How I Met Your Mother's Reunion Comes via Shrinking Season 3

Twelve years after How I Met Your Mother ended, Jason Segel and Cobie Smulders have reunited on Shrinking, with Smulders' character Sofi returning in Season 3, Episode 2.

Sofi first appeared in Shrinking Season 2 for a single episode after Jimmy bought a car from her for Alice, and her brief chemistry with Jimmy left their future uncertain. In the new episode she turns up at Jimmy's doorstep claiming to bring a spare key to the car.

Their relationship in Shrinking contrasts with Segel and Smulders' How I Met Your Mother characters, Robin and Marshall, who would not have interacted romantically; here Sofi and Jimmy's rapport is notably closer.

The episode raises questions about whether Jimmy can move on from Tia and form a committed relationship; Episode 2 suggests his journey is far from over, alongside other notable developments in the series such as Michael J. Fox's return to TV in Shrinking.
