On December 14, 2016, it was reported that Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger were set to write a new version of the previous spin-off's pilot, re-titled "How I Met Your Father", with Bays and Thomas serving as executive producers. On March 6, 2017, it was announced that following signing new contracts with 20th Century Fox Television that would see both Aptaker and Berger being promoted to executive producers and co-showrunners on "This Is Us" alongside Dan Fogelman, their completed spec script for "How I Met Your Father" would be placed on the back burner in light of their new duties. The idea was later completely abandoned.
