Ted Mosby

            Ted Mosby is the main character in the hit TV show, "How I Met Your Mother". He is portrayed by Josh Radnor, one of my favorite actors. A little background on Ted:  he is an architect from Shaker Heights, Ohio. Ted accomplishes his dream of becoming an architect in college, where he meets his two best friends, Lily and Marshall. The hit television show, "How I Met Your Mother", opens with its catchphrase, "And kids that's how I met your mother." It is centered around the story of his quest to find his wife. When I think of the name Ted Mosby; I think of a die-hard romantic, architect, a man searching for his soul mate, and a man full of hilarious statements.

Ted has spent seven grueling seasons trying to find his lover. He has certain requirements for his wife such as loving Star Wars and being obsessed with quoting poetry. This ends up being a problem because Ted really wants a female version of himself. Ted is not alone in this search; he has his best friends Marshall and Lily (who are married); Robin, a woman who goes in and out of relationships frequently, and Barney, who lives to be single and is completely against marriage. They all hang out at a bar below Ted's apartment, called McLaren's Pub. This is the main scene where the show takes place. But like Ted says in many episodes, "I'll get to that later".

These four set him up with different women, but he always finds a flaw with every single women he dates. This narrows his search down to one woman who is apparently non-existent because of Ted's incredibly high standards for his wife. He has found one woman who meets his standards; Stella, the woman to whom he was engaged to be married... but he didn't fit hers, which is made very clear when she abruptly leaves him at the altar.

The five friends are there as Ted throws out one women after the other. They encounter many adventures due to his or her own faults, each of the events propel Ted closer and closer to his wife. Sorry, but "My head is about to explode and I don't want to get it on anybody's waffles, so I'm leaving."
