Don't listen to the negative reviews
... View MoreI saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.
... View MoreA lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
... View MoreTrue to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
... View MoreThis show will always have a special place in my heart! The characters and the realness and humor in this show make it a classic. I love Cory and Topanga together and I love Shawn and Eric and all of the characters. This show talked about real life events and issues and it tackled some hard things. This show talked about faith and death and for a kids show to do that is amazing!!! :) I believe so many of the characters had such chemistry and has such fun with their characters. My favorite season will always be 7. I loved how we go to see all the characters that we grew up with in college and dealing with adult things. I will always love this show and I am so glad that it was a show that wasn't afraid to talk about real life issues.
... View MoreSeason 1 was very good...good writing,good jokes,good plots and while there were "Fake Morals" every episode they didn't feel forced or shoved down your throatFast forward to Season 2 and it turns into crap when they decide to show them "struggling"(and i put that term lightly) through High School...it's so over-dramatic that it's annoying to watch From Season 2 to Season like...4-5 are the High School Years...and boy are they annoying for the reason I put above...though the show is still funny...but you notice that Eric and Mr.Finney turn into Practically Comic-Relief Characters during these seasons and eventually all the laughs you'll get will be out of these 2(especially Eric who's pretty much the salvage of this idiotic show and if it wasn't for him I wouldn't have watched it till the end)Don't get me started in "The College Years"...Season 6-7...is some of the most atrocious TV I've ever seen...it's just painful to watchWhy the hell didn't they stick with the Season 1 formula? That was the only great season.What were they thinking?Overall a 5/10 for the Excellent First Season and for the show still staying consistently funny uptill Season 5(mostly cuz of Eric and Feeny)I would not recommend this show to Kids...it has stupid drama which kids don't like,it has sexual references,it's mean-spirited and it's just totally not appropriate for ChildrenWatch The Adventures of Pete and Pete instead
... View MoreI did not originally get on the Boy Meets World train. The show began well before I began watching normal circulated television. I didn't actually begin watching until the show began its circulation on Disney Channel. I remember watching the show as a kid and loving it from the very beginning. When the show was finally released on DVD after being off the air for quite some time, to say I was elated would be an understatement. After the long hiatus between season 3 and season 4 DVD releases, the show stayed in the back of my mind, but I did not dwell on many of the life lessons that it taught. Having just bought and watched the 4th season, I now understand the gravity that this show holds. When one looks at the television of the 1990s, many will see constant pop culture references and situations and styles that will not matter in the next 20 years. Boy Meets World does not follow this trend. Yes, like every other show it has its moments with references like MTV, Scream, and Jennifer Love Hewitt, but the entire show holds true today as it did back in the 1990s. Being significantly older now than my original viewing, the tougher, more mature themes and ideas that were present in the show hold more weight to me. There were many adult themes that I did not grasp as a child. This show helps both the young and old. The constant theme of the show: growing up from childhood to adulthood and the changes that occur not only in one's life, but to ones character is a theme that I only now have a great appreciation for. Through high school and college, we find out who we are and this show explains the good and the bad. Everyone experiences moments with friends. Everyone experiences heartbreak with the love of your life or disappointments with your friends. This show even goes as far to show the good and bad of parenting, something the other shows of the TGIF lineup on ABC didn't do. This show gets better with age. Both the age of the show and the age of the person watching the show. I hope to be able to watch the DVDs with my children and be able to , once again find more meaning in the episodes than I do now.
... View MoreThis was an amazing show, though it was really more like three shows, I say this because the show changed so much over its run. Luckily the show was great in all of its incarnations but if you watch an episode from the first season and then one from the seventh it can be a little hard to believe that it's actually the same TV show. For example, when the show began Cory and Topanga had clearly not been in love with each forever and Cory dated many other girls, but somehow during the show's run their life story was rewritten so that they had always loved each other. And Shawn went from being a trouble-maker to a ladies' man to a poetic lost soul. Eric went from being a typical older brother to a guy at a crosswords in life and unsure of what to do with himself to an insane person. Topanga started out as a weird new-ager and then became normal. Morgan mysteriously disappeared for a while. And the show had a lot of character changes. From the earliest incarnation with Minkus to the second with Mr. Turner, Harley, Frankie, and Joey to the third with Rachel, Angela, and Jack. And the show also became more grown-up and mature as it went along. But in the end the show was so great that one doesn't mind all the continuity problems and character changes and tone changes in the show. The show was always good in every one of its incarnations.
