Shark Bytes

This is one of those awesome teen shows that jumped the shark once the kids graduated and they went away to college. That happened with Sabrina the Teenage Witch.

Despite that, Boy Meets World was hilarious. . .especially the first few seasons. The writing was witty and the characters were all loveable.

This show jumped after they got out of junior high. Maybe I say this because their leaving junior high was about the time that I did and I just outgrew it, I don't know. Anyway, it was horrible after that and should have been put out of its misery.

Also Glenda, women can be abusive just as much as men can and they don't have the right to boss men around. If either parter is doing that it is time for a divorce.

Oh my godddd . This show brings back some serious memories i used to watch it all the time . Now its barely ever on anymore I miss bmw so much . I cried on ( i think it was ) the last episode . When theyre all leaving Mr. Feeny . And the kids were like " Tell us you love us, you know you love us blah blah " And he was like i love all my students the same . and when they left he said to himself "... i love them all " That had me bawling . haha .

With the exception of Cory and Mr. Feeney, MAJOR PROPS on the hair especially, Shawn, Eric, Tapanga, and Shawn's step-brother.

Over all, a good show. I thought when they got a little older and moved out of the house it lost a little of it's appeal, but I wouldn't say it jumped...and didn't the guys wear shirts to sleep? so unrealistic

I thought it jumped when Topanga became so fat she looked like one of the "Facts of Life" girls.

I'm a girl and I'm agreeing with Micheal. Glenda's comment was sexist towards men, and totally out of line. Shame on you.

This show just made me sick to death, but that's because when I was a kid it was on every darn channel and it was in the later seasons when it was all angst and drama and Corey marrying Topanga.

I have since watched some of the early episodes and was thoroughly delighted. It started out as a zany school-kid sitcom. I think they should have stopped at the high school graduation.
The final line of the graduating episode where the principal gives us the graduating class of 199X! Gave me this sense of closure and accomplishment on the part of the characters. That was diminished by the show going on and on. I mean, come on! Are we going to be following these people around for the rest of their lives?

Closing note: Minkus should have been in there more. Not a main character possibly. But I would have liked to see him remain a pain-in-the-butt know it all for Corey and Shawn in High school as he was in junior high. There was a fun dynamic there.

I missed how the show centered too much on Cory and Topanga and they added many characters while leaving out great ones like Mr.Turner, Minkus, Harley, Frankie, and Joey the Rat, one of my favorites.

sorry for below meant to say Eric was incompetent

also, I liked Mr.Turner and wanted him to stay. Also, they shouldn't have changed the character who played Morgan originally, she was hilarious.

This is, and always will be, one of my favorite tv shows.

However, I do believed it jumped the shark.

I found it really annoying how in season 7 they would only really focus on Corey and Topanga's problems and kind of ditch what made the show great in the first place, their friendships and scheming.

Also, I couldn't stand why they needed to make so incompetent. It was funny at times but they overdid themselves with that.

Never Jumped.

If anything, it got better and better.

It also has aged well, to me. I still watch it and love it just as much with every veiwing.

I laughed and cried with this show, and hope that someday the whole thing is put out on dvd.

once they got to college, it was game over. I know it had to happen sooner or later, but i reallt think the show should have ended when they graduated high school. There was no need to drag the show on for that long.

Now I do miss the show, and it was a great show. I'm just saying that once they got into college, they ran out of ideas for the show.

I think this show jumped the shark when it became ubiquitous on all of the cable channels. For a while it seemed like it was the only thing on Disney and ABC Family and it got annoying. I think all the characters - minues Topanga - developed quite naturally. Eric going from a cool, hip guy to a down and out, unfocused high school grad really isn't all that uncommon. He let everything go to his head and I think they had some episodes which really showed how he thought he was all that but really wasn't. I think after that he just got confused. Also, Cory went from the crazy best friend of Shawn to the whipped husband of Topanga. While there were times I wanted to kill Topanga for stepping all over Cory his personality didn't change much. Shawn was always stepping all over him before Topanga did.

I'd say it jumped completely when eric became an idoit I could deal with some of the other stuff but once that happend it just lost the spark. I mean really from intellegent but unmotivated to "just stupid" was horrible...but funny, still it wasn't good. Um an an comment made by Glenda below makes me mad, it was very sexist towards men (Surprise that's possible!)...Topanga's change also amade me angry. I'm not saying it's alright for a guy to be rude and/or abusive to women, but that doesn't make it alright for women to be rude and abusive to guys. Really just cause a guy has a little freedom doesn't make him abusive and equal rights from women not better rights. It's not right that Cory became a wimp who must fear Topanga! Really If I ever started dateing someone only to discover they are rude and demanding I think I'd break up with them not go on to marry them! I liked Topanga when she was wierd or as I liked to say had alot of fun quirks.

Liked this show, but I could not stand Topanga! She was always up in Cory's face over everything he did and told him what to do all the time. In all honesty, if she were my girlfriend, I'd want to cheat on her. She was just too damn bossy!
