The Season 8 finale of CBS' hit TV sitcom, How I Met Your Mother gave fans the answer to the million-dollar question they've been asking for quite some time, as The Mother in the main title was finally revealed.

The actress donning the role was revealed to be Cristin Milioti, who was recently confirmed to be a series regular in the ninth and final season of the popular program.

HIMYM co-creator Carter Bays had explained that fans of the TV show will become "much better" acquainted with the Mother going into its upcoming installment, according to the Christian Post.

"There's a time jump of some sort in every episode of this show, so you can rest assured the premiere will be no different.  That being said, this next season in particular will feature some of the most non-linear episodes we've ever done," he said.

Other spoilers have suggested that they'll be two more slaps given out in the upcoming installment. Marshall had won a bet against Barney in Season 2 that allowed the former to slap the latter five times at any point in the future.  A majority of the slaps along with three additional have been given out.  However, there are two more owed.

Although no date has yet to be officially announced, CBS' How I Met Your Mother will be kicking off its ninth season at some point in September.  Be sure to keep checking back for more of the latest details on the show.
