Mary Hernandez I agree Eric never was stupid some people like hey in season 7 he became dumb he was always smart he was just goofier as he got older i mean in gmw he becomes senator and in season 7 he saved the gangs friendship so he is smart
This scene carries a lot more emotional weight with me now. Why? Because I'm currently watching Boy Meets World in order, and when I saw this episode and Eric said, "Because you're growing up, and some of you have already started", I realized that Cory said the exact same thing in Girl Meets World! One of my favorite parallels/callbacks
I kinda wish that one show could actually have friends that didn't grow up together. Watching all these shows made me wanna have a best friend growing up, which never happened. It sucks.
Kobe Busia That's true, but I feel like he's so often dismissed as being stupid or having his head in the clouds all the time. I mean, it's true to a point, but then there are times like this when you realize that there's much more to him, and I feel like that's too often forgotten by both fans and other characters on the show.
Eric and Sean we’re supposed to have a bigger part in the show but the both actors kept laughing so they had to separate them and since Eric was older than the gang he became the comedy relief
Gotta love the irony of Eric telling kids about peer pressure and smoking, yet Will Friedle at his age was already a pack a day smoker. Glad he stopped, especially after William Daniels kept reminding him he was killing his heart doing so behind the scenes.
What happened to this Eric?! He went from this to someone who acts really dumb and crazy. I mean I still like Eric and we get to see this Eric from time to time but why'd they completely change him?
I think I know what happened to Minkus well might have been just from his fanfiction either he was in the show for the large sensor leerhsen or that if parents dragged them around and put them in a special area of the school because they felt he was an adequate because of his parents
I love this scene because the poem Mr Ferny reads at the beginning is one my Nana always sits down and reads to me in her broad Scottish accent no matter how old I get. I’m twenty now and she still reads it to me. I know I’m going to miss it one day.
it's interesting I never remember having peer pressure in junior high or high school or even college to do drink, smoke, etc. nothing in college I had a couple guys in an English class that smoked and asked if I would like to smoke wih them, but that's abut it I would say no and hey would just say ok maybe next time
I was in the 6th Grade the same time Season 1 aired, 1993. If Cory or some other kid wore a dinosaur shirt to 6th Grade class, he would've got his ass beat. Jurassic Park was about to blow up at this time and one kid wore a Jurassic Park t-shirt often in junior high. It did not go well for him. I also went to an inner-city school, so maybe it's just my experience. I thought it was goofy when I was 11, Cory's shirt.
I truly believe that when Eric locked eyes with Topanga when he said some of you already started but Topanga was sad because Eric didn't recognize her soul from his Past Life.. basically Eric NEVER experienced any Spiritual Awakening in his life. Topanga KNEW EXACTLY that Eric and her were Past Life Lovers/Soulmates and they were to reunite in REAL TRUE LOVE one way or the other. Majority of fans NEVER realized this exact piece of actual information.
not relevant but when will they teach stuff like this in my country. they should make them understand not just warn or scare them. (sorry if there is any grammar mistake)
it's funny i never got pear pressure to smoke, to drugs, nothing, i think a friend said he was going to go to smoke asked if i wanted to come, i said no and we just went are separate ways
1:20 Okay, where the hell did Eric go to middle school? Because I don't recall seeing many 7th graders taking cigarette breaks during recess when I was 12...
For anyone who needs encouragement: Romans 8:18 “The pain you’ve been feeling can’t compare to the joy that is coming!” John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” Whatever is going on right now, have faith, your situation will get better. :) Jesus bless anyone reading this and happy new year!!🥰✨💖
why is he reading Cremation of Sam McGee, but it has American Poetry on the board. Robert Service was born in England the poem is set in the Yukon. you are better than this Feeney
I think Eric isn't dumb but, what he has isn't book smart but creative and street smart. To me he was always a goofy character . 😀
Mary Hernandez I agree Eric never was stupid some people like hey in season 7 he became dumb he was always smart he was just goofier as he got older i mean in gmw he becomes senator and in season 7 he saved the gangs friendship so he is smart
They made Eric dumb... later on.
ok
They did the Homer Simpson thing with Eric, they made him dumber every season.
He was always an idiot genius.
Topanga: I think anyone who smokes is a disgusting pig.
Minkus: I'm trying to quit!
needles1987 😂😂😂😂😂
I can agree with Topanga well except the being disgusting pigs but people who smoke, drink, and takes drugs causes nothing but harm to your body.
😂
I laughed at that too! 😂
Lmao

Season 1 was full of powerful lessons like this
Nwver noriced that good stuff on that
I kinda wish that one show could actually have friends that didn't grow up together. Watching all these shows made me wanna have a best friend growing up, which never happened. It sucks.
I relate :(
Same
I relate so much!
I AGREE!!
True me and my best friend knew each other but we was actually enemies for long time
Eric: What about alcohol?
Cory: Eric we’re not into that stuff!
Season 5x18 laughs maniacally*
Eric is so underrated tbh
+Asha How? He's one of the most beloved and popular characters from this show
Kobe Busia That's true, but I feel like he's so often dismissed as being stupid or having his head in the clouds all the time.

Personally Eric and Morgan where always the best the others where just a vechile to them.
Eric was smart in the beginning...WTF happened to him?
trier4952 I think it all changed when Eric lost Tommy.
urbanvancity I agree
He never wasn't smart just sometimes his hormones made his logic not fully function. And a bit of goof ball at times.
Oh he's smart, but he cares more about what's in people's hearts than book smarts
Eric and Sean we’re supposed to have a bigger part in the show but the both actors kept laughing so they had to separate them and since Eric was older than the gang he became the comedy relief

He suffered a concussion
@Benj Smith Productions ah makes sense then.
That's why Minkus got lost in the shuffle in high school.....started hanging out with kids from the nine or 10 other sixth grade classes.
I think I know what happened to Minkus well might have been just from his fanfiction either he was in the show for the large sensor leerhsen or that if parents dragged them around and put them in a special area of the school because they felt he was an adequate because of his parents
I love this scene because the poem Mr Ferny reads at the beginning is one my Nana always sits down and reads to me in her broad Scottish accent no matter how old I get.
I’m twenty now and she still reads it to me. I know I’m going to miss it one day.
And that's growing up! Congrats that's the meaning of life. Enjoy it Grace :)
I felt bad how minkus kept getting picked on
Mary Hernandez you and me both 😕
CT Dawg All of us actually
Shawn looks taller than the other students in the class
Mint Fowler I think he was 14 in real life. Lol
Steve Borelli Yeah
He just hit puberty before the rest of them. It happens.
He's gonna look shorter as the series progresses. He's the only one who didn't grow--or age, really.
Because he was an eighth grader in real life but the other kids were sixth or seven graders
Awww Eric is so cute here
I can't blame Topanga for having a crush on him... Eric is the love of my life
Minkus is so cute!!!😍😍😍
Gracie Sprinkle I
I love that poem.I love this show. Love all the characters. Just a whole lotta love :D
Omg topanga blushing☺️u see her face
Is it just me or do I love Eric's hair in the first couple of seasons
Fucking love the early seasons. Such good writing for a kids show.
My teacher read my class that poem!!!
im trying to quit !! 😂
I’m trying to quit😂😂😂🙌🏻
What happened to Eric he was so smart when he was younger
He suffered a concussion
he became insufferable.
Eric was great in that season👍
Cory and Shawn drink in the future ironically 🍺🍹
Eric is people smart even if he’s not book smart.
Cory and Shawn drink in the future 🍺🍹
This also happened in girl meets world
omgitzbri 6213 but boring
; omgitzbri ? Which episode?
He actually have a very good point.
How is this clip not being played in schools ???!!
I need Feeny to narrate an audio book
I don't smoke because I have my own vices that I'm trying to fight.
Topanga was 90's bae 😍
Was??? 90's?????? Topanga is all time bae😍😍
A friend of mine had to memorize this for class night at me school!
The one piece of writing Cory wouldn’t fall asleep during and Eric ruins it
it's interesting I never remember having peer pressure in junior high or high school or even college to do drink, smoke, etc. nothing in college I had a couple guys in an English class that smoked and asked if I would like to smoke wih them, but that's abut it I would say no and hey would just say ok maybe next time
No, Topanga! NO!
I was in the 6th Grade the same time Season 1 aired, 1993. If Cory or some other kid wore a dinosaur shirt to 6th Grade class, he would've got his ass beat.

I also went to an inner-city school, so maybe it's just my experience. I thought it was goofy when I was 11, Cory's shirt.
So why Minkus wasn’t in all the seasons😡😡😡😡😡
Cause he was in The Torkelsons and then the spin off series instead.
Thanos snapped and changed reality
Why is Topanga is so awkward around Eric in this scene???????
Hannah Foster
She'd previously tried hitting on him. She went in for a kiss and got rejected.
Anthony DePaola true
Because she had a crush on him and he made it clear that he was too old for her
Damn, how come they couldn't KEEP Eric like this?
My mom had to memorize this poem in school
I’m 35 and still like baseball and comic books
First conment I love this show 💖👌😘
What episode was this? ( i would like the number or a description)
Eric is cool
I truly believe that when Eric locked eyes with Topanga when he said some of you already started but Topanga was sad because Eric didn't recognize her soul from his Past Life.. basically Eric NEVER experienced any Spiritual Awakening in his life.

I'm trying to quit 😭
it's funny i never got pear pressure to smoke, to drugs, nothing, i think a friend said he was going to go to smoke asked if i wanted to come, i said no and we just went are separate ways
I hated that they dumped him up
1:20
Okay, where the hell did Eric go to middle school? Because I don't recall seeing many 7th graders taking cigarette breaks during recess when I was 12...
7th grade is high school for them for some reason
What I don't get in this episode is why he calls Minkus the complete nerd make is just intelligent
I hate how they tried to make Eric more dumb as the show went along but he still kinda ended smart

I’m trying to Quit Lmfaoooo
Why Is Eric Dong Cory Class
What was Feeney reading at the beginning? I am not cultured?
It's a poem. The Cremation of Sam McGee, by Robert Service.
I couldn’t find drugs in high school.
Only drugs I found were prescription and cigarettes
Ohhh I saw mine did in not in High School but middle School also.
Maybe it was more normal in the 80s. I was born in 1991 so i would have no idea
why is he reading Cremation of Sam McGee, but it has American Poetry on the board. Robert Service was born in England the poem is set in the Yukon. you are better than this Feeney
The Yukon is in North America. North *America*
3 eitgth graders who smoked pot oncein there lives thumbs down
