-
It's kind of charming, and sporadically funny, but nothing special. [23 Sept 1993, p.8G]
-
Savage's sarcastic bon mots sound distinctly more like the words of a grown-up gag writer than they do the spontaneous utterings of a preadolescent. Even though they've dumbed him up since the Borscht Belt pilot, his character is still overwritten.
-
Boy Meets World isn't as classy as "The Wonder Years" - the opening episode doesn't show much willingness to color outside the lines, which Fred's show often did. But the chances that Boy Meets World will stay around are quite good. [19 Sept 1993, p.9C]
-
The marvelous Daniels rises above the cuteness, but he deserves a worthier foe than the loud, whiny Savage. A St. Elsewhere rerun, anyone? [23 Sept 1993, p.7]
-
Borrows heavily from both "Leave it to Beaver" and the original "Dennis the Menace." [24 Sept 1993, p.57]
-
In this trite show about the family and school life of an average 11-year-old, [Ben] Savage's crack timing only makes his glib punch lines seem that much more unconvincing.
-
Bland gruel. [24 Sept 1993, p.E1]
