Reportedly connected to the original &#8220;How I Met&#8221; by the inclusion of MacLaren&#8217;s Pub, &#8220;Dad&#8221; is not expected to feature any characters from the current series.<\/p>\n<p>The pilot, which contrasts the original by having a woman tell her children the story of how she met their father, comes from Emily Spivey and &#8220;How I Met&#8221; creators Carter Bays and Craig Thomas.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;How I Met Your Mother,&#8221; now in its ninth season, wraps its run this May.<\/p>\n<p>*In other pilot news, Deadline reports that The CW has ordered a traditional pilot for its upcoming comic book series &#8220;The Flash.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The network was previously planning to launch the series, a loose spin-off from &#8220;Arrow,&#8221; with a backdoor pilot next spring.<\/p>\n<p>The character, played by Grant Gustin, still appears in at least two &#8220;Arrow&#8221; episodes this season, but because they and the character tested so well, the network decided to film a complete pilot to better flesh out his origin story.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[1048],"tags":[960,275,1213,1087,269,289,1214],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Pilot News: &quot;How I Met Your Dad&quot;
