Similarities between Friends and HIMYM

| |


In this post, I'm going to talk about a few striking similarities between the shows, or to be more precise, similarities between the characters on both shows.


Ross Geller and Ted Mosby: 'pursuers of love'


Ross Geller and Ted Mosby resemble a lot. Their ultimate goal is to find their soul mate and have a long and happy marriage. In both shows, this is a very important element. Both Ross and Ted had more serious relationships with one of their friends. Ross and Rachel, and Ted and Robin.

Joey Tribbiani and Barney Stinson: 'womanizers'



Joey Tribbiani and Barney Stinson are the womanizers. Unlike Ross and Ted, they're always looking for one-night stands, instead of a long-term relationship. But at one point, both Joey and Barney start to have strong feelings for one of their friends. 
And that brings us to a very striking similarity. Our 'pursuers of love', Ross and Ted, had a serious relationship with, respectively, Rachel and Robin. After a few seasons, Joey falls in love with Ross' ex-girlfriend Rachel, while Barney falls for Ted's ex, Robin.
Rachel Green and Robin Scherbatsky: 'career women'


If you'd ask me, Rachel and Robin are the most leading women in their shows. They both had a relationship with two of their friends. Now that's not very special, but both relationships play a huge part throughout the entire shows.
Their characters resemble as well. Both women are good-looking and know that. They're not afraid to use their looks to get what they want.Rachel goes to Paris to work for Louis Vuitton. I wouldn't be surprised if Robin moves far away when the show stops.

Chandler Bing & Monica Geller and Marshall Eriksen & Lily Aldrin



These are the couples on Friends and How I Met Your Mother. There are a few similarities between these couples and the individuals that form the couples. First of all, Chandler and Marshall. Both aren't very good with women, but their wife/girlfriend love them. They are both schooled and have a good job. Both Chandler and Marshall, are adding lots of humor and 'good vibes' to their respective shows.
