    Always held a special place in my heart because it was about seventh graders, and the show started when I was in seventh grade. It was real ... and call me what you want, but I bawled like a baby during that final episode.

    I did too, and I'm not the least bit embarrassed.

    You know what's interesting about the final episode? The cast had no idea it was the final episode. I saw an interview with Mrs. Arnold a few years ago, and she said nobody told them the show was done when they were filming it. They slapped Daniel Stern's last commentary after the fact, and the cast was like "WTF?"

    That's why I like Boy Meets World so much. I grew up with the show's characters. When they went to high school, I went to high school, and when Topanga went to Yale ... I drank more.

    That's why I liked 90210. I was a senior when the show started, and then, the next year, I shot myself in the stomach.

    I'm with Mikey. I grew up with Boy Meets World (was a little young to see myself in SBTB, but grew up with it, too), and I am in no way embarrassed to say I cried during the finale of that show.

    I don't think I have ever seen the final season. Some channel on DirecTV had episodes on and then they got to the first episode of the final season and stopped showing it.

    Let me tell you wet-noses a little secret. Little House on the Prairie was the OG, man. That was the Wonder Years before the years were even wondered. Get with the program.

    I've never cried at that episode, but it's still the only television show or movie that gets my eyes watery. It really was the perfect ending.

    I'm a year younger than you, I believe, so all I could do was imagine my high school would be like Bayside, I'd be like Zack and I'd have friends like his. I wanted to be the first to throw my hat in the air at graduation and be the prom king -- with Kelly as my queen. It didn't quite work out.
