10 Reasons Why "Boy Meets World" Is My Favorite Sitcom

Well, at least from the 90's.

I specifically watching all of the reruns of "Boy Meets World" in middle school. Two would be played each morning and I never really seemed to get enough of them. I eventually set out to buy all of the seasons and binged watched every season in one summer. That was the first T.V. show that I had ever binge-watched. With Disney Plus, I plan on going back and rewatching them all just to reminisce about my and Cory's childhood. You should too!

The Theme Song

I'll admit, as the seasons progress the theme song gets better. However, they all check the marks in 90's sitcom theme songs. With an upbeat instrumental song and friends that are all smiling and enjoying their lives, how much better could it get?

Cory Matthews

Cory is the main character in the show. He is charismatic and so badly wants to become an adult. As he grows older, he realizes that life isn't as easy as it seems to be and meets some great people along the way.

Shawn Hunter

Shawn is Cory's best friend and always seems to be there for him no matter what. He too learns valuable lessons about life and really comes into his own as the show progresses.

Topanga Lawerence

She is really weird in the first season, but slowly becomes friends with both Cory and Shawn. She even becomes Cory's love interest.

Eric Matthews

Cory's older, comedic brother. Eric is probably my favorite character from the show because he reminds me of Joey from "Friends." He might not seem serious, but offers some serious life advice to Cory throughout the show.

Mr. Feeny

Mr. Feeny. What's not to love about him? He basically watched Cory, Shawn, and Topanga grow up. He even shows up in "Girl Meets World." He was blunt, but also still cared about them. He reminds me of a few teachers that I had in middle and high school.

The Life Lessons

Yeah, life is tough. That's the entire point of the show. Cory and his friends face challenges along the way and have to learn how to deal with them. Even if it is getting detention on a Friday when you really should be watching the Phillies.

Growing Up

"Boy Meets World" shows how an 11 year-old Cory grows into his own and discovers life for himself. He goes from thinking that Topanga is weird to marrying her. He came full circle and matured.

The Humor

The humor is impeccable. Life lessons can be tough to learn, but when humor is involved, who can't laugh.

The Spin-Off

media.giphy.com

Yes, Cory and Topanga marry each other and have children. Disney Channel decided to give the show a reboot. "Girl Meets World" is all about how Cory's daughter comes of age and includes characters from the original. It's cute, but not as good as "Boy Meets World."

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
