Boy Meets World was a much better show than the wonder years! I think that Ben can act tons better than his brother Fred! Boy Meets World had a better cast and it ended better. I can't believe that they didn't put Kevin and Wenni together in the end. Well that is my opinion please let me know what you think.

I totally disagree. The Wonder Years was far better than Boy Meets World. The Wonder Years was ground breaking, funny, and addictive. Boy Meets World had none of these qualities. Boy Meets World was a lame show and Corey was very annoying. Bear in mind that this is just my opinion and I don't expect everyone to agree with it.

I liked Boy Meets World's seasons 1 and the last ones when they went to college. Never liked the middle school years. But anyway, Wonder Years is much better in my opinion. It's a classic.

Well I still think Boy Meets World was a much better show but The Wonder Years was ok too. And Boy Meets World was a CLASSIC! And anyway what do I expect this is the wonder years message board!! BMW FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hmm, I'll hafta declare a tie for me. I liked them both for different reasons. BMW was more of a comedy than TWY, and for me, they're too different to compare.

I didn't mean to be a JERK! I'm sorry to everyone. I still like BMW but I shouldn't have ragged on The Wonder Years. I only compared them because they are brothers. Peace out and I'm sorry JMO

Yes the idea of a boy meeting the world was very effective as Kevin's voiceover manifested his living in the Wonder of his Years!

One time where voiceovers actually work.

I don't think Kevin and Wenn belong together.
He waste whole time on her. He should of went
for someone else.

You have got to be kidding me!! The Wonder Years is so much better. Practically everyone I know watched Wonder Years when they were younger and I can't say that about Boy Meets World. Plus I think that would have been kind of predictible and dumb if they had put Winnie and Kevin together at the end. The Wonder Years was truly an original classic!!!

I think that the Wonder Years is a much better show than Boy Meets World. I am a fan of both shows, but the plot of the Wonder Years was much better. They should have showed Kevin, Paul, and Winny going of to college though. Fred and Ben Savage are both great actors!

LucyFan · 01-27-2002, 12:03 AM

What can I say . . . . I absolutely love The Wonder Years and hateBoy Meets World. It is simple as that. I never cared too much for Boy Meets World because it was so lame and the Corey character was annoying in the earlier seasons. On the other hand, The Wonder Years was so much better because it was heartwarming and the characters were so caring and likeable. The Wonder Years is such a classic and will always be the best of the two shows.

I am a fan of both "Boy Meets World" and "The Wonder Years," so it is a hard decision for me. They were both great shows that were alike in so many ways. I would have to say that even though I was a fan of "Boy Meets World" long before I ever started watching re-runs of "The Wonder Years", I still like TWY better. It had historical value, the voiceovers were unique and it was very real. Yeah, a lot of us would have liked to see Winnie and Kevin get together in the end, but things don't always happen they way you plan and the TWY did a good job of showing this. Like Winnie and Kevin, Cory and Topanga were childhood sweethearts. They ended up getting married and living happily every after. But it rarely turns out like that.

Honestly, I kind of see Boy Meets World as an unofficial sequel to The Wonder Years. When you think about it, they had the same very basic plot idea, just different personalities and stories and different eras.

Neutronman67 · 08-02-2013, 10:52 AM

The Wonder Years is 10 times better then Boy Meets World now i am not trying to start no argument debate on this topic, now i am a big fan of boy meets world the show is off the chain i watch it almost everyday but it can get on my nerves at times because majority of the characters act crazy or goofy and cory and topanga are always acting wild and crazy in season 6 and 7, the wonder years was more entertaining in my theory, i enjoyed some of the 60's and 70's music that was played it blended well into the show, i thought the old school clothings the characters wore made the show feel like it was the 1970's, the characters were never goofy or crazy all the characters on the wonder years were relaxed and calm, you never see kevin and winnie act goofy or silly together in all the 6 seasons they were in together.

90sfan · 06-10-2014, 01:08 PM

I enjoy both shows and have seen them both from start to finish over and over. They cannot really be compared in my eyes, WY was such a different show at the time while BMW was a typical 90s teen show. I love both, anyone find it odd the brothers crossed over to both shows at some point?
