      She also received a Tony nomination for creating the role of the girl (female lead) in the show "Once" on Broadway.

        I watched some interview clips of her on Youtube and she's perfect for Ted - sweet, funny, charming, a good singer and musician. She's warmer and more caring than Robin. She's similar to Lilly but more independent.
        I think she is someone Ted can "fall in love with and create a long term loving and warm relationship."
        Robin is just too cold and career-minded to be with dorky Ted.
        Ted needs someone who has just as much Heart as he has.
        I think they are doing 10 episodes for season 9, so it will be interesting to see how they finish the series.

          Ted wont be dating Cristin Milioti, he'll be dating her character. You can't say she's "perfect for Ted" until the new season starts and we meet the character.
          The details of my life are quite inconsequential.

            I also think that she's perfect for the role
            She's pretty but not supermodel hot, and I'm actually glad that they decided not to go for the bimbo look. Ted is not after that. There's something quirky about her which fits what we already know about her - the painting of robots playing sports, the making breakfast food sing show tunes, the laughing at Ted's bad joke about shrimp

                I wasn't expecting the mother to be a slammin' hottie. I always pictured Ted marrying the fun, "girl next door" type. To me, Cristin fits the bill for "the mother" perfectly.

                  Man. I saw her randomly on the side of the page and clicked on her because she looks like AlysonDidn't expect all this spoiler alert. I've been watching HIMYM. Was it intentional for her to look like Lily? It's odd.

                    The only slight quib is that she's 11 years younger than Josh Radnor. Now yes Ted is fairly young at heart and in terms of looks for 38, but I'm not quite sure I buy him marrying someone under 30.
                    Congrats to the Central Coast MarinersA league champs for 2013.

                        It makes sense for her to be years younger. Ted has been out of school for a while being an architect. When he finally becomes a professor, when he's teaching in the wrong classroom, he states that she was a student in that class. That implies, since he had his 31st birthday that year, and she is a student, there are possibly about 10 years between them.

                          Ted is not 38. Josh Radnor is. Ted is 35.
                          Milioti is 28 but YM could easily be at least 30.

                            I was her on Broadway in Once - she's great! (Also received a Tony nom.) Perfect choice. I'm very excited for this final season.

                              Why so many posts about the same thing. never get this. Now I have to post this too often 🙂
                              Who said she's the mother? You saw a girl with the umbrella. Could be the friend of the mother coming home from a visit to London, so the mother lent her the umbrella before the journey or something like this. This is just to easy and the showing of the face this causally at the end of a season like a cliffhanger would just be against every rule of television. They do this to mislead you.
                              I do not think, that they will show the face of the real mother to the audience untill TED sees her. He will see her, he will turn into a pillar of salt with his stupid face on for a few seconds and THEN you will see the face.
                              And keep in mind: They reactivated Ms. Katey "I was Joey once" Holmes just to bring back the slutty pumpkin. The mother will be special.
                              BTW: She is credited as "Girl with the umbrella" not as Mother indicating, that this is not the end of the story.

                                She is The Mother. The writer and the creators of the show have already confirm it.
                                And, according to C&C, the season 9 will spin in the Barney Robin wedding weekend, and the gang will meet her before Ted does.
                                And, 'the girl with the yellow umbrella' is perfect as the credit. We know The Mother has the yellow umbrella, and stating 'The Mother' right away is too bland. Also, Ted didnt mention anything about The Mother right? It was a scene where the audience met her first. So, 'the girl with the yellow umbrella' is enough said.

                                    I think she is really pretty and also has the girl next door look and yes does bare a resemblance to lily (I also think she looks likes Jennifer Love Hewitt) I am also pretty sure I remember reading somewhere that she is related to lily and might even be her sister? Also that Ted had met her before but had never really thought of her as a girlfriend? I can't wait for the new series and last series and see how it pans out x

                                      I find her very cute. I am glad they choosen her to play The Mother. She and Ted make a good couple! (Though I used to think earlier it would be ineresting if the Mother was portrayed by Lndsy Fonseka, who is pretty adult now to portray Ted's wife, I know the producers weren't interested in this)

                                        I agree.
                                        Im glad they chose someone who was ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE. especially since I simply hated most of the women Ted has dated(obvious exceptions), didnt like Stella(not even a little bit), it was obvious(from the first episode) that Robin was not the mother, the only one I liked(Victoriashe was simply perfect for Ted..until they chose to turn her into the terrible cliche by having her state.."You cannot be friends with Robin") they chose to eliminate.

                                          The more I watch The Mother, she is/was perfectly cast. Wonderfully warm character, just similar enough to Ted and Mz Milioti is the perfect blend of Robin and Lily (feature wise).
