I did not like it at all at first, I liked how I met you mother so much, so when this came out it felt like a cheap copy
After watching season 1 and getting used to the characters it has started to grow on me
I rewatched season 1 and it felt very different once the resistance and comparison with how i met your mother stopped
I would recommend to really give it a shot and let the resistance fade away and then you will realise it is a good show
