I didn't mind it. HIMYM always kept it real. Whether it has Lily run away, or Marshall's dad dying, or Ted getting left at the altar, or Robin and Barney getting divorced. These are all very real situations we find ourselves in at a moment's notice, and they are heart-wrenching. Each is abrupt and painful in their own way. As for Ted getting with Robin at the end, this makes sense too. Very few viewers asked themselves, "Why is Ted telling his kids this story in the first place?" The fact that the story spent SO much time on Robin and so little time on the mother suddenly made sense; he wanted to see if his kids were okay with him getting together with Robin again. When an ending answers questions one didn't even think to ask, that's something truly special.

Game of Thrones failed because the directors were god-awful writers, and even worse when compared to George RR Martin. The ending of HIMYM felt complete; like the story was always about…real life, with real friends and real relationships, and especially real hardships.
