I did hunt around for this, and couldn't see any topics: apologies if there already has been.
Anyway! I was reading yesterday that Danielle Fishel was arrested recently for DUI, and it got me thinking about how awesome Boy Meets World was. There's loads and loads on youtube, but some of the highlights that I discovered:
Lots of best bits, with consistently brilliant Eric moments. Eric, as I'm sure you'll remember, was the funniest (and hottest) character in it.
So before Danielle Fishel was an irresponsible driver, she was adorable as Topanga. Cory and Topanga do karaoke - adorably.
The meta-tastic Halloween episode.
Shawn: The locked door, the scary janitor, the bloody warning... Cory: And? Shawn: Our soon to be first victim. Unknown Extra: Me? Why me? Cory: Well Kenny, it's certainly not going to be any of us.
Eric Hollywood - arguably the best episode. Hollywood Cory's rant at 7.30 proves that it was a much smarter show than people gave it credit for.
Some great clips that include The Feeny Call and the True Love Forever that is Cory/Shawn.
Amazing!

That WARRRR! karaoke scene is perhaps my favourite scene from a 90s american kiddy sitcom ever. Ace.
I did love this show. I think I must have seen all of them when I was addicted to the disney channel in the late nineties (see also Home Improvement and Honey I Shrunk The Kids: The TV Show). Eric was fit, as was Shawn towards the end. Topanga was rubbish, bless her.
I also loved it when they went on a trip to a tv studio and there was a classroom set which was pretty much exactly the same as My Feeny's yet he got all angry about the amount of chairs there were and how nobody would ever believe in such a small class.

Man, I loved this. Mainly for Eric and his lovely eyebrows. There was an episode where he was stalking Topanga (i think) and got stuck in a sofa which still makes me giggle helplessly when I think of it.
Despite being a bit of a raving misogynist who generally doesn't like female characters, I also loved pre-naughty driving Topanga. She didn't seem to be like a typical bimbo you got in California Dreams etc, but seemed tough and intelligent, and was quite stunning despite not being the skinniest girl on tv.

I think I was just too old for this- i found it really annoying- especially the name Topanga- it makes me shudder even typing it.

I loved it - and had an inappropriate crush on Shaun.

I love how DUIs seem to be the fashion accessory right now in Hollywood - you're no one until you've got one. (Admittedly in most cases, even when you've got one, you're still no one.)
I remember really enjoying the later series when it got shown during school/university holidays in the mornings, and Eric was bumming Joey Lawrence's brother. Or so it looked like.
Didn't Danielle Fishel do a chat show with Lance Bass about what it was like to be his beard, or am I confusing her with someone else?

I think I used to love this, did the headmaster live next door as well. I remember it more when they went to college and everyone got inexplicably hot and Matthew Lawrence turned up.
