Cobie Smulders , her husband Taran Killam and their two daughters recently moved from New York to Los Angeles and for Smulders, packing up her things was like taking a trip down memory lane, particularly when it came to her starring years on How I Met Your Mother .

Ive been going through these old pictures of that time and its like, Whoa. That was a long time on that show, Smulders told HuffPost at Build Series .

Smulders spent nine years on the CBS sitcom, playing Robin Scherbatsky from 2005 to 2014. During that time, Robin and Ted Mosby (Josh Radnor) fall in love, break up, become friends, date, and even marry other people before reconnecting in the series finale. It was a whirlwind of a romance and one that has viewers torn to this day.

A lot of people liked it, a lot of people didnt. It was very split, Smulders said of the finale. But now that the network show has hit streaming services, some viewers just discovering the series for the first time are seeing it in a different light.

When Robin and Ted ended up together, it was weird for everyone because they had been on this journey for nine years, Smulders said. But then now, I meet people and its streaming and they watch it in four days like a crazy person because theres like 220 episodes or something and they dont have a problem with it because they see this whole journey happen. And that makes sense to me where the story is about Robin and Ted and how they eventually end up together.
