Where to start with How I Met Your Mother

In order. It is one long joke with a punchline at the end and there is no way to take it out of sequence. Two things worth knowing before you start: season nine spends all twenty-four of its episodes on one weekend, which people either love or cannot stand, and there is an alternate ending on the season nine disc that exists because of how divisive the real one was. The spin-off is a separate show and needs none of this.

  1. 1
    How I Met Your Mother, seasons 1 to 8 How I Met Your Mother

    A hundred and eighty-four episodes, and the shape of the thing: a framing story in 2030 and everything else in flashback.

  2. 2
    How I Met Your Mother, season 9 How I Met Your Mother

    Twenty-four episodes, one weekend, and the ending people are still arguing about.

  3. 3
    How I Met Your Father How I Met Your Father

    Optional and separate. Thirty episodes on Hulu with a new cast and the same framing device.

Sync & backup

Your progress is saved on this device automatically. The code below takes a copy out and puts it back. Moving a whole list onto a device that has nothing on it yet is part of the subscription.

The code holds only this franchise. The link opens the tracker with your progress already filled in, good for showing someone where you're at. The image is a picture you can keep anywhere: scan the code on it with a phone, or drag the file back in below.

Every franchise you have touched, in one code.

Scan it with another device's camera, or paste the code in below. It never leaves your browser.

Drag a SagaList image here, or .

This reads the progress stored inside the picture, so nothing has to be retyped. If the image has been through a messaging app it may have been re-encoded and lost that: scan the code on it instead, or copy the code printed along the bottom.

Takes either kind of code. A single franchise code replaces that franchise, on any device. An everything code merges by default, so nothing you have ticked on this device is lost. Putting a whole list onto a device that has nothing on it yet is the part an account pays for.

Read only. This never changes what you have saved, and nothing leaves your browser. The code has to be their code for this same franchise: codes do not carry a name, so one from somewhere else may not be recognised as wrong.
