Well, I think the writers meant anyone else that was really significant.
Yeah, I hated that Eric was a joke by the end. I also didn't like the garage sale ep with him and Cory. Not only did it have them go through with getting rid of all their childhood stuff, it had their rift unresolved. I really enjoyed his friendship with Jack though.

I liked Boy Meets World but I always thought Cory and Topanga were a rip off of Kevin and Winnie, so I could never fully commit to them. I think stopped watching when they were in college but a lot of my friends enjoyed the college years better. Watching it now, it is very good- kind of reminds me of Friends or something.

Yeah, I definitely preferred the first and college seasons to the middle school/highschool ones. Senior year was pretty good though.

I actually like the middle school/high school episodes over the college episodes.

While I enjoyed both, I like the Wonder Years more. To me, it stayed consistent in terms of the storylines and I think had more heart. I was bummed that it only lasted 6 seasons. I heard that many cast members wanted it to go longer. It had its similarities but I didn't find it as a rip off.

I could never really get into "The Wonder Years" for some reason, I didn't hate it, but didn't love it.

It kind of annoyed me how they kept changing when Cory and Topanga met, but when I watched commentary of a lot of the cast and Michael Jacobs on a few episodes and they joked around and acknowledged that it didn't bother me anymore for some reason. I actually really like listening to the cast commentary on " Boy Meets World", you can tell they still love being around each other.

Yeah, I love the kinship Ben and Danielle have been able to maintain over the years. They even celebrated their "wedding anniversary" this year, lol.

To me, it's ok to say that they've been together for 16 or so years...but it's not ideal to say this after it's been shown on screen that they've been with other people. In the 1st season, it shows that Cory was always making fun of Topanga. That's not very friendly.

They were always teasing Topanga in the first season so that is kind of odd to say they have been together for 16 years.

In the episode where Cory's little brother was born, I do like how they referenced Topanga's spiritual attitude that she had in S1. At least that was correct.

I loved that too, and they recreated the lipstick scene.

I love this scene. Too bad I couldn't find the later season lipstick scene.

I love Cory and Topanga.

Are you excited for Girl Meets World?

Melis

I'll give it a try? You?

Me too. I completely agree- if anything the Wonder Years had more heart than any other show. I believe once Kevin's voice changed and he entered high school- it wasn't the same show. Plus, it was on the same night and time as Beverly Hills 90210 which had to be tough. I think it could have gone on for one more year but it ended well- actually I would say the best series finale I've ever seen.
