15 years later and I'm still crying to this. The 90's at its best.
Me too!!!! The way they did this promo was amazing especially at the end when the narrator personally said “after seven years..” This show when it aired was apart of and represented my childhood!!!!
I cant stop watching this, feels like the end of my childhood
Especially at the very end when the promo voiceover says “after seven years”. Feels like he personally is invested in it as well. Promos back then were so damn classy!
You can watch the rewatch podcast on TH-cam now.
Same
What a time to be alive in the US. The 90s had a good economy, great shows and TGIF.
One of the reasons I would love to jump in a time machine back to the 1990s.
Boy meets world were like friends for us when we were kids 🧡
All these years later and it’s still a great show
Wayyy better than Friends!
This hit me way harder than it should have. I'm practically shaking.
To me, when the final episode of BMW aired on Fri., May 5, 2000, that's when the original TGIF ended. Not when ABC aired their last ep of 'Sabrina' after this, but when BMW's final credits rolled, at, in my time zone in Canada, 9:59PM Atlantic Daylight Time that night.
There were the summer reruns, but when the finale aired again, on the night that ABC retired TGIF in I think late-August or early Sept. 2000, I watched it then too.
BMW had a lot of heart in it's creation and acting, and I consider myself humbled and honoured to have watched the show on it's original airing. =)
+Ragin' Ronic I was 11 years old when it originally aired (the series finale). As a 9 year old, I actually stumbled upon BMW when they originally aired the Lauren ski trip drama lol. So, I joined at a very young age at a late point in the series. However I remember that I tried giving TGIF as a whole a chance. Yet, truth be told, BMW was the only reason I bothered watching anything from TGIF. Once BMW was over, I was done with TGIF. Even when I didn't fully understand everything at such a young age, I loved this show so much and it stayed with me. As I have grown up, I have finally seen all the episodes, garnered so much more meaning from the episodes I did see, and continue to feel connected to the stories as if I had grown up with the cast.
Aw, yeah, that's how it kinda happened with me, except I'm 16, and I know recently it reran Boy Meets World on ABC Family again, but I just recently discovered the show like 10 or 11 months ago. When I realized that it had been QUITE a while since that show came out/aired it kinda broke my heart knowing that sure, I can go and look it up on youtube or something, or buy the series on DVD (which I did) but it just isn't the same, and the show is still super great and amazing and it obviously didn't take anything from my original opinion about the show, but there is just this sense of knowing that "its well been over, you can GO back, but you can't go BACK" ( if that makes sense) and there is always a humble feeling that you were actually apart of that and feel the connection. Like, for example: you can watch a video that someone took of a concert, but u feel more connected and more joy deep down if u were there and experiencing it your self. And like I said I still LOVE the show, its my favorite show out of every one out there, the acting is brilliant, the cast and cast chemistry is one in a million, I learned a lot from that show, the lessons are stuff I take with me every day, I LOVE it, but there is still a sad feeling that I wasn't able to be a kid growing up with it and experiencing it MYSELF.
Here's a funny stat, Sarah...in a Season 1 ep of the show(1993-1994), Cory was up late one night with his dad watching a Phillies game. The Philadelphia Phillies reached the World Series in 1993, as the MLB National League Champions.
I would have woven that into the narrative of an ep of BMW like this.
Cory keeps supporting the Phillies, in the midst of Stuart Minkus being involved in a cross-border student exchange program with someone from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, the home city of the Toronto Blue Jays.
Cory and that Canadian student(no, Canada's social stereotypes would not be placed into the script of the episode...both Cory and that student would be on a level playing field creatively) would engage in a bet on the 1993 World Series between the Phillies and Blue Jays.
That Canadian kid would be allowed into the Matthews household, with Mr. Feeny there too, watching the game(on 2 TVs, with one being allowed to show the CTV Sports Canadian feed side by side with the CBS Sports U.S. feed). We go to Game 6, from Oct. 23, 1993, a Saturday night.
Eventually, Cory and the Canadian kid would both see, together, Joe Carter of the Blue Jays hit the championship-winning home run, setting off the SkyDome crowd in Toronto. The Canadian kid then goes to his temp U.S. home to rest, smile on his face after going crazy in the Matthews home.
When the 2 would see each other again, the Canadian kid says to Cory 'Well, I've won the bet, Cory. It's time for you to fulfill your end of the deal. It's a 2-parter.....first, (unveils a Blue Jays white home jersey with 'CARTER 29' on it) you, Cory, need to put this on.' Cory complies, but reluctantly, with the Canadian then saying 'Now, for Part 2....a barber whom I spoke with will, in the gym, shave off the hair needed to leave a Canadian maple leaf behind.'.
Cory tries to bail at that point, but Shawn halts him, and says that Cory shouldn't welch out on a wager, as odd as it may be. Cory then, again reluctantly, complies, and accepts the haircut.
However, that would be the 1st point in the series where Cory and Shawn's friendship begins it's build.
I'd also have the Canadian kid make a $100 donation to a charity of Shawn's choice, as thanks to him for having Cory accept that small fate.
Such an episode would also have been a joint co-production between ABC, Michael Jacobs Productions, Touchstone Television, Buena Vista Television, and from Canada, the Robert Essery Organization and the CTV Television Network, as a special cross-border TV event.
It might be convoluted, but I'd think it'dve been fun to try. =P
Lol yes, that would be quite an episode! Lol that's smart how you planned that out haha
i was like 7 when I first watched this show in '93. It used to come on right after Family Matters. Great time to be a kid during the 90s
Not only was I a huge Boy Meets World fan back then (and still am) but I also graduated high school around this same time (Class of 2000) so...
I couldn't escape this damn song! 😂
Zero dislikes. That shows how loved this show was
I was a hormonal 15 yr. old when the finale aired, and cried like a baby. I have the whole series on DVD now
Teal Chastain so do I
Same
One of the best sitcoms.......still miss it to this very day. Mr. Feeny saying class dismissed was super sad.
Now Pod Meets World give you behind the scenes of The Show thought the eyes of the cast who were there
Less than a month from now is the 15th year anniversary of the series finale. And I'm watching this on a Friday night when there used to be TGIF!
20-year anniversary coming up this year. 🙊😱
Omg Vitamin C 'Graduation' playing on the background ❤️😭
I watched series finale in TH-cam style, I was sad this show ended
I love pod meets world pod
I was 12 when this first aired, remember it very well. Can’t believe it’s been 22 years. Even back then, at the beginning of that season, I had a feeling it would likely be the last…with the cast aging into adulthood, it just seemed like the right time for it to end.
The show definitely ran its course. I bought all the seasons on Amazon though so I can watch them forever.
I just finished season 7 and thought it was still pretty good for a show on it's final season. They probably left at the right time all things considered. Boy Meets World outlived most of it's 90s era generation, they did very good actually living to see 2000. This show was perfect for the 90s but it probably would've faded out pretty quickly if they stayed much later into the 2000s.
I remember having the same feeling, Debra. The writing was JUST starting to get a little dry. They made the most of the last year, but you could tell they were starting to run out of ideas. I don't feel they overstayed their welcome by any means, but absolutely agree they chose to go at the right time. I recall reading in TV Guide at the time that ABC was skeptical of a seventh season as well, initially only ordering 13 episodes, renewing the back nine only after the wedding episode garnered good ratings. They had actually prepared a mid-season version of the series finale in case of cancellation, a two-parter originally called "The War" and "The Peace" (Part Two was later renamed "Seven the Hard Way"). That was the episode where they all got into a fight and stopped talking to each other, when Mr. Feeny and Eric find a way to bring them back together. The last line of the show would have even been the same..."Class Dismissed".
Oh my gosh i cried and got chills just watching this promo.....
Shawn was like my idol when I used to watch this show.. Even now I still love all the characters and its still an awesome show
Awww! 😭 i remember i missed the whole first half of the episode cause i had to go to my friends house that day smh. And also this was the year we graduated jhs, and that fricken Vitamin C song was everywhere lol
The only show that makes you laugh and cry and learn a valuable life lesson is 22 minutes!!
Soo damn true
Where Family Matters was the beginning of TGIF, Boy Meets World was the final curtain call for it.
You sure? I thought it was Full House or Perfect Strangers. My belief is Boy Meets World didn't want to go to another network if a 8th season was approved. But I heard TGIF's ratings were declining that year and ABC was going to get rid of it.
@@peterblue2708 TGIF began on ABC September 22, 1989, which also happened to be the series premiere episode of Family Matters and TGIF ended May 5, 2000, which was the series finale of Boy Meets World. I was referencing the series premiere date of Family Matters and the series finale date of Boy Meets World because that’s the timeline of the TGIF lineup.
@@ezaye1991 You know as much as I did like Boy Meets World I felt like creator Michael Jacobs gave up Dinosaurs for Boy Meets World.
@@peterblue2708 he most likely did and can you blame him lol
@@DoubleDash28 Dinosaurs could've went on another season or 2
WHY WOULD TH-cam PUT THIS IN MY RECOMMENDED LIST? MY EMOTIONS CAN'T HANDLE THIS.
oh man i remembered i was crying so hard when it ended that my friends looked at me funny thinking "OMG whats wrong with you" but was so happy got to watch reruns til my first year of college. man remembered the finale was my end of the year of my first year of HIGH SCHOOL man!
I cnt believe this made me cry in 2012! I love boy meets world! I wish it was still on.. i demand a reunion with EVERYONE!! :D..lol
Even though I was born in 2002, I watch Boy Meets World. Because, I was watching Disney Channel, and I saw that Girl Meets World was coming up. Then, I saw Ben and Danielle say there was going to be Boy Meets World Week. So I did some research and got into the show. Over my summer, I watched ALL 158 EPISODES of Boy Meets World. So, you can ask me any question about it, and I might get it right.
Here's a big one: Was the marriage scene in this promo just a dream?
hell nah
How u feel about Shawn and Angela not getting married🥲
Omg this is the way I found about BMW, and I was born in 2000, which was when the final season took place. And I became obsessed with it! It's nice to see people from my generation that feel the same way about this lovely and heart-warming show. The best show ever, and there isn't any show like this now.
This has me in tears
ABC's TGIF block (1989-2000) began to die in the fall of 1997: stemming from a combination of aging sitcoms like Family Matters and Step by Step moving to CBS (who started - and ended - their own family-friendly Friday night sitcom line-up in 1997-98 called "The Block Party"), the oversaturation of supernatural/magic type shows (Sabrina the Teenage Witch and new series You Wish and Teen Angel, the latter of which both lasted only one season), the failure of Two of a Kind (which was the last sitcom produced by the previously reliable Miller-Boyett group) starring the Olsen twins the following year. Ultimately, the ending of Boy Meets World after seven seasons and Sabrina, The Teenage Witch moving to The WB after the 1999-2000 season.
ABC would bring back the TGIF brand for the 2003-05 & 2018-19 seasons, but it never met the same success it had before.
I cried like a baby I’m 43 now and it still gets me
Epic man. Awesome show.
It still hard to watch this. I've watched the final episode earlier today and i was still crying. I'm glad they did Girl Meets World. It was good but not as good than BMW.
Best show ever made!!! I still watch it
Watching this gives me the goosebumps!
GREAT ORIGINAL SERIES FINAL PROMO ON ABC TGIF WITH BOY MEETS WORLD !!!
I haven't watched this show in continuity during my childhood. However this year I have been given a chance to watch the show from the very beginning to the end. As of right now I just watched Angela's Ashes and I had to come back here to watch this promo before I watch the series finale
Thank God for girl meets world this summer 2014
@UrkManRocks Yep, that was the final night of new programming on the "original TGIF", although they did attempt to recreate it in 2003 with shows like "Hope & Faith", "George Lopez", and "8 Simple Rules", but that was a big franchise failure, and those shows were all either cancelled or returned to their original timeslots during the week. This was also the night that ABC's Series Finale of "Sabrina, The Teenage Witch" aired, as it moved to The WB the following season, keeping its Friday time!
This was the last ABC series, whether it be sitcom or drama, with a predominately teenaged cast of characters until the mystery thriller show _Riverdale_ premiered on the Alphabet in January 2017.
ABC's TGIF lineup for Friday May 5, 2000 (series finale of TGIF's first-run).
8pm - Boy Meets World (series finale: Brave New World - Part 1 & 2)
9pm - Sabrina (season 4 finale & ABC series finale: The End of an Era)
9:30pm - Sabrina (repeat)
10pm - 20/20
I cry every time. 😓
me too ( I have the whole series on dvd) and I cried at the end ( although I was younger)
I have not finished seeing whole series style, I still have yet to see seasons one and two
The beginning of the end for TGIF is when both Family Matters and Step By Step left the network in 1997. Two of these top-rated legacy shows leaving TGIF initiated a sharp ratings decline for the lineup. To make matters worse CBS signed contacts to air new episodes of both these shows for the 1997-98 TV season. In the same time-slots ABC had them in the prior season. Between 1997 and 1998 the ratings on ABC Friday nights were almost cut in half due to audience fracture with CBS.
That's sad I was about to cry when they say goodbye. But the good news Girl meets world in 2014. Yeah baby yeah!!
girl meets world sucks compared to boy meets world tbh
Vitamin c graduation
They should have saved Mr Feenys line for people who watched the show, not the bumper promo. What a great show.
I agree. To be fair, I didn't know that would be the last line of the show. How could anyone know?
@@THERobertL2000 But it was promoted as last show so not that hard to fig.
Thx for posing this! I really appreciate it!
I seen 7th seasons of Boy Meets World on Disney+.
Boy Meets World reran on Disney Channel for several years, after it's network run on ABC's TGIF ended.
Yep and on ABC Family.
Every time I get close to the epp *Angela's ashes* I started feeling sad, cause I know it's the being of the end. =(...And by the time I get to the finale 2 epp, yepp...I'm crying "Like a fool" lol
i wish i have this promo, dont know why but i did manage to get the last two episodes recorded back when they were new on tape. Thanks for posting this.
Yes, that is true. 'Sabrina' jumped to The WB the following fall, and with both of their final successful Friday hits gone, they decided to add more "adult" programming to the night in the fall, like "Norm" and "Two Guys, A Girl, and a Pizza Place", among new offerings. The night was not a success with those shows, so they were all either cancelled or moved to other nights. In 2003, TGIF returned with 'George Lopez', 'Hope & Faith', and 8 Simple Rules', but was eventually dropped again.
I’m not crying you are
Thumbs up for a Boy Meets World reunion!
V/O work done by Andy Geller❗️❗️
Girl meets world won't be the same because Disney channel is too censored.
THANK YOU! I actually like the show & honestly didn't grow in the 90s but, I still watched it growing up & its stuipd for Disney to say: "Girl meets world for another generation." I sorta like the show but, at the same time its cornbally & only watch cuz of Ben & Topanga if they weren't on there it'd be definitely cornbally.
Never jump to conclusions. GMW has had almost a full season, and while it doesn't match the exact same charm, it's still pretty enjoyable.
cychick09olney Girl Meets World is childish, but so was Boy Meets world in the first 2 seasons.
GMW lasted 3 seasons, which for a spinoff/ revival show, is not too shabby.
i cried watching this : (
My Central Time 8/7C in Birmingham, Alabama's ABC affiliate ABC 33/40.
I could go even further than that. Starting in 1992 ABC started turning TGIF from a family to a kiddie lineup. Cancelling a highly-rated show like Perfect Strangers for Baby Talk and Dinosaurs. It didn't help matters that by 1996 TGIF's highest rated show was started to get a wee bit old and out of ideas. Transforming from a show about a Middle Class family in Chicago to Urkel's sci-fi adventures.
Say goodbye to boy meets world and say helllo to girl meets world!! IM EXCITED!
NEVER!!!!
cant believe its already 12 whole years since this commercial aired! jesus christ!
Now I am crying...
Michael Jacobs has signed a deal with Disney to bring Boy Meets World back with a "Next Generation"-style show with Cory and Topanga's child. At the time of this posting, Ben Savage and Danielle Fishel are in talks to reprise their characters.
Here, here!! I agree ^_^....We all demand a reunion movie!! lol
i showed this my lil sis and she thinks Cory and Topanga gets married in the on finale episode. She is only on season 5. We are years apart. She didn't grow up with this show like me. I never told her how it ends and she is confused. I only showed her this because she wants to know how it ends. She is going to hate me when she cries like i did at the end, No matter how many times i watch this i cry every time.
Aw, I'm basically doing what your sis did, I didn't grow up with the show, I still watch it, its my favorite tv show of all time, and I love it, its truly one of a kind. I love it and I cry every single time too
she loves this show and since we are 12 years apart we had nothing in common but hanks to this show we are close as ever
Aw, yeah, I love it, since this was 2 years ago that she watched it, Im sure she finished it already, how did she react to Topanga proposing at the end of season 5 then? Haha
She didn;t really have a reaction but she did love their wedding. She said she didn't expect anything different, and as a plus she hates girl meets world.
Yeah! Same! I have a love hate relationship with GMW, or...lemme put it this way, I only like it because it has the Boy Meets World characters in it..so I love that..but I hate the second generation like Riley and Maya and Lucas and all them...Disney has failed a legend tv show
I like that even tho Angela was not in the finale, *even if fans would have loved it if Shawn& Angela would've gotten engaged! =(* it's nice she was in the promo.
I wish the new show still followed Cory, dealing with he & Topanga's growing family. Along with his Bro Eric & Bff Shawn. That way they can still have his daughter be apart of the show, & have new characters. But keep the ties with the original characters. Like (Jack, Amy, Alan, Morgan, Angela, Mr.Feeny, Josh) That would be ideal!!
This is from Pittsburgh! I live in Pittsburgh!
No it’s not, Boy Meets World is in Philly 🦅
Chills.....
Top 15 TV show finale promo's (Through the years) for Mlp's 9th and final season

I just heard. Omg!! I'm so excited!! I just hope Shawn and Eric will be in it. And I hope we will find out what happen after that year was up for Shawn and Angela. ^_^ (Crosses fingers)

For the 30th anniversary of Boy Meets World from 1993 2023
Watch the last one sad loved this show still catch it on abc in the mornings and still laugh my ass off especially at erick
Do you have a copy of the original ABC airing of the finale?
Not gonna lie i cried when i seen this i was 11 when this aired those were good times
@87murph good idea, of course this was in 2001 when it aired these episodes :)
Girl meets world in 2014 in January 2014
Now there's going to be a spin off :)
Where i can get that theme of last episode it makes me cry.
good one.
Its called the graduation song.
But who performed it? 😐
Vitamin C
What has everyone from the series been up to? I think Danielle Fishel hosted a show on Style called The Dish i think and Will is doing voice work. Is the actor who played Mr. Feeny retired? Havent seen him for awhile. What about Ben Savage?
@KyleCHaight Yup i just read that online too! Please let this happen because i think abc could do well with GMW, Last Man Standing and Malibu Country as the new TGIF.
TGIF on ABC has Officially DIED because Sabrina is moving to The WB
GUESS WHAT TGIF ITS BACK
@neslink You mean 2000.
they should of went to a 8th season
Maybe not.
HEY GET READY TO SEE CORY AND TOPANGA AGAIN!! IN GIRL MEETS WORLD!!!
sucks how old this was.
=(
The last good TGIF show.
Why is there no reunion movie? I demand a made for TV movie!
I remember the rumor that the show was going to continue on CBS as Brave New World. Never happened so I guess it was just a rumor. I wouldnt mind seeing a reunion special though.
Yeah it was always intended to end at brave new world. The ratings for BMW were at its highest but it was rider and Ben who insisted it end. They had just gotten accepted to college and felt it was time to get on with their lives.
☹️
They shouldnt have spoiled Feenys last line in the promo
who knows what song playes in the backround?
That is Vitamin C's "Graduation (Friends Forever)".
I don't remember this promo using that shitty ass fake nostalgia song. I thought it was better.
Or "Always Broadcasting Crap"
This is magical seeing this. Omg.... :)
