How I Met Your Mother had an ending in mind when the series began. They even filmed part of it so the children wouldn't have aged.
And by the time that series wrapped up, that ending was awful. Didn't matter - Bays and Thomas stuck with their original ending and as far as I was concerned, made the entire show difficult to watch in re-runs.
Having the ending figured out in advance can be a really bad thing if you're unwilling to veer away from it.
