How I Met Your Father – FOMO

  • Title: How I Met Your Father – FOMO
  • IMDb: link

The spin-off brings the characters back together in a cliched romcom misunderstanding as Valentina (Francia Raisa) tries to set up her boyfriend with the guys the met in the “Pilot” episode to widen his social circle, leading to Jesse (Christopher Lowell) and Sid (Suraj Sharma) mistakenly believing it’s a setup for Jesse and Sophie (Hilary Duff). There’s not much of interest here in the swanky New York night club that looks like a cheap set, with Sophie and Jesse eventually agreeing to be friends while teasing the idea that they may possibly be a match for each other (i.e. Ted and Robin) when the time is right. Despite the subpar writing, Duff is doing her best to keep the show afloat, but she’s going to need help if this show is going to have any chance to become more than a trivia question.
