Barney Stinson (Neil Patrick Harris) Is Confirmed To Appears In How I Met Your Father Season 2

The second season of How I Met Your Father kicked off with a legendary...wait for it...surprise cameo. Neil Patrick Harris, who played Barney Stinson in How I Met Your Mother, made a comeback in the series. He is the second significant original show character to make an appearance on the spinoff series, although this is not an isolated incident. Additionally, Barney is expected to have a "huge influence" on Sophie's own journey, according to the How I Met Your Father producers.

You haven't dressed adequately if you didn't suit up for the "Cool and Chill" premiere of How I Met Your Father's second season. Not that it was possible for you to know that before viewing. The episode's Sophie, played by Hillary Duff, informed her kids about the moment she hit rock bottom toward the conclusion. Specifically, Barney Stinson's Audi was struck in that incident. The arrival of the character comes after Cobie Smulders' own unexpected entrance in season one.
That occurred in MacClaren's Pub where Sophie and Robin first met, thus it wasn't as shocking as Barney getting out of his car. Sophie had a beneficial conversation with Robin, but it was their only interaction thus far. How I Met Your Father's Barney will have a greater part going forward.
Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger, the show's creators, spoke with TVLine about the how and why of Patrick's comeback. They (happily) verified that he is not Sophie's father, and this is supported by both show mythology and basic math. How Barney will affect Sophie's romantic life is a mystery for now. However, it will be important. The second season of the show will see him in more episodes. According to Aptaker, Barney will not only gain knowledge about his own life but also "have a big influence on the direction, and core storyline, of our season."
That sounds truly legendary right about now. It's unfortunate that viewers must wait for a new episode to see it.
