Will Friedle

I think Eric was annoying, but it was probably a fun part to play. He seems like he has a sense of humor about him, and likes to play the big goof who has a total lack of embarassment. Either way, I'd still like to get into his pants.

That and I believe that Boy Meets World was basically a kid's show-it was on TGIF, for crissakes.

I've seen Kim Possible a few times. It's pretty cute. Reminds me of NickToons, like As Told by Ginger.

ETA: I just thought of something. Ever read the Star Wars X-Wing books? Well, in the one, Wes Janson tells another pilot that "You can't look dignified when you're having fun." I think that is probably Will's motto. (Even if he doesn't realize it).

I am a genius.

Boo-yah! ;D

I saw this thread near the top of the page and was worried for a second there. *Whew*

About what?

[realitybug]

That he's dead, I think.

I love this guy. I love Boy Meets World. Eric was so funny.

[nadia]

Or that he was caught driving under the influence, made racist remarks, popped up selling his teeth on eBay to fund a drug habit. Really, when a new celeb thread pops up on CPMCoG, the possibilities are endless these days.

He seems normal though, so yay for him!

Selling his TEETH? Who the hell did that?

I have heard that Ben Savage was a dick. I'd see Will and Rider Strong in those teeny-bopper type mags, but never Savage.

Haim sold his teeth on Ebay, right? Guin, thing about Savage and teen mags is, he's really not that cute. Especially compared to the other two guys on the show, he's kind of fugly.

Yeah, it was poor puffy Corey Haim. From New York Magazine:

Fallen teen idol Corey Haim has been reduced to selling parts of his anatomy. Michael Kronick, owner of celeb-memorabilia site Startifacts.com, told us that The Lost Boys star was in his Las Vegas office autographing pictures and "happened to have a tooth handy, since he had just come from the dentist." Kronick put Haim's molar on eBay and fetched a high bid of $150, but eBay removed it a few days later because the auction site prohibits the selling of body parts. Kronick says the tooth is still available for sale through his firm, as is Haim's hair: "We've been selling clumps of it for $99 a pop."

Sad. At least Will's not dead or selling parts of himself.

All of the above.
He seems to be one of those actors who keeps a low profile, so when his name was near the top, I assumed right away that he had died or something.

He was the sole reason to watch it, IMO. Even when he was Stupid!Eric.

...Or making porn or some dumb-ass reality show.

Ben Savage IS a dick. My former roommate had a friend who went to Stanford (where Ben Savage went) and went to parties at his frat all the time. Apparently, being Cory Matthews gets you laid at frat parties, and he knew it. Of course, I don't think he realized how fug he is...

Anyway, I much preferred Will & Rider, and I'm glad they've turned out okay.

Mods, can we start a thread for former child actors and the trouble they get into? I want to hear more about Corey Haim's teeth.
