Girl Meets World I just posted the scene where we find out he is Tommy. I didn't feel like putting all the clips together. But I'm sure someone else will post them.
I think during filming, they kept her out until JB Gaylor's part was perfected, so that when Danielle FIschel was in the room, she would be genuinely surprised.
The episode of "Boy Meets World" where Eric tells Tommy he's not going to adopt him is arguably one of the saddest episodes in the series. The hardest part to watch without bawling is when Eric shuts the door after telling Tommy the news, and then he just breaks down sobbing while the social worker watches.
To me it seemed like girl meets world... didn't understand the point of that show. Every episode I caught that didn't connect back and wasn't about her girl!shawn seemed like the cast tried too hard to keep her from meeting the world.
Claty Rebel The reason GMW didn't feel like a spin-off is because it wasn't a spin-off not in the normal way to begin with it since it was more of a sequel /spin-off much like The Suite Life on Deck and Raven's Home.
same here I started crying alittle bit, I was so mad when they ended things between eric and tommy on boy meets world but then I saw this on tv and now its on of my favorite girl meets world clips
I think deep down Eric needed this. Giving Tommy up with the hardest thing he ever had to do and knowing that he turned out all right was exactly the closure he needed on that chapter. It was what he needed to reassure him that he did the right thing in not adopting him.
@@marioferrara8044 He was not in the right position to be a father at that point in his life. He was barely out of high school. Fans the show can tell you that he could barely manage himself. They just kept making Eric more goofy as the years went on.
@@Artisan1979Definitely! He barely could manage himself, didn’t have a stable job and didn’t have his own place (house/flat/annexe etc). There’s no way they would’ve placed Tommy with him sadly since he just wasn’t ready for such a big lifelong commitment.
@@marioferrara8044 he made up his mind to adopt tommy when his parents kept telling him it wasnt the best idea cause he barely had a job or a sense of independence. The social worker at the orphanage showed him the family that wanted to adopt tommy as well and Tommy didnt want to go with them cause they lived out of state. But Eric realized they could give him so much more so he gave him up.
And then the way he just smiled and let him talk showed his growth. Got the best of both worlds in that 2 seconds of acting. And the way he walks down the stage to him was just perfection.
What made me cry the most was how Eric couldn’t care less about where he was, who he was up against or anything. Cuz, seeing Tommy big, grown, and happy made those old feelings he had when Tommy was a child come flood back. And he did such a good job holding his tears in…
It's sad (in a great way) because you can hear Will nearly break-down in tears when he realizes who that is. It's almost like they didn't tell Will that Tommy was coming back and/or they didn't tell Will that it would be the exact same actor. Like I mentioned in the main comments; no matter what you are doing or how well, you see a kid you mentored grown up and doing very well and is very happy, that is SO much more rewarding than any material thing.
@@crazyman7671 Well, I know they didn't tell Topanga's actress. Her reaction and the sudden realization are genuine. She honestly didn't know who he was at first, and then when he said his name, it clicked for her.
@@maevemallory2122 Yup. Apparently, from what I recently heard, only Eric, Corey, and Tommy's actors knew the truth, everyone else was kept in the dark.
I find it awesome that not only did they bring back Tommy, but they even got the same actor to play him again. That IS J.B. Gaynor, the same actor who originally played Tommy in "Boy Meets World"
PrinceTrexus I been tryna figure if that was really him and thinks to you I know that was the same guy that played Tommy in bmw. Thank you so much because that was killing me not knowing if it was him or not.
The one thing this series did spectacularly was the call backs and closure to so many old storylines. I would have liked one more season for maybe Jack and Rachel. But frankly I can't complain about what they've done it's amazing that they got so many of the original actors back.
This gets in the feels EVERY. TIME.😭 Especially when Eric says "Tommy" and doesn't even care about the election he goes up and hugs him with proudness in his eyes
Rewatching that part reaffirms that Will Friedle is an amazing actor. I can feel the character losing all focus on the election now that something much more important is in front of him.
@@mansourshah8856 do you mean that they didn’t tell him they were bringing the actor back or the character? The actor I can believe, but the character I don’t
The way Eric embraces Tommy at the end and puts his hands on his shoulders and takes him in is done with such a parental overtone, Will Friedle deserved an Emmy for this scene
Not every scene that people like deserves an enemy. It’s just a good scene. It’s not a Masterclass and acting, which is what an Emmy is supposed to be about. It’s literally just an emotionally charged scene. And it hits the nostalgia. The acting itself is very poor. We forgive it because we like the characters.
I just cried like a big baby. I remember when I was a kid watching the episodes with Tommy. It broke my heart when Eric couldn't adopt him and Tommy was too young to understand why. The fact that they brought him back as an adult and he actually thanked Eric for what he did brought me to tears.
I don’t think anybody calls him stupid or irresponsible. He’s not smart. But he is very lovable and he always did the right thing. And he always had incredible emotional intelligence.
I feel like Danielle (topanga) genuinely didn’t know J.B (Tommy) was going to be there. She looked like she didn’t know what was going on more than anyone else and when he said who he was (well who j.b said he was for the show) Danielle looked so confused yet shocked, and I think she just went along with it
actually when filiming this no one knew this was a improv script from the director that only Tommy had lines rest was just natural reactions from the main cast
Fantastic, it's such a shame they cancelled gmw. However in the brief time the show got they gave us tons of closure for so many characters. The Eric and Tommy reunion being the most brilliant of them all. Just REALLY wish they would cut it out with the cliche Disney shtick (kids peeking around corners or that total mood killer with the phones and such). Just let the moment be beautiful without the forced comedy
This scene always reminds me of the award ceremony for Mr. Rogers where he forgets all about being honored and is just so excited to see the little boy he knew all grown up that he jumps up immediately and runs to the stage, bypassing even the stairs. People are more important than ceremonies.
you might admit that eric isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed but he is the most caring and loving person and we need people like eric in the real world in our world
In boy meets world when tommy was leaving he said i couldn't leave without saying goodbye i knew once he said that they were going to see each other again soon this is the best reuniting since Angela came back to see Shawn
I’m so glad they were able to use the same kid. This hit right in the heart. I don’t watch GMW, but I had to at least come to RUclips and watch the reunions. I am not disappointed at all. #4everaBMW90’skid
Unfortunately, they only gave GMW 3 seasons, though it was basically 3 and a half seasons since season 2 was really long with 30 episodes and there was 1 episode that isn't officially apart of any season, but it really is like a 3 season epilogue to BMW where Cory and Topanga are now passing on the things they learned to their kids and their friends. And they wanted to give BMW storylines closure. Basically what I'm trying to say is that if you ever rewatch BMW I encourage you to throw GMW in your rewatch too, you might surprise your self with how much you like it.
That but where Tommy said you sacrificed the future of children for yourself,should be shown to the government.they need to see more tv shows like this.they need to see how controlled our lives are as kids.
This is why mentorship is so important. Feeney imprinted values and make an impression that doesn't ever leave. Eric in turn did that for Tommy and hopefully Tommy will do that for someone else. Our genetics aren't the only legacy we can leave behind.
eric not adopting tommy and jonathan not adopting shawn were two of the saddest things in the show. we were really robbed it's understandable, it makes sense... but we were still robbed nonetheless
@@filo4854 SERIOUSLY I'll never move on from it my biggest BMW headcanon: shawn's dad stayed in the road, him and shawn having a good, solid long-distance relationship, seeing each other every now and then. jonathan adopted shawn. happy ending
I hated the way they just ended Jonathan's character abruptly even the actor spoke about it when he was on the podcast with Danielle, Rider and Will. I'm glad he was brought back in Girl Meets World to reunite with Shawn but still what a missed opportunity in the original series!
Girl Meets World often felt like it was made specifically for the 30-year-old Boy Meets World fans. As a 30-year-old BMW fan, I loved that, but I always thought that it hindered the show from finding a new audience. Modern kids haven't watched BMW and don't care about these old plotlines. They should have just made a show that was more about the adults, for the old fans.
Watching Girl Meets World actually made me interested in Boy Meets World, especially due to them including the plot lines. It made me want to understand what was going on and so I went and watched it. Eric Matthews is definitely best boi.
Omg, I remember the episode with Tommy and Eric and that was a tearjerker. It’s all coming back in circle as we see a grown up Tommy helping Eric out on his campaign as well as remembering one another. You’ve gotta be in the 90s to appreciate this sentiment
I met Will Friedel at a comic con today and he was one of the most amazing genuine person I have met. I really enjoyed the few minutes that I got to see him and talk to him. This show will never be the same to me it will be so much better
This was a moment I couldn't have imagined from this show. Tommy seems to be often forgotten and his voice was well "hidden" until this moment where it suddenly becomes very recognizable.
Ok I love home GMW explored Eric & Tommy relaninship from BMW Eric was such a great mentor to Tommy basically sacrifcing his desire to adopt Tommy cuz he knew he was ready to be a dad and gave Tommy to people who made a great life for him
This was like the perfect cathartic moment after so many years of knowing Eric sacrificed by letting Tommy go and not knowing if Tommy would ever understand.
Best scene in the whole show in my opinion very emotional and I'm pissed the show was cancelled this brought back a lot of nostalgia for me and I'm sure a lot of u as well
Brandon blame Disney not only did they cancel it, but from what I understand they refused to give up the rights to networks that actually wanted to keep it going.
I think Eric and Feeney were opposing sides of logic Eric’s logic came from the heart Feeney’s logic came from the brain Depending on the direction Cory wanted to go he would get advice and the advice that seems to get to him or Topanga or Shawn seems like it originates from one of those two characters
This was the best moment from Girl Meets World. It was so rewarding. No matter how many times I see this video I get tears. Eric Matthews is the big brother, we all deserve.
*has a great heartfelt moment* *interrupted for some comedic effect* *continues with heartfelt moment as if nothing happened* Other than the random interruption, it was a great scene
This was probably one of my favorite moments on GMW. I could not believe they brought Tommy back. The Tommy arc in BMW was really sad so it was great to see him again and finally understand Eric's decision.
The connection these two had was UNMATCHED. I loved them. Eric was so young at that time he couldn’t have taken him and I’m sure he thought about him everyday. This made me cry so hard 😭😭
Ok I remember this episode I'm so glad Tommy returned his relationship with Eric was so great it was so hard for Eric to not adopt Tommy but he knew it was for the best to have Tommy with a family that could properly raise him
Watching this. He couldn’t finish without Eric recognizing him. I admit I felt the tears. I remember the episode Eric had to give him up. It was clear Eric did love Tommy but he knew this was the best thing. Even if it broke his heart.
I just watched this 3 times in a row, and unbelievably I had to stop during the third time because I can't keep crying at work. This is seriously beautiful. I'm still tearing up as I write this. They pulled this off so well... I just, I wish the rest of the show was this good.
That was a really sweet reunion it made me tear up Eric really did love Tommy and it was one of hardest decisions Eric ever had to make in his life to give him up cause Eric knew it would be better for Tommy to have 2 people that could provide for him
I just watched the BMW where Eric gave Tommy up. After, he was sitting on the couch, feeling depressed and Amy said “when he gets older he’ll realize what you’ve done for him.” Now coming back to watch this, ugh, it’s amazing the details the writers added in to GMW!
when eric said "Tommy?" and he said hi i dead broke down lol it was like eric was just glad to see that his boy was good,someone he thought he would never see again
Кино
Topanga was all of us during this scene.
when Topanga realized who Tommy was it made me cry like a little baby.
Mskittenlover12 I realized it at the exact same time she did when I first saw the episode. I also said “Tommy?” at the same moment Eric did.
I think during filming, they kept her out until JB Gaylor's part was perfected, so that when Danielle FIschel was in the room, she would be genuinely surprised.

The writing on Girl Meets World was always way better when they connect an episode back to Boy Meets World.
To me it seemed like girl meets world... didn't understand the point of that show. Every episode I caught that didn't connect back and wasn't about her girl!shawn seemed like the cast tried too hard to keep her from meeting the world.
If every episode was like this one, new episodes would still be filmed. Most of GMW didn’t feel like a spin-off
Then why didn't girl meets world have seven seasins
This was Girl Meets World ?
Claty Rebel The reason GMW didn't feel like a spin-off is because it wasn't a spin-off not in the normal way to begin with it since it was more of a sequel /spin-off much like The Suite Life on Deck and Raven's Home.

I love it too

@@igraarale9049 no I call him George
I think Eric and Feeney were opposing sides of logic
Eric’s logic came from the heart
Feeney’s logic came from the brain
Depending on the direction Cory wanted to go he would get advice and the advice that seems to get to him or Topanga or Shawn seems like it originates from one of those two characters
This was the best moment from Girl Meets World. It was so rewarding. No matter how many times I see this video I get tears. Eric Matthews is the big brother, we all deserve.
I'M NOT CRYING....... MY EYES ARE JUST SWEATING
SOMEONES CUTTING ONIONS
And now I’m crying again after all these years... Never thought we’d hear from Tommy again 😭😭😭
*has a great heartfelt moment*
*interrupted for some comedic effect*
*continues with heartfelt moment as if nothing happened*
Other than the random interruption, it was a great scene
This scene still gets me Topanga's reaction was priceless
Ikr! I can’t wait to watch gmw after watching bmw for the first time(I’m almost done)
Eric is Mayor of St. Upidtown hahaha
😂😂😂
Im ashamed I just noticed that
St. Upidtown, Stupidtown, I can't unsee that.
@@noobmaster-nq6fk That's the joke.
@@darththeo i understand that was the joke. I'm just pointing out that I can't unsee it.
That was the biggest twist on the entire show. I couldn’t believe my eyes
Absolutely brilliant to bring Tommy back, and the original actor too. Closure to one of the most heartbreaking scenes ever on TV.
When I first saw this I teared up. Tommy didn't even have to introduce himself...I already knew 😞
This was probably one of my favorite moments on GMW. I could not believe they brought Tommy back. The Tommy arc in BMW was really sad so it was great to see him again and finally understand Eric's decision.
The connection these two had was UNMATCHED. I loved them. Eric was so young at that time he couldn’t have taken him and I’m sure he thought about him everyday. This made me cry so hard 😭😭
As soon as he said his full name, Topanga realized right away it was Tommy!
Did anyone else notice Topangas reaction when Tommy was introducing himself?😀😂
Ok I remember this episode I'm so glad Tommy returned his relationship with Eric was so great it was so hard for Eric to not adopt Tommy but he knew it was for the best to have Tommy with a family that could properly raise him
I remember watching this and going"OMG ITS TOMMY!" Just to see Eric hug him with such pride and joy seeing him again. I had something in my eye...
Watching this. He couldn’t finish without Eric recognizing him. I admit I felt the tears. I remember the episode Eric had to give him up. It was clear Eric did love Tommy but he knew this was the best thing. Even if it broke his heart.
The second he says Tommy, tears spring into my eyes, I can't help it
0:17 Topanga face is so cute!!! :)
This was one of my favorite scenes on GMW. It was done so well!
best scene in the whole show from the call back to the look on topanga's face when she realizes at the exact moment we do who TJ is
The look on topangas face when tommy introduces himself is.... well it brings tears to my face
So happy they got the real tommy back for this episode
I just watched this 3 times in a row, and unbelievably I had to stop during the third time because I can't keep crying at work.
This is seriously beautiful. I'm still tearing up as I write this. They pulled this off so well... I just, I wish the rest of the show was this good.
Boy Meets world was such an incredible show 🥹
That was a really sweet reunion it made me tear up Eric really did love Tommy and it was one of hardest decisions Eric ever had to make in his life to give him up cause Eric knew it would be better for Tommy to have 2 people that could provide for him
OMG I cried when I saw this last night
I cried a little when I saw this last night
Ah dude, his voice breaking when he said "Tommy?" breaks my heart, makes me wanna hold him 💔 😢
Maaaannn when he stepped down and said "look at you". Lord have mercy, my eyes. They're so watery.
I don't care how much I watch this part i always cry I love this part so much
He may be an idiot at times, but you can’t deny Eric has a big heart.
"The best thing Eric ever did for me was one of the hardest decisions he had to make...he gave me up..."
I just watched the BMW where Eric gave Tommy up. After, he was sitting on the couch, feeling depressed and Amy said “when he gets older he’ll realize what you’ve done for him.” Now coming back to watch this, ugh, it’s amazing the details the writers added in to GMW!
This was the most emotional and heartfelt reunion ever 😭😭💯
this made me tear up when we learn this was tommy
I love that they gave an end to this story in Girl Meets World.
when eric said "Tommy?" and he said hi i dead broke down lol it was like eric was just glad to see that his boy was good,someone he thought he would never see again
