Josh Radnor: How I Met Your Mother Cast Has Drifted Apart Over Time
Josh Radnor says the HIMYM cast—including Neil Patrick Harris, Jason Segel, Cobie Smulders, Alyson Hannigan—are “not even a little bit” close anymore, about 12 years after the show ended. He compared their dynamics to college: an intense period together that gradually dispersed as everyone pursued new lives, with occasional reconnections at weddings or on podcasts. He emphasizes the distance isn’t a feud, just life moving on, and reflects on the challenges and rapid fame the show brought. Fans often imagine a closer, constant reunion, but Radnor portrays a more natural drift among the group.
