They've been going strong for nine years now, but now it's time to say good-bye to the cast of How I Met Your Mother.

And perhaps, if rumors hold true, good-bye particularly to one key character who has been central to the show's storyline for the entirety of its existence.

Following a recent episode, fans have speculated that Cristin Milioti's character of The Mother has already been dead for the entirety of the series, as Ted Mosby narrates his life story to their children.

The How I Met Your Mother cast appeared at a panel at PaleyFest on Saturday night to answer questions about the series' upcoming farewell finale.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, panel moderator and cast member Wayne Brady probed producers about the highly speculated death.

Us Magazine reported that showrunner Carter Bays managed to skirt around the hot topic.

'We're wildly excited about the finale and obviously we can't say anything...It's beautiful,' Bays responded vaguely.

'I think one of the great things about How I Met Your Mother is that it's surprising,' co-creator Craig Thomas pitched in, according to The Hollywood Reporter. 'It does really weird things sometimes.'

Milioti addressed the morbid rumors in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter in March.

'That's insane,' Milioti told the publication when prompted about the possible death.

'There are some crazy conspiracy theories, which really makes me love the fans more... That is so crazy,' the Wolf Of Wall Street actress added.

The one hour season finale of How I Met Your Mother is slated to air on CBS on March 31, inevitably putting an end to the hot speculation.

It's amazing how they found someone who looks so much like Robyn and lily. Ted belongs with Robyn in many ways. Let's see how this plays out rather than spoiling it for us. After all this season has been terrible.
