Josh Radnor says How I Met Your Mother series finale jumps through time

Well, friends, it's finally arrived. The How I Met Your Mother series finale airs tonight at 8 p.m. Eastern on CBS, which means we have just one hour left with Ted, Barney, Robin, Marshall and Lily.

But before the show signs off for good, Josh Radnor, who plays Ted, has offered fans a brief preview of the final episode. It's not surprising that the finale would jump through time, but it might surprise some fans just how far through time the episode will move.

"It's probably the most far reaching finale in terms of years it covers," Radnor said in an interview on Entertainment Weekly Radio on SiriusXM. "We go from 2005 to 2030 or 2035. It's a 30-year voyage all over time and space with these characters."

He was understandably tight-lipped about what happens in the episode, but he did offer this assessment:

"Whatever people have loved and responded to with the show, it's all there in the finale. I watched it last week and I thought it was amazing and it made me feel really proud to be part of such a great show."

According to EW.com, the cast and crew took two weeks to film the finale in early March. They celebrated together on the final night with pizza and drinks on the MacLaren's soundstage. Jason Segel could not be there because of another commitment, so the cast and crew brought out Marshpillow to sit in his place.
