Carter Bays, who co-created and executive produces the show with his longtime pal and writing partner Craig Thomas (they met when Thomas became the drummer for Bays' band at Wesleyan University), is just back from a week in Hawaii. Spending time in paradise with his wife and two children was intended to help him from the stress and exhaustion of getting "HIMYM" over the finish line.
"I hadn't really done the Hawaii thing," he tells Zap2it, "and it was everything they said it would be."
Of all the twists and turns of the final season, which has played out as one very long weekend before Barney and Robin's wedding, and the finale, the end has always been in sight.
"I feel like the less we say about the finale, the better," says Bays. "This is the ending we conceived when we conceived the show 10 years ago. It's what we've been steadfastly writing towards ever since."
