I still love it, and I know it will pay off. It was GREAT and original when it first started, with a touch of heart and very well written. I missed half of seasons 7&8, 6 was up and down but through 5 was pretty good. It has gone on for about 2seasons too long and the characters have become parodies of themselves, but they still find a way to infuse something new into them.
I think most people dislike it because Ted, Barney and Robin really aren't likeable people. Barney is an a$$hole, Robin is an a$$hole, and Ted is just a nerd. But the best part of the show has always been their camaraderie. It's one of the few shows where the friendship feels genuine and every tragedy they encounter, they go through it together.
