Josh Radnor Is ‘Not Even a Little Bit’ Close to His ‘How I Met Your Mother’ Co-Stars: ‘You Just Go Out and Live Your Life’

Variety • 8/20/2026

Summary

Josh Radnor, known for his role as Ted Mosby on the CBS sitcom "How I Met Your Mother," has revealed that he is “not even a little bit” close to his co-stars from the show. This statement was made during a recent appearance on the "Half the Picture" podcast, where Radnor responded to a question about his relationship with his former castmates. His comments come 12 years after the series concluded its nine-season run, during which Radnor and his co-stars filmed a total of 208 episodes. Despite the lack of ongoing relationships with his co-stars, Radnor expressed that he still holds affection for them. He stated, “I have love for all these people,” indicating that while he may not maintain close ties with them, he values the time they spent together during the show's production. This sentiment reflects a common experience in the entertainment industry, where relationships formed during long-term projects can often be transient. Radnor's comments highlight the dynamics of friendships in Hollywood, particularly those that may not endure after a project ends. The cast of "How I Met Your Mother" shared significant experiences throughout the series, which has left a lasting impact on both the audience and the actors involved. However, it appears that those connections did not extend beyond the conclusion of the show, resonating with fans who have followed the cast's careers since the series ended.
