10 Actresses That Would Have Made A Better Mother Than .. Whatever Her Name Is

For nine seasons of suspense, you would think the creators of How I Met Your Mother would do better than an actress who no ones ever seen before.

Zooey Deschanel

She's cute, she's funny - she would've been the perfect new (and forever) girl.

Lea Michele

She could've inspired a comeback song out of Robin Sparkles. They could've collaborated. The finale could've been a song and dance! It would've been Gleeful.

Emelia Clarke

If someone can look this hot in the times before shower heads were invented, imagine how great she'd look after a nine-year waiting period.

Alison Brie

We already know she's a versatile actress between Mad Men and Community - and the television conspiracy theorists would have had a ball connecting the dots of all her characters.

Kate Upton

We all know Ted has a pension for blondes - remember Stella? Well Kate is cuter, bustier and obviously very well traveled. Who else can say they've been to Antarctica in a bathing suit?!

Alyssa Milano

I don't think anyone would oppose to having this siren back on the silver screen. Plus, similarly to Ted, Phoebe Halliwell was always on a mission to find love. If television universes could collide, they'd definitely be living a Charmed life.

Isla Fisher

Isla's natural quirkiness and comedic delivery would make her the perfect 6th component to the gang's staple booth at MacLaren's.

Jennifer Aniston

This one needs no explanation.

Rachel Bilson

We already know she and Ted have chemistry; they dated before he dated the mother! For those that need a refresher in Ted Mosby's love life, Bilson played Cindy, a student he briefly dated who we find out is not the mother, but college roommates with the mother. Of course.

Cobie Smulders

Maybe they chose such an unknown face because secretly they know that we know that Robin is actually the mother. That makes sense, right? I mean, how could she not be the mother?! That's like saying Joey doesn't end up with Pacey or Rachel and Ross don't live happily ever after. I don't buy it.
