There's a reason why scenes like this are so powerful. It's one thing to tell kids "don't drink, don't smoke, don't do drugs." But it's another thing to show them the damage drugs and alcohol can do.
TRUE
Yes
I always smoked weed as a kid passed up the beers and pills never got into trouble and live a good life now as a financial advisor. It’s a shame alcohol is so accpeted
@@Jake-vc1ry weed is a medicine not a drug like alcohol.
@@adrv5721 Yes exactly my point weed gives no euphoria absolutely no withdrawls and has benefits. Alochol is a highly addictive widely sold drug that takes a 100,000 victims per year it’s insane
“I don’t like that you drink. Call me when you don’t.” I love that line.
Me too. And that he shoved her speaks volumes.
The look on her face before she walks out, that knocked some clarity in his head.
Evanescence wrote the script for this episode.
The best ultimatum ever
Simple and powerful. No need to degrade him and cause more damage through telling everything you don't like about him etc. Re tell this story today you have the woman tell the man off and degrade him and say every little thing you don't like about him. All of the females be praising her because "he tried her" whatever that means.
I liked that when Shawn pushed Angela, Jack immediately stepped forward slightly. You get the impression that he’s seen this before and is ready to protect her if he needs to
What a great eye!
He did see this before because their father used to treat his mom badly when he would drink. Its why their relationship never worked out.
My house growing up with an abusive drunk
You nailed it. Jack was about whoop dat ass
@@goodjobspyda5953Jack should have beat his ass for putting his hands on a female
The writers knew how good Rider Strong was and gave him "very special episodes" like 5 times a season. Shawn's trauma was through the roof
Right?! He was definitely my favorite on the show.
@@yespls4184 same here
He has said that he requested very early on to be given stories he would consider “interesting”. IIRC, I think he said he worried about becoming bored with being on the show without being given material like this. 😄
Oh yeah, 100%
I wish Rider had acted in more things before he decided to go into directing full time but I respect his decision to step back from acting
@@yespls4184 Same, because I loved how much more complex of a person Shawn was than Cory
Sean never knew how lucky he was having friends like that
true matt c
He would have most likely ended up in juvenile hall if he didn’t have Cory in his life.
@@dangurney1042 true
Shawn*
@@kaci1285 Mr hunter
This was a powerful scene on so many levels, but a detail that I think gets lost is that Angela didn't persist in saying "we'll talk about this" or "you'll get better" after Shawn pushed her. She didn't try to excuse it or placate him. She told him he was responsible for himself and left. There are a lot of people not able to do that in reality. Showing that it's possible here sends such a strong message.
Sometimes leaving hits home with the abusive drunkie harder than staying...they see their error pushes people away
Yeah it was showing how alcoholism can affect those who drink and people they deal with. And drinking along with domestic violence go hand in hand. Jack says his mom left his dad cause he was an abusive alcoholic toward his mom Shawn was beginning that cycle
That is a real woman not a punks ass
She violated him by putting her hands on him.
weird laughtrack too
This episode went from Corey being depressed to Corey starting to drink to Corey and Shawn drinking to Shawn becoming a raging alcoholic in 22 minutes. Must have been a wild week for them
Well, it's a genetic predisposition for Shawn.
What episode??
@@makenziecoffin9959 It's S5 Episode 18
😂
"Man.......I had a weekend, first I got plastered, then I shoved my GF, then went to Mexico and saw a donkey show."
4:25 Rider Strong is an incredible actor. Just instantly conveys that feeling where you know how badly you fucked up
you could say he's a strong actor
@@victorsmith6511 Zinger
shawn dad and jack mom use to date
His face after he pushed her 🥺
Fucked up how didn't ask the same question or even felt sorry for attacking his own Brother 😒
This episode was done really well man. Because it wasn't the normal trope of the 'don't drink, it's bad', it was way more meaningful.
I give the show credit for that. The problem I've found with older shows when it comes to drinking is this weird assumption that one drink would just spiral into alcoholism without any reason for the addiction in the first place.
I believed that as a kid and would try to warn friends but I ended up looking like an asshole then
For kids it hit hard cause it showed them it didn't just talk at them
@@ZainR This episode also points out that alcoholism can run in a family and some people are more prone to addiction than others. Cory and Shawn both drank that night, but Cory stopped and Shawn didn't. There could be a genetic predisposition or issues with his upbringing or both, but the point is, one night of drinking doesn't make most people into raging alcoholics, but some people are vulnerable to it and need to be wary.
"Your actions have consequences"
I don't know, you don't really get drunk one time, and become a full blown alcoholic, showing up plastered in school, and shoving your GF.
I love how when Corey asked to go after Shawn, Feeney let him go no questions asked. He was irritated as a teacher of course, but knew Shawn needed Corey.
That speaks volumes about Mr. Feeny as both an educator and as a human being. Yes, he was mad at the moment, but he also knew that that wasn't who Shawn really was, and he knew that if anyone could get through to him, Corey could. He cared enough about his student to let his friend reach out to him.
I think this episode kinda in the wake after their Father's death so I liked Feeney around this time, plus they are not children no more.
@@timafiggyI think Mr. Hunter died in the next season
@@stephenedward6866 You’re right
@stephenedward6866 you're correct. And the next episode was another,where Shawn got drunk!
I love how none of them gave up on him, even when he was being really mean. No one said, “fine, screw you, I’m out”. I like that Topanga DIDNT start giving Corey ultimatums. They really love him.
Deep observation. Now a days, no one has patience with their "loved ones" anymore. If things don't go their way or the person is going through hard times, it's bye bye real fast. It's as off people don't love as deeply as they used to.. I don't know....
@@volb9817 It's probably true, that people don't love as deeply as they used to, so to speak.
Nowadays with social media, tinder, etc. people's friend groups and dating choices are much bigger, so if something gets hard they can just drop someone and move on to someone else.
That also makes friendships and relationships more superficial.
The problem is, Lizzie (can I call you Lizzie?) is that I seize every oppurtunity to feel morally superior to others, and if I can Lord something over someone then it helps to heal the hurting that is going on inside me.
I would totally use this oppurtunity to build myself up by tearing Shawn down. Not only that, but I would use his treatment of his girlfriend as an excuse to be violent towards him under the guise of 'outrage' or 'wanting to protect her'. The reality is, is that I do not care for anybody else other than myself and seek only to mould others perception of me to my own benefit.
@@DrMcMoist May I help you?
@@volb9817 "Now a days" .. oh god...
This is wierd how freakin accurate his portrayal of being drunk is. Ive seen actors try to play/act drunk and it comes off as comical. Here though, this is spot on.
Spot on? Have you ever been around alcohol?
@@notimeforjokes.3570 Actually there are many types of drunks and I know someone who behaves like Shawn in this scene, says what he wants and doesn't care about the consequences, it's as if his ability to think before acting disappears the more liquor he drinks.
@@NataliaLeal97 This much is true. However he's not slurring a word. His thought process, while angry, isn't misguided or jumbled in the slight. It's very well done and more accurate than any other 90's sitcom but it's certainly not "spot on " True alcoholism is WAY uglier
@@southbeachtalent True, though in this scene he's only had about half a beer (unless he had more offscreen right before the scene.) That much wouldn't totally change your personality or make you slur words, even a teenager. True alcoholism is rampant in my family and we're talking hard liquor all day, everyday. THAT is real ugliness. I think Rider did a great job here.. not perfect but pretty close.. especially the very last line where his voice cracks like he's about to cry, realizing (finally) what is happening to him.
@@astrangerhere Agree with everything you just said. Only thing I'd want to see is if they'd want the audience to really get the message they'd go all out. Truly make him disgusting. They took half measures here to protect the characters of the show from backlash. Why? Embrace it head on or avoid it and do your teeny bopper show. Imo it's giving college freshman the wrong impression of this life. This ..... This isn't it
The best ultimatum. Angela basically said "either get help or we're done"
More like " either get help or no more of this chocolate for you"

The moment I realized I really enjoyed a half bottle of whisky alone wasn't a good sign. If alcoholism runs in the family, Don't Drink.
Are you sober now?.
@@ericortega1745 I don't drink as much, because I felt the red-flags, My family history with alcoholism kind of made me more self aware.
@@raintuatoo6383 yeah I love whiskey but have to stop for 2 months every 4 months just to make sure I am not getting addicted.
@@Bawrabawla Thats exactly what I'm doing too. For me as long as you got good people you can trust, its smooth sailing.
ever since i turned 16 my "friends" tried to get me to drink with them but i always refused bc i was scared if i tried it and liked it that i might not be able to stop and then i'll end up like my dad. They never understood but i knew it's a dangerous risk for me. This episode means the world to me bc i've always felt so alone with this experience
The absolute terror, fear, and confusion when Angela walks out. "how did that happen?"
I like how topanga went to make sure angela was okayy every single time she would walk away! It really shows the kind of person she is that she's always there for her bestie no matter what! I honestly loved seeing that in this show as a kid and looking back at it now, it warms my heart! I'm glad shows like this exist! :)👌
When Angela kept kind of flinching when he was moving close to to her that made me feel like he actually is abusive. But he is still fiddily fine
Too bad the actress that played Topanga was a racist bitch to the actress that played Angela in real life. 🤔
Jesus Christ is lord. Please read at least three books of the Bible. The first book of each testament and one you chose yourself. As you do practice forgiveness. It is important. Please
This also shows Topanga upbringing in her house to care for those around herand handles conflict well while others would flee this situation and pop up weeks later like fake friends do. She may not dress like it no more but she still is the keeping the peace ,flower Girl, love all ,mentally.she is a strong believer from her parents and litterly stayed on that path all the way til adult hood. The Also holds confidence and strength here and doesn't hold back the truth and In justice is not her stronghold. Which in turn here IMO we start to see their future plans come into fruition in this season for both Corey and Topanga .
Notice how Topanga turns to look at Corey first, before going after her friend.
Boy Meets World knew how to tackle real life problems. This episode is one of the best ever. Handled brilliantly. It brought out some of the best performances out of all the actors.
Yep!
I still think about that one episode where Corey thought Shawn had a girl come over to his place but it was revealed that he was protecting her from an abusive relative and they handled the situation in that episode well.
Haha, ok, I’m going to say this stopped absolutely no one from drinking.
@@notimeforjokes.3570the point wasn’t for this to stop people from drinking. But it did illustrate the reason teenagers drink and it did it in a pretty realistic way considering it was a family sit com.
"How did that just happen"
Kills me everytime. One of the most painful things I've ever experienced, is becoming sober and realizing how much damage you really do to the world around you
Don't drink alcohol in order to become popular or to drown your pain. Those are fake friends, you don't want to be around those people. Drowning your pain isn't good.
Your words described something like: if you only drown your pain. That pain could only resurface again later. And if you keep using the same strategy of just drinking to always make the pain go away temporarily, then that person will only “fill the ocean” with seas of trouble because of alcohol.
Yes same thing with doing drugs
I agree
Drinking is a solution to half the world's problem
@@allthemgoodstuff9111 mmm, not really. I can do anything like people who drink without drinking lmao.
That "how did that just happen" gave me chills. I used to do meth. And my mom used to do meth. I got stuck on it for a while because my life wasnt going very good. I didnt sleep for 3 days. I was seeing shadows and i thought ppl were after me looking thru the blinds . My freind woke up and said "wtf are u doing" and its like those words snapped me out of a trance. And i ran to the bathroom and saw myself in the mirror and i cried so hard i looked like a damn zombie..... and its been 7 years since i touched it .
You just couldn't use your amphetamines responsibly dude. Millions use them daily and responsibly for medical benefit
I once spent like, an entire day slinking around my house with a gun while I was tweaking. I knew intellectually that I was home alone, but I couldn’t shake the feeling that there was an intruder in the house who was lurking just out of sight & watching me
Congratulations on 7 years. Its crazy how wrapped up one can become on drugs and not even realize it. Sometimes all it takes is that one person or that one word to snap you back to reality.
@@justinanderson3241 it’s the proverbial frog in boiling water thing
Awww. I am very proud of you.
When he pushed Angela I remember being FLOORED. I didn’t like they made Shawn jump so drastically to physical aggression. This was so heart wrenching.
I thought it was a bit out of character, but I think they showed it that way on purpose. To show people that alcohol can change how people behave.
Even if you think someone can’t get aggressive, an alcoholic can always get aggressive. As you can see he immediately regretted it bc he immediately realized it wasn’t him But in that moment of anger it happened. Alcoholics will hurt anyone when their angry, even if sober them wouldn’t.
@@SpiegelmanSzn I believe it was a subtle nod to 'the apple doesn't fall far from the tree'. Shawn just got done being told about his dad being an abusive drunk, and then took the first step towards that same path. Even Angela leaving, citing that she doesn't like he drinks, echoes back to the story.
It was very well written.
I mean to be fair, it is a realistic, if “sped up” potential real life consequence of alcoholism. And whilst this is a bit on the side of hyperbole, admittedly, it is a very effective story telling technique.
Show don’t tell.
Notice how at 2:46 Shawn’s brother doesn’t straight-up fight back. He just grabs Shawn’s arms to keep him from hitting him because he ultimately doesn’t wanna hurt him. He wants to help him. Great detail.
“How did that just happen?”
You drank a chemical that is designed to lower your inhibitions, son. You let your animal out of its cage and you didn’t even put it on a leash
I love this scene so much, because it taught you enough about alcohol to know Sean shouldn’t drink, teaching you about alcoholism and the genetic component, this couldn’t better convey the message ‘drink responsibly’
@Black Rhino Martial Arts i drink alcohol responsibly, I barely drink it too be honest. There are people like us out there.
@Black Rhino Martial Arts completely different.
Alcohol Is a lot more accessible dude!!!
@Black Rhino Martial Arts are you seriously trying to say that alcohol is just as bad as heroin.
They are both really bad for you, but there is a reason why alcohol is legal and heroin isn't.
@blackrhinomartialarts9298 Actually, I do know how to moderate my alcohol intake very well, because I'll have one drink once in a while when I'm going out for a special occasion, and then I'm one and done and stick to non alcoholic drinks for the rest of the night, so don't automatically assume that everyone who drinks is an alcoholic who doesn't know when to be responsible and cut it off, because that just makes you look like a condescending/patronizing jackass
Ryder Strong really deserves recognition. He took this role to soooo many different types of levels.
Show was ahead of its time. Glad I grew up on this
"go across the street from her and cry" is probably the sickest burn i've ever witnessed
@partycitypoopwr It was also really funny as well cause Cory was pinning over Topanga the whole episode
The part when Angela had to collet herself before she started beating him up is what made me so scared to see Shawn actually abuse her that would be so scary and I think that if he was still drinking he could actually hurt her
I hate how they use alcohol as an excuse for abuse...it's clearly within him to do so without the beer....don't blame substances everything is a choice..he clearly isn't so drunk he can't have a normal conversation so he was in control
@@razkable It's actually not an excuse, alcohol and drugs are the exact things that makes people go horrible and make their situation only worser because they can't handle certain things in life. Because life isn't easy and it never was. And we are all responsible for it, you don't deny that because they CHOOSE to but those things to poison themselves and addicted and rinse and repeat
@@razkable Sure, within him to shrug her hands off him, but not within him to shove her without realizing how much it would hurt her. That’s the issue here. Alcohol uninhibited him. It is not at all an excuse though.
@@razkable they aren’t saying it’s an excuse. They’re saying that the alcohol brings out that side of him, like it does for many people. And he’s not having a “normal conversation”. He’s being aggressive and hostile.
my dad would get drunk every weekend but was never abusive
Oh my god this almost made me cry. I love Shawn so much and seeing him like that is heartbreaking
Same but it tackles Real world issues that's what makes it such a powerful scene.
Jesus, you need to get out more.
Shawn broke my heart in this scene after what he realized what he did to Angela! 💔
this is the best way i've ever seen a kids' show handle issues like alcoholism. the confrontation was incredibly realistic and believable. huge props to rider strong on his acting choices in this scene.
Other teen shows would have gone with just “alcohol = bad” as their moral. It’s nice to see a show that makes the point that drinking is more problematic for some people than others.
"I happened to be an adorable drunk. You should've seen me."
Gotta love Cory. 😂
You can always tell someone's true personality when they drink.
This is only half true and a bit of a generalisation, if someone is going through a tough period and is generally a good person day to day but has a bad night
Then offends someone while drinking it doesn't mean that is their true personality if they are a good person the rest of their lives
Not really
This show was amazing for its time! As a teen, I watched this all the time
When I was just entering high school
This, saved by the bell, and hannah montana taught me great things about high school
I did so good when it came to no sex or drugs I school but I did have depression and eating disorders.
@@danyellaguerrero6089 dang that sucks I'm sorry yo hear about that I went to two Hugh schools my freshman year and a month of my sophomore year was a living hell especially in 03 of my freshman year 04 was a little decent but still I got bullied slot and got beat up and was a little Christian boy so I was taught don't do nothing if I was how I was now I woulda knocked people out and got kicked outta school my second school was totally opposite never had beef with anyone well only 2 or 3 people bit I was friends with alot of people totally different environment
I was a huge Hannah Montana fan growing up but might i ask what exactly did it teach us? That your best friends can keep secrets about you being a secret rockstar?😭
@@havingteawiththedevil it taught us friendship lessons
@J N there was always a moral at the end
If I remember correctly
This scene is so powerful
It always the ones who say they don’t have a problem that have a problem.
Yes I just assuming that how it is
I can stop anytime!
The first (and hardest) step is admitting one has a problem. The next step is not giving a fucc. Smooth sailing after that 🌊
Turned 21 and within a month went from half a beer on Saturdays to shots of whiskey and rum chased down with four of five beers every day. Forgot that my family has a history with alcoholism. It’s nice to see a kids show be honest and show how serious the problem is and how fast it can grow.
Are you alive
Praying the Rosary every single day has completely shattered a past addiction. I cannot recommend it enough, Mother Mary is our loving mother in heaven and wants to help us. God bless you.
@dropdead266 That remains to be seen
2:47 My father is, or was, I really don’t know now, an ugly drunk as well. Alcoholism is in my family, on my father’s side, as well. That is why I do not drink, chances are, I am going to continue the cycle if I ingest alcohol.
That s what his brother was saying alcoholism affected thier dad in a bad way. His first wife jack s mom left him cause of his drinking Shawn is becoming like him when he pushed Angela
Chance that can happen but it also a chance it can’t happen. My mother side of the family are alcoholics, some of them are bad alcoholic. Few of my family members love drinking but we don’t drink much
shawn father past away
I can relate. Alcoholism ran on both my parents’ sides of my family and I’m not gonna be the one to continue it
That's why I've never had a drop of alcohol. Even from a young age I would see how my father got when he was drinking, and I knew what booze can do to you.
They need shows like this again.....the shows nowadays don't teach ANYTHING
That's because the world is now full of social justice weirdos and cancel culture where the only lesson these days is going online and talk about how offended they are at stuff without realizing they're just making things harder for everyone else because it causes everyone to want everyone else who doesn't think the way they think to be cancelled instead of just getting a life
@J N most of the shows back then taught us something......there are very few that teach young people anything nowadays.....I remember how it use to be, I grew up in the 90's. It's totally different now, and not in a good way.

Jack is an amazing person i feel like he doesn't get enough credit
Boy meets world is by far the best sitcom to ever air. Life lessons every episode for all walks of life. I watched this show growing up every day. It really does pull on my strings man
4:02 is where Shawn really goes off the deep end!
Ikr I was like that’s when you fucked up
0:33 i thought he was about to say the f word
Lol
This show has its serious moments, but it never failed to make me laugh
Ironically, he's in front of a sign that says "bored? Nothing to do?"
And he spoke about being bored
@@cheneethompson5756 Glad I'm not the only one who noticed.
I love how the laugh track was tactically placed almost as if to say that shawn is downplaying it then is confronted in a very serious manner then they suddenly stop.
There's no laugh track on this show . They always had a studio audience .
I feel like the appeal of the show was the fact that they had times when they were all younger that the show could get serious but not often but the writers let shit hit the fan when they all got older and gave them way more challenges to face. What a show 🙌
Man the guy who played Jack did some great acting here. From the moment he walks in you can feel the anger and disappointment from him
Matthew Lawrence
All of them were great actors tbh. I'm actually impressed, I didn't realize how solid this show was when i was a kid but watching it as an adult it holds up so well.
I feel like this age of children/teen’s programming is long gone. No way would they have one of the MAIN characters in a sitcom succumb to alcoholism at like 17/18 years old, physically fight with his family and friends, and shove his black girlfriend up against a wall. This is what happens in America, people should be aware of it instead of studios sugar-coating life for kids nowadays. Cheers to everyone in this show for making it one of the most memorable aspects of my childhood and growing up.
Topanga: “you were drinking!?!?!?”
Also Topanga: “I saw you”
She didn't know WHY he was acting like that.
Angela was gorgeous. Shawn was very lucky.
Angela is hot Chocolate chick
Boy really met world in this scene
Very good example of what alcohol will do... all it does is destroy and cause problems. "I know of lots of people who have lost everything bc of alcohol... but I don't know of anyone who has gained anything bc of it"

That actually doesn't make sense. Technically, idependent/local breweries gain a source of income from alcohol. As do bar owners and their employees. Arnold Schwarzenegger would drink after his workouts and made all sorts of literal gains. Tf

I started drinking when I was 13 years old cuz of extreme depression
I've known through out the years I have a problem with alcohol
Now I have a daughter that's 4 years old and I have no interest in drinking anymore

Alcoholism is in my family. I'm the odd sheep because I don't need to be drunk to have fun.
That's not really how alcoholism works.
Yes I know but unfortunately some people find it very hard to quit
@@TimedRevolver it's about influence.
Yes, alcoholism doesn't transfer genetically but it can transfer in your daily life by the people you surround yourself with
Genetics exist and some people have “addictive” personalities which derive from their respective families and so yes, alcoholism works that way when you combine your genetics and environment.
You probably arent doing it right then.
Shawn drunkenly pushing Angela is the kinda think you don't see that kinda thing too often in sitcoms. Most shows, especially these days, glamorize the idea of drinking
This is the most real episode because I went through this as well as most my friends and a lot of us suburban kids who thought it was cool to drink and go to school and parties. Alcoholism and peer pressure is very rampant in high school. It feels like it’s something new and exciting and you don’t feel like it’s wrong AT first. I literally was in Shawns shoes AND Cory when he drank to get over the pain of not having Topanga. I can relate as well as many others.
I kinda laughed when Cory said adorable drunk lol he always tries to bring humor in bad situations
The face Angela made when Shawn pushes her into the door always gets me. 😢
They don't make good shows like they used to anymore
I like the messages on this show.
"Just once I'd like to learn something somewhat revenant to our lives"
And with that Shawn predicted the entire premise of girl meets world.
Boy meets world is so underrated
For the people saying that their dad is dead, I think this episode was actually before Chet had passed away. The actors may have just messed up their lines, but I’m pretty sure this episode is before Chet’s passing.
yeah it’s before chet died
Maybe the order was wrong...they may have made the death episode before this one but aired this one first...
This is not before Chet died! This was the episode with Alan's birthday, when he offers to adopt the hunter boys! That's what sent sean to drinking. And later Chet appears as a ghost.
@@superstarreviews9937 i can't tell if you're joking but this is season 5 and chet doesn't die until season 6
Chet dies in the show? How?
This reminds me of this one guy I dated. Thank God he never put his hands on me, but he got very verbally abusive, and he was always angry and getting into fights with everyone. He always found something to complain and argue about, and couldn't stop drinking if his life depended on it. So I ended it and never looked back since. He really thought me marrying him was going to make him stop drinking. I'm glad I'm not putting up with that anymore, but it still makes me sad to think about the future we could've had had he not been an alcoholic. But now I'll never know.
You were SO SMART! You did the right thing. I once was with someone I cared about and loved very much who also showed the signs.. and just like you he would propose and say he wasn’t drinking much. But I felt in my heart he’d never be better and I’d the the small stresses would set him off, I can’t imagine what having a mortgage and a bunch of kids would do to him. We dodged bullets babe ❤
Damn, Angela handled that hard push very calmly. I on the other hand would have gave Shawn a swift kick to the nuts.
Back when Disney was based and their shows actually taught VALUABLE life lessons. Thank god this is what we grew up with.
I don't think this was Disney at the time was it?

90's shows just hit so differently. They meant something special, family values. You don't see shows like this anymore.
The moment he realises he's going through the same process his dad went trough, and then looked directly at his brother who told him a minute ago about his dad. That just hits different...
Shawn in my opinion had some of the best performances and story arcs. A kid who didn't think he'd ever make it. Even as an adult he still kind of didn't think he would. But he did. As much as I would have loved for him to have ended up with Angela. I'm glad he found a wife and a kid that he just adores because lets face it he had a tuff life but always had his friends to help him get through it.
I was a ride or die Boy Meets World fan as a kid. Listening to this now as an adult, the dialogue is way too mature sounding for actual teens. Also, I can see that they're probably in their early 20s playing teens...classic move. Still, the nostalgia is great. I loved this bunch.
Eh idk how old they are supposed to be here but youd be suprised how mature older teens can be
ayo i was watching funny bmw clips just a second ago i wasn't ready for this what 😭😭
*2:29**-**2:51*
Its kinda funny Shawn makes fun of his dad and when Jack says how his dad was when drinking, Shawn goes fighting mode
🤭
That’s the point lol
he accidentally asked a good question.
"are we gonna learn anything relevant?"
As a recovering alcoholic I wish I had remembered this scene growing up. Then maybe I wouldn't have messed up all these years
It's okay brotha never too late, hope your better now
This is such a powerful dramatic scene in this show.
This show was so well written! The actors were excellent too!
i feel so bad for shawn and jack :(
I always thought he was lucky Angela didn't come back and knock him off his feet.
i mean if your kindhearted boyfriend did that outta nowhere youd be startled. domestic abuse is fuckin scary
@@MsDudette21 Shawn was lucky her marine father never found out about that
This acting is ridiculously good
I literally took these lessons to heart. Alcoholism runs in my family to the point of violence. I'm grateful for the honesty this show portrayed. Alcoholism is not easy to get past. It's an addictive drug that changes the person like night and day. It's harder when the person appears to be fun under the influence but drinking to numb their pain. I wish more shows would be this honest.
Alcoholism runs in my family. Both of my parents had problems with drinking and sadly it led to my mother’s death. I don’t ever want to put any of my loved ones through anything like that which leads me to a quote I go by. I do drink occasionally and whenever I’m asked how I’m able to keep it under control, I say “I learned from my parent’s mistakes”. I have those who love and care deeply about me and I have my little one to think about because I’m all he has.
It runs in my family to on my dad's side but he stopped drinking when he got out of rehab he's been doing a lot better
Both of you should stay as far away from alcohol as you can. Before you know it it could become a problem especially if it runs in your genes. Just count your blessings and find better more positive things to do. Alcohol is the gateway drug to everything. Never lose your imagination. Find something passionate and focus on that.
@@allfacts19 I’m a survivor of a brain tumor that nearly led me to self destruction and the birth of my little one saved my life by giving me a purpose and for nearly 13 years I’ve been very grateful , blessed, and most of all healthy
Sorry
@@rhiannonmcdaniel5303 sorry
This is literally the best show in the world
I wish they would do more shows like this now with this generation it would really help
The sign in the back of the class of the dog with the words "Bored?" on it use to make the beginning of this scene extra funny.
2:02 this episode was definitely written by someone who's been around alcoholism. "Why don't you go across the street from her and cry". That was a viscous, personal, kill shot of an insult. About something you could only know because someone that loves you confided in you. And you are so numb because of your addiction you threw it in their face
Corey's reaction too - not even mad, just stunned, perplexed, like "man, who are you right now?"
I saw this episode as a kid….I thought it taught me a lesson…..I eventually forgot about this…..now that I’m watching again at 27. It’s made me reevaluate my life choices
This show is all about chasing others out into the hallway... and I love it!
I love how they can make this real and funny at the same time.
Nothing is real about this. No 16 year olds have ever had this conversation.
@@jillconner5062 They are not 16. In these episodes they are in College.
I remember at one time these shows were called sexist because the main characters were male, but growing up, it was the impact of scenes like this that made me fall for it.
I watched a bit of the sequel and was stoked to see Cory and Tepenga, but it felt like a shallow imitation at best... the best friend had serious issues to deal with but instead of having a heart-felt communication like this, that might become a subplot for the next couple of episodes, they would sit on a windowsil and cover it up with a rug.
So glad to see a scene like this and realize that I hadn't become jaded, but Boy Meets World is that good.
I think it’s the Disney channel tbh as much as the writing of gmw is off putting and shallow at times there’s also the vice of it being a children’s show essentially I don’t ever even recall them using the word alcohol
Boy meets world was art imitating life. Girl meets world was art imitating art. The latter is almost always more superficial and lifeless which is why so many reboots and sequels today are criticized for being worse than originals.
I don't think I appreciated how powerful this show was as a kid. The writing and characters was top level. They didn't pull any punches and trusted the audience.
I'm so glad you put the season and episode in the description. ❤️
he's a great actor ill say that for sure
Scenes like this make me wanna stop being an alcoholic but then I realize all my problems and continue I wish I had friends like this
His friends only judged him they never ask why he is drinking that much they are no better
laugh track intensifies
You will never watch tv like this ever again... this show is honestly one of the greatest of all time. so real. so pure. So many REAL lessons. They'd put laughter over scenes as an adult....... you're like.. thats not funny. Someone needs to help that kid. Such a beautiful show. A must watch/rewatch. RIP television lol...
Better than the garbage that is GMW Disney Channel can't make live action shows the only quality stuff are So Weird, Even Stevens and Zack and Cody
Even while drunk he’s Corey’s wingman lmao
