Listen "The Issue with Eric Matthews from Boy Meets World"
Episode Synopsis
For those nostalgic about the '90s, Boy Meets World was likely a significant part of your youth. While Cory, Shawn, and Topanga were beloved, Eric Matthews was the charismatic, cool older brother everyone admired.
Initially, Eric was the quintessential older brother: humorous, reasonably intelligent, adept with women, and someone to look up to. However, his character evolved into 'Plays With Squirrels.'
What caused this transformation? Did he suffer from flanderization, lazy scripting, or was it comedy taken too far?
