Viewers find 'How I Met Your Father' to be a light-hearted and inclusive series that maintains the essence of its predecessor, 'How I Met Your Mother', with a modern twist. The characters are endearing, and the show includes clever nods to the original. However, some feel it falls short of the humor and impact of 'HIMYM', and are disappointed by the lack of a conclusive ending and the shorter season length.

👍 Clever nods to the original series

👎 May lack the humor and closure of 'HIMYM'
