When This Boy Meets World...

I grew up in the suburbs, although one could argue that East Irondequiot is the suburbs, but nonetheless, in my middle class caucasian family I grew up on ABC's TGIF. Who didn't? Every few years they would throw in a new show, like "My Teenage Guardian Angel" or something of that nature. But you could always count on the classics, Step by Step, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, but most importantly, Boy Meets World.

BMW was always my favorite sitcom, and besides some very funny cartoon shows (Southpark, Simpsons, Family Guy) it is probably my favorite show. This very deep, emotional, montage sheds some light on why I love this show so much...


Wow, that was pretty deep. Of course a show like BMW cannot be broken down into montage form, unless the montage lasted three-four years. As the years went on and the series ended things happened and I didn't catch any episodes for a long, long time. Eventually, like two years ago, my brother Shane and I were up late looking for some good TV on. As we ate our food and searched for channels we came across it. On the Disney Channel every night at 2:00 am it was on. Shane and I watched episodes for weeks straight, school night or not. After 11 or so we would just waste time waiting for it, then it would be on. I felt like I had to spread the good word, so I told my good friend Nathan Wirth (Dirt McGirt) about it and he replied, "I know, it's also on every day from 3-4 on ABC Family." I began watching the late night episode, and the power hour every day. Right when I got home from school I would turn it on. The tragedy struck as the jackass producers of ABC family changed the power hour with Full House, meaning BMW would air 2-3 while I was still at school. But almost everyday yet, Nathan, Shane, Josh Valletta, myself, and anyone else who wanted to watch, would watch it in the weightroom as we sat on bikes, and stood on treadmills.

The gist of this is, that Boy Meets World has positively effected my life. It gives everybody something to talk about at lunch the next day...
"Hey did you see what Cory did on the 2 am last night?"
"Yeah man I did, he took a shot of whiskey!"
"Yeah dude! Allan was pissed off!"
"Yeah man! Totally!"
I'm not entirely sure if anyone has ever said this, but because of Boy Meets World anything is possible. I love Boy Meets World. It is a timeless classic that is right up there in the Hall of Fame, and it shall forever be there. One beef is how as they got older the shows became more dramatic and less funny, Eric got dumber as he got older, and in the last episode Feeney wouldn't tell them that he loved them until they left. I would like to call him a heartless coward, but the good outweighs the bad. God bless you Feeney. Lastly here is a very short Youtube video. I found it funny, you might too. Enjoy...
