Boy Meets World: Season 04 (1996)

Theatrical Release Information  |  See Details About All Versions

Season four of Boy Meets World finds the now 16-year-old Cory Matthews (Ben Savage) still trying to make sense of the world around him and the people in it. More specifically, Cory's relationship with classmate Topanga Lawrence (Danielle Fishel) has gone far beyond mere friendship...but is he willing to risk her anger and scorn by once more declaring his love? Elsewhere, John Adams High School's coolest teacher Mr. Turner (Anthony Tyler Quinn) is no longer on the series, his absence explained away as the result of a serious motorcycle accident. Since Turner had been the legal guardian of Cory's best friend Shawn Hunter (Rider Strong), Shawn has no choice but to move back in with his irresponsible truck driver father Chet (Blake Clark). Also, Cory's older brother Eric is having trouble gaining admittance to the college of his choice, forcing him to make some serious decisions about the future. Similarly, Cory's dad Alan (William Russ) has begun asking himself if he really, truly wants to spend the rest of his life working in a grocery store. And finally, Cory loses track of another longtime buddy when the character of Frankie (Ethan Suplee) is written out of the series, not to return until the fifth season finale episode "Graduation." Of the many fourth season Boy Meets World episodes, a handful are standouts, notably the Christmas episode "Easy Street," featuring comedy legends Buddy Hackett and Soupy Sales; and the two-part "A Long Walk to Pittsburgh," wherein Olivia Hussey, star of the 1968 film version of Romeo and Juliet, appears as Topanga's Aunt Prudence. And we mustn't forget the first appearance of Bonnie Bartlett as Ms. Bolander, Dean of Admissions at Penbrook College -- and future wife of the redoubtable high school principal Mr. Feeny (played by Bonnie Bartlett's real-life husband William Daniels). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
