  "account": "Josh Radnor, who played Ted Mosby in How I Met Your Mother, has revealed that he is not close to any of his co-stars from the show today. The show concluded after nine seasons in 2014. Radnor made these remarks during a conversation on the Half the Picture podcast, where he discussed the tension he experienced with his co-stars. He shared that Neil Patrick Harris, who played Barney Stinson, had a conversation on the same podcast that led to a healing of their relationship. Harris admitted to feeling like Radnor's performance annoyed him, but Radnor clarified that he was indifferent to the heart of the character he portrayed. Radnor also mentioned that his frustration stemmed from feeling dismissed by Barney's character, and he expressed that their dynamic was a memorable part of the show. He noted that their differences helped shape the show's unique chemistry, despite any personal disagreements they might have had.",
