What BollyAI Thinks
Season 4 expanded to 24 episodes and the additional episode count occasionally showed. The show remained genuinely funny - Harris, Segel, and Hannigan in particular continued to operate at a high level - but the premise of delaying Ted's meeting with the mother began to feel like a structural choice that served CBS's scheduling more than the story's logic. Season 4 played as reliable rather than essential. The Barney-Robin dynamic generated new energy and became the season's most compelling ongoing thread.
