Sophie Is How I Met Your Father’s New Barney – Dad Reveal Furthers HIMYM Link

Hulu’s How I Met Your Father, the spinoff from How I Met Your Mother, returned from its midseason break with an episode that featured a big reveal for Sophie, further linking her to Barney. The How I Met Your Father season 2 midseason finale featured a cameo from Barney that showed some parallels between the two characters and made Sophie realize that she wanted to find her father. HIMYF has Sophie telling her son the story of how she met her son’s father, which would make her the clear counterpart to HIMYM’s Ted. However, the reveal of her dad proved that Sophie is more like his best friend Barney.
