Cast of How I Met Your Mother: Where Are They Now?

How I Met Your Mother followed a group of friends trying to build their careers and relationships in New York City. When the long running CBS sitcom ended in 2014, fans had mixed reactions over the season finale as Ted’s search for the perfect woman ended with him getting back together with ex-girlfriend Robin. The show ended with player Barney as a dad, Marshall and Lily growing their family, and the widow Ted standing outside Robin’s window with a blue French horn. The MacLaren’s gang is still missed and here is a peak at what the actors have been doing since leaving How I Met Your Mother.

Stella (Sarah Chalke) broke Ted’s heart when she left him at the altar and then moved on to another TV series where she appeared as Amy Gazanian in Backstrom. She also plays Beth in the series Rick and Morty.
