I am personally a big fan of shows/ books/whatever that are true to the characters. I was not deeply invested in HIMYM the last few years, and while I did like Barney/Robin I do think that Ted/Robin is a logical and sensical ending because that is just how things go sometimes. I don't believe that fans are owed ANYTHING by media. I see media as something you opt into and can opt out of at any time. You opting in doesn't give you a share in anything- you take what you can get from the showrunners.
Arguably my most fervent "current" fandom is Sherlock, and I find the fandom's insistance that they are owed more episodes or more frequent seasons to be nonsensical. Would I like more sherlock? Yes, but since I'm not footing the bill or dealing with logistics I'll take what I can get when it comes.
But the best part of the entire above episode in my mind? his delivery of the Legend- I'm not going to make you wait for it- dary line.
