I was just reading about the show on Jumptheshark.com and someone posted something about Kevin Arnold having a speech problem in later episode,as he got older,calling it the 'stuttering scandal'.
What exactly is that? Because,i did notice that Kevin uses alot of pauses while he is talking in the later episodes,is that to hide the stuttering problem?

No i dont think fred savage had a speech problem in real life i think his voice was just annoying his voice is still annoying in the year 2013, but i think the person who wrote about the stuttering scandal on the jumptheshark.com few years ago was talking about in seasons 5 and 6 when his voice changed it would take a few seconds for him to say something if you watch the season 6 episode the nose he acts nervous and tends to mumble alot, kevin never stutters on any of the 115 episodes but by season 5 and 6 he does seem to take a while to say something lol

His voice isn't annoying! I love Fred Savage's voice--it's unique and actually kind of soothing because it's a softer kind of voice.

Man, I sure miss Jump the Shark. I wonder if the original creator still has the html files to post someplace.

Yeah i miss jump the shark also magellan333 i use to go on that site everyday back in 2004 and 2005 to read peoples comments about the show it was entertaining to read what people around the globe thought about the wonder years, some people on that site thought the wonder years jumped the shark in the 5th season when kevins voice changes from boy to man lol, the original creaters of the old jump the shark most likely have the files and comments fans of the shows wrote on the site but they dont have the rights to upload them on the internet, the only way to get the original people of jump the shark to upload the old files is to start a petition to get their attention.

His voice got worse in season 5 when he hit puberty when the show lost its ratings he turned into a awkward teenager
