always mostly supported Lilly , so practically though it was an impulse decision for him to take the job it was as well wrong not to tell Lilly about it
