Its because the writers have to put the work in to show the affection rather then just writing and then they kiss or then they embrace. They have to work to show the connection and it makes it more romantic even if it bromantic
Because homoerotic relationships are allowed to have a natural progression of affection, even if they are just friends. Actual gay relationships are kinda forced, just hookups, or there is no screen time.
0:37 this sentence means that this isn't the first time Eric has jumped in to Jacks arms. It also means that Jack remembers because he notices a weight difference.
I know I'm really late, but both series are on Disney+, but Eric and Jack are only recurring characters on Girl Meets World so don't go into the show expecting to see them a lot.
Hey y’all! I was wondering if you guys wanted to see an actual analysis of Eric and Jack’s characters. Kinda like a video essay. I like analyzing characters so if you have any other queer coded characters (or just characters in general) that you want me to make videos on, reply to this! Edit: I’m going to make the videos into 2 or 3 parts so I don’t go so long with out posting. I’m half way through season 5. See you soon!
Oh my gosh yess please !! I would def watched it the two of ur jeric analysis were so good and on point and very entertaining to see ☺️ so im very open to see more content of these two idiots in luv lmao 😆❤️
Never seen a single episode of boy meets world but I like to believe that they ended up together happily ever after. Also for some reason the basketball scene makes me laugh way to hard
Hey thanks to you I actually started watching Boy Meets World, rn I'm in season 5 where Jack and Eric finally get to meet each other. So far I ship the gay lads so yeah thanks for making these wholesome Eric and Jack videos
This definitely influenced why I like Alternate Universe-Modern Setting, roommate, friends to lovers, slowburn, pining fic so much. Aaand why Steve leaving Bucky broke my heart 😂😭
In my head, they would still hanging out for a while, Eric would be a good influence on Jack and he would the bad corporate world and start to be a good bussinessman. They would get married and Jack would be Senator's husband, Mr. Hunter-Squirels!😂😂🐿 Then they could adopt kids and a dog.🥰🥰🥰
You can’t screen record or download them to your photos on a streaming service, also I’m not buying a dvd set (which I also can’t screen record) just to make a short video.
The only half-fix is to click the gear icon and click .75 speed because the audio is sped up, but note the basketball he's handed at 0:45 looks like a football because the image is stretched horizontally beyond watchability and that can't be fixed - THUMBS DOWN with a click of "Don't recommend this channel"
Ships likes these make me upset. One of Boy Meets World's best lessons was that of deep platonic love (most notably seen with Cory and Shawn, but also seen with Eric and Jack). Focusing on Eric and Jack, they are both clearly straight (neither of them showed any romantic interest in men). Despite that, over the show they become very close and form a love for one another, but not romantic. This show does an excellent job at showing platonic love, especially between two men. When people ship Cory and Shawn or Eric and Jack, it pushes the idea that two men cannot have a very close relationship/love for one another without them being gay. That, in turn, promotes "toxic masculinity" as straight men who see ships like these will be hesitant to form relationships like these. I get that this was meant to be harmless, but it's something to think about.
i sort of agree and you see this between platonic relationships of men and women too, it affects all genders which is why it isn't great to distill it down to just men.
I get what you're saying fam, truly I do, but there is a marked difference between how Cory and Shawn's relationship on the show is portrayed as opposed to these two. With Cory and Shawn you see the beautiful bromance, you get the sense that they love each other very deeply, but it's clear that this love is just platonic. With Eric and Jack you get the same sense of deep platonic love for sure, but the line between friends and more than friends with them is a bit more blurry if you get what I mean…they treat each other a lot more like life partners than as friends despite never being in a relationship. That bit aside, you have a great point about platonic male friendships like Eric's and Jack's and how important they are in order to show that they can exist and thrive. I just think that given the characters of Eric and Jack, them both being straight men who have zero interest in one another seems a tad unrealistic from my POV.
@@trishalennex4630 They don't act like a couple, they act like friends, really good friends. I'd agree that they're in love with one-another, but platonically not romantically.

This is boy meets world on abc not boy meets boy on your gay network it was made for TGIF a wholesome block of shows with family values and even the spin off girl meets world on sister channel disney was made by the wholesome company michael jacobs productions. just because you got a crush on them doesn't make them gay. next you will say corey and shawn were bi
HEY YALL!!!! I made a part three. Go check it out!
Part 3: th-cam.com/video/EUFkolMVAb4/w-d-xo.html
Thank you!
Idk why but the homoerotic relationships in shows tend to be better than the actual gay ones,,,
RIGHT?? It’s so weird
its the yearning
Its because the writers have to put the work in to show the affection rather then just writing and then they kiss or then they embrace. They have to work to show the connection and it makes it more romantic even if it bromantic
Because homoerotic relationships are allowed to have a natural progression of affection, even if they are just friends.
Actual gay relationships are kinda forced, just hookups, or there is no screen time.
Because their on screen chemistry works
Ideal future: Senator Eric Matthews and his husband Jack adopt a dog and three kids.
5 kids and a Feeny
You assume this isn't the fan fic that already exists in my head.
This is canon in my head now.
this is canon and no one can convince me otherwise
It's the moment where Jack immediately goes to jump out of a window after Eric "died" for me
OMG A DIRECTIONER AND A BMW FAN ELLO MATE

often enough that he notices a weight difference....which has gotta mean it has happened a lot XD
I haven't seen the show but I ship them so bad!!!
You should see it, it's real cute! I too, ship them so bad :)
It’s on Disney Plus if you have it!
@@metallicmikus oooh, I do have it! Thankss
You can watch it on fmovies too

Yes
Yesss please do it!!!
Never seen a single episode of boy meets world but I like to believe that they ended up together happily ever after. Also for some reason the basketball scene makes me laugh way to hard
0:54 Eric: "fine I'll do it. I'm the oldest"
Jack: "actually I'm the oldest"
Eric: "yeah but I've lived the longest"
Gets me every time 😂😂😂
5:05 and they should've kissed right here.
I wholeheartedly agree
there was way too much sexual tension in that scene
Hey thanks to you I actually started watching Boy Meets World, rn I'm in season 5 where Jack and Eric finally get to meet each other. So far I ship the gay lads so yeah thanks for making these wholesome Eric and Jack videos
You’re welcome 😌
They are so in love with each otherrr ~
No matter how many times I watch this show I still laugh so hard I cry. So many memories!!
Nothing to do with their relationship (which I love and I love your video too) but I wish Jack had a moment Shawn in gmw
Same
"roomate" is code for dating
actually they got married and had a baby after the show- how did Girl Meets World forget?
the plot is way better in my head 😭
This definitely influenced why I like Alternate Universe-Modern Setting, roommate, friends to lovers, slowburn, pining fic so much. Aaand why Steve leaving Bucky broke my heart 😂😭
Or in this case, roommates to lovers
Dang it! Disney Channel missed out on another opportunity for an amazing couple!
Yay, there is another one! I just watched the first one and checked your channel for more. Part 2 is already out! Yay!
4:00 no seriously he aged amazingly???? Im jealous lol
Oh my God, they were roommates.
I'm still shipping them!😍😍🥰😂😂
What do shipping them mean??
@@treasejones5620 Thinking about them as a romantic/sexual couple.
5:34 the most obvious-
It’s things like this that made me a lonely person who loves flirting but never anything more, it’s better
Maybe you're aromantic ^-^
@@gurlllwut3555 maybe 😳
I loved the little comments throughout hahahah and completely agree with them!!
Another one of your videos on my home page lol, imma just subscribe
gotta dig that thumbnail 👌
Eric and jack are like the Disney version of Chandler and joey
Solo diré :
Jeric Supremacy 🛐🛐
Rachel left the peace corp and joined a company called Blacked as a performer, God bless her lol
NAH BC THE "HOOWDY HO!!" IS A SOUTH PARK REFERENCE AND IT'S SO FUNYN
Aw you didn’t add Omg they killed Kenny.😭
And they were roommates.
'They were roommates'
miraría la serie solo por ellos
Lmao I didn't really know her 🤣🤣😂☠️
The first one is my favorite
That the kid won the bet❤😂
I'm convinced the producers didnt want a gay couple but the writers did so they had to kind of come to happy medium
Really enjoyed both parts
You know how I know your gay ? Because you recognise your own , other gays
you’re so right
Oh my god noooo where the 1 part went?!?
It’s in the card, or you can just go to my channel. :)
@@metallicmikus oh ok thank u very much !! Love all ur jeric analysis btw 🥰💛💛💛
Hey McMeekle you should do the same thing with Cory and Shawn's relationship.
In my head, they would still hanging out for a while, Eric would be a good influence on Jack and he would the bad corporate world and start to be a good bussinessman.
They would get married and Jack would be Senator's husband, Mr. Hunter-Squirels!😂😂🐿
Then they could adopt kids and a dog.🥰🥰🥰
Whats that flag next to jack in the tumbnail, I hadnt seen it before
Gay man flag :) but also non-binary people only attracted to men can use it too.
@@metallicmikus ah I see thanks :D
Apparently they were going to make eric gay or bi but decided not too because they felt it was too early
Mickey you're amazing
COuld someone inform me of the Green white And purple Flag in the thumbnail ive been seeing it everywhere but still dont know what it means thank u~
It’s the vincian (non women who exclusively love non women) flag. :)
@@metallicmikus :00 cool
Ok but the photos between scenes? I want info
Pinterest!
what flag is that on jack in the thumbnail?
Gay flag (male to male)
Nah they’re just the best of friends
You have so much trouble "finding" episodes and those with quality; we need to buy you a DVD set? I'll bet it's on at least one streaming service too.

ok
There partners gay was not shown on television but it could be emplied
Isnt Eric older than Jack tho? He started college 1-3 years after high school, Jack went straight after
we never see jack in high school and we never learn how old he is i don’t think
And they were roommates
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
But… they were both always trying to get together with Rachel and had girlfriends at different times. Bff, def, gay, naw.
Nah bro. They are just bros
Sure Jan
