Boy Meets World: Season 1 [DVD] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC]

I remember how TV Guide and other critics didn't think the show would last as long as it did, unnecessarily putting Ben Savage and his new show in brother Fred's shadow. But Ben and "Boy Meets World" would have the last laugh, running for seven consistently entertaining seasons while building a HUGE viewer fanbase. This complete first season set is somewhat of a special collector's item for casual and diehard BMW viewers, who not only can revisit the freshman season at their leisure but can also re-examine the individual episodes for continuity issues that would later plague the show. "Boy Meets World" featured a perfect blend of heart and comedy in EVERY single episode for its entire series run, and starting with this Season 1 set, can be owned on DVD!

Bonus Episode from Season 4: "Hair Today, Goon Tomorrow"

I'm quite picky on ratings. I only give things I flat out love five stars. But this is definitely deserving.

Hair Today, Goon Tomorrow -- Topanga chops off half of her hair to try to prove to Cory that outward appearances don't matter. *Available With Audio Commentary*

All in all, this is a great season of Boy Meets World. And trust me...it only keeps getting better!!

I collect TV show DVD sets, and I'm very happy to say that this set, containg the first 22 episodes (the whole first season) of Boy Meets World, is no disappointment. The episodes are in great quality, there is a "play all" feature which I find to be very uncommon among DVD sets, and there are many bonus features, like an episode from season 4, audio commentary, and more. I was very impressed with these DVDs and hope future Boy Meets World sets come out just as impressive as this one.
