How I Met Your Mother producer Craig Thomas has spilled some information about when we can expect the next slap, and what will happen with little Marvin Waitforit.

Speaking to TV Line, Thomas promises that, “There’s more slap action coming.” Further, he teases an ending to the series which perhaps fans were not expecting:

My personal opinion is if the very last moment of the entire series was a slap and you just cut to black, I’d be happy.

Further, expect to see a lot more of baby Marvin. Using its flashback/forward techniques, season 8 will see him at different stages of development:

We’ll see Marvin at age 2 when he blurts out his first word, then again at age 6 when he’s facing a crisis at home, and then finally at age 13 when he suffers his first heartbreak.

E! Online adds that, “We’ll be seeing how Ted, Barney and Robin influence his life.” Hopefully this will give us glimpses of Barney and Robin as a married couple, too!

Are you looking forward to seeing more of Marvin?
