Boy Meets World marks season 3 with a new credit sequence, a TV internship for 18-year-old Eric (Will Friedel)--who longs to work as a weatherman--and a relationship for 14-year-old Cory (Ben Savage, now with a deeper voice) and Topanga (Danielle Fishel). When his parents left at the end of the previous year, Shawn (Rider Strong) moved in with English teacher Jonathan Turner (Anthony Tyler Quinn), and that's where the action begins.

While Cory has Shawn, Topanga has Trini (Brittany Murphy), Frankie (Ethan Suplee) has Joey (Blake Soper), and Mr. Turner has Eli Williams (Alex Désert), who joins John Adams High as media arts teacher. Under his tutelage, Cory learns the price of journalistic freedom when his exposé costs Janitor Bud (Bob Larkin) his job, though Mr. Feeny (William Daniels) finds another way to use his talents (in the 1972 musical 1776, Daniels played John Adams). Cory and Shawn also come to see different sides to Feeny, their principal, and Frankie, a poetic thug.

Just as Cory is transitioning into adulthood, Boy Meets World's third season has a transitional feel as the tone turns serious more often, like in "Hometown Hero," in which Cory and Shawn break into the chemistry lab and start a fire, and "Brother-Brother," in which Cory has a hard time letting Eric go. It's still an entertaining show, but a little less funny, even if it allows Strong and Daniels to do some of their best work. Fortunately, there are still plenty of upbeat episodes. In "Train of Fools," for instance, Cory throws a New Year's Eve party in a subway car, and in "I Was a Teenage Spy," he travels back to 1957 in a nod to Happy Days. Unlike previous sets, this one eschews audio commentary. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

5.0 out of 5 stars BMW Season Three, June 1, 2005

By 

BMW Fan (Australia) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Boy Meets World - The Complete Third Season (DVD)

For those people who haven't seen my previous BMW reviews, I think that BMW is just a fantastic show. With that in mind, season three is no exception.

The gang are now on their next stage of high school life. There's a bit of confusion here at different points, because they seem to alternate between years 8 and 9. However this really isn't a major point of the show and unless people are going to get picky, it really doesn't matter.

The season starts out with Cory and Topanga FINALLY agreeing to be a 'couple'. Their relationship as some rocky moments, with Cory telling Topanga that he loves her early in the relationship, however things eventually get sorted. The relationship doesn't last though, as Cory and Topanga realise that they are spending too much time together and losing themselves. He eventually follows her to Disney World, Florida though in an attempt to win her back.

Meanwhile Shawn is adjusting to living with his new Guardian, teacher Jonathan Turner. As they try and find each other's boundaries, the audience learns a lot about each of these characters and both of them grow significantly throughout the season.

Cory's brother, Eric, also takes a more significant role this season, with several episodes focusing around the world that he lives in during his last year of High School.

And of course, Mr Feeny is always there to support and offer those words of wisdom.

There are heaps of known guest stars in this series as well who go on to do other works, or have been previously known for other works, including Andrew Keegan (10 things and 7th Heaven), Charisma Carpenter (Buffy and Angel), Brittany Murphy (Uptown Girls, Just Married etc), Richard Karn (Home Improvement), Micky Dolenz, Peter Tork, and Davy Jones (3 of the The Monkees), Mena Suvari (American Pie), Larisa Oleynik (10 things I hate about you) Pat Morita (Karate Kid Series) and Shane West (League of Extraordinary Gentlemen)

The episode list is as follows- My Best Friend's Girl, The Double Lie, What I Meant to Say, He Said She Said, Hometown Hero, This Little Piggy, Truth and Consequences, Rave On, The Last Temptation of Cory, Train of Fools, City Slackers, The Grass is Always Greener, New Friends and Old, A Kiss Is More than A Kiss, The Heart is A Lonely Hunter, Stormy Weather, The Pink Flamingo Kid, Life Lessons, I Was A Teenage Spy, I Never Sang For My Legal Guardian, The Happiest Show On Earth

5.0 out of 5 stars BOY MEETS WORLD, SEASONS 4-7 NOT TO BE RELEASED...WHY?!, June 21, 2007

By 

Envii - See all my reviews

This review is from: Boy Meets World - The Complete Third Season (DVD)

Boy Meets World was a great show. Season 3 may not have been its best season, but Buena Vista has cancelled all further seasons from being released due to poor sales of this DVD set. It's a shame, because as the gang got older, they got funnier, and seasons 4-7 are the best of the show.

If you love some BMW, buy the third season so that we can all enjoy those that followed!

This review is from: Boy Meets World - The Complete Third Season (DVD)

Hi! This is a great set although I would've liked to see some commentaries as in season 1 and 2. Hey! Season 4 has been cancelled! If you want to cast a vote for it contact Disney: [e-mail]
This is the address that Disney says to use to request DVDs be released. We've got to let them know that we want seasons 4-7!!! Lets make a difference!!! Thanks and God Bless!!!
