WEBVTT - Bruh Meets World... Meets World (Season 7 Recap) 0:00:19.120 --> 0:00:23.280 I'm reading this really good novel called The Rabbit Hutch 0:00:23.800 --> 0:00:28.880 by Tess Gunti Gunty g u n t Y. It 0:00:29.000 --> 0:00:31.800 won the National Book Award. I guess the year came out. 0:00:31.840 --> 0:00:33.280 I'm not sure what year came out, but it's a 0:00:33.280 --> 0:00:36.560 recent book. It has this incredible it's so well written. 0:00:36.600 --> 0:00:39.479 She is just an incredible writer, like sentenced by sentence, 0:00:39.600 --> 0:00:41.839 like one of my favorite prose writers I've read in 0:00:41.840 --> 0:00:47.519 a long time. And she has this this sequence or 0:00:47.520 --> 0:00:49.360 this segment of the book where there's a it's not 0:00:49.400 --> 0:00:51.279 really giving anything away, but there's a character. Because it's 0:00:51.280 --> 0:00:54.480 a series of characters, and each chapter is like a 0:00:54.520 --> 0:00:56.160 different character. And I haven't gotten to the part of 0:00:56.200 --> 0:00:57.920 the novel where I think they all come kind of 0:00:57.920 --> 0:00:58.440 come together. 0:00:58.840 --> 0:00:59.959 But anyway, at one point. 0:00:59.760 --> 0:01:04.080 You you're introduced to this character whose mother was a. 0:01:04.240 --> 0:01:06.319 Very successful child actress. 0:01:06.800 --> 0:01:10.000 And lived her in higher life and was a horrible 0:01:10.040 --> 0:01:12.960 mother to him, but a very successful child actress who 0:01:13.120 --> 0:01:16.720 you know, And I just love this description so well. 0:01:16.760 --> 0:01:18.880 And you find out that she was a child actress. 0:01:18.920 --> 0:01:21.560 And then you get like three pages and I want 0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:23.520 to read you two of them because it's such an 0:01:23.560 --> 0:01:24.440 incredible description. 0:01:25.480 --> 0:01:27.399 Okay, so she was. 0:01:27.600 --> 0:01:29.839 It basically introduces her and says she was a bad mother, 0:01:30.600 --> 0:01:33.760 and then the mother's problem was that she never turned 0:01:33.760 --> 0:01:36.800 around when she heard mom in a public space. She 0:01:36.880 --> 0:01:39.440 was an actress first and only when she was four 0:01:39.520 --> 0:01:42.400 years old. Her scarlet hair and greedy parents won her 0:01:42.440 --> 0:01:44.920 the professional lottery, and she had been working since the 0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:49.960 age of five. Baptized in binary waters of worship and disgust. 0:01:50.360 --> 0:01:54.880 You're perfect, You're doing everything wrong. Hush, speak up, You're clever, 0:01:55.320 --> 0:01:58.520 you pretty little idiot. Show us your dance. Hold still, 0:01:58.880 --> 0:02:02.880 give us a song. Be quiet, imitate, be an original. 0:02:03.200 --> 0:02:06.240 You're just like her and her and her. Dazzle us. 0:02:06.640 --> 0:02:09.760 Don't draw attention to yourself. All eyes on you. You're 0:02:09.800 --> 0:02:11.919 not the center of the universe. You're perfect. 0:02:12.160 --> 0:02:12.880 What's wrong with you? 0:02:13.639 --> 0:02:15.840 She was the nation's supply of sugar in the acrid 0:02:15.919 --> 0:02:19.280 years following World War Two, a time of traumatized father's 0:02:19.360 --> 0:02:23.320 economic prosperity and an international deficit of psychological health. Her 0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:25.919 job never allowed her to be a child, so her 0:02:25.919 --> 0:02:29.200 psychology never allowed her to age. It was not advisable 0:02:29.200 --> 0:02:31.440 for a child to have a child, but she so 0:02:31.639 --> 0:02:35.480 childish like to disobey in her teens and twenties, The 0:02:35.520 --> 0:02:38.440 actress built herself a fortress of glass and mirror and 0:02:38.520 --> 0:02:42.320 held whimsical parties there. Bad things happened to the young actress, 0:02:42.440 --> 0:02:47.680 as they often did. Rejection, rape, anorexia, addiction, cast aside 0:02:47.680 --> 0:02:50.480 by an older married man, her first love, as the 0:02:50.520 --> 0:02:54.840 director warned, horrible whigs. But mostly the violence was administered 0:02:54.880 --> 0:02:57.519 by the attention, which was the wrong kind of light. 0:02:58.160 --> 0:03:01.600 Radiation that burned her gave her melanoma of the spirit. 0:03:02.080 --> 0:03:04.480 She learned to grip and collect the things she liked, 0:03:04.800 --> 0:03:07.919 learned that pleasure was the intravenous nutrient that could keep 0:03:07.960 --> 0:03:11.200 her alive. To frame it that way was dramatic, she knew, 0:03:11.480 --> 0:03:14.480 But then again, she was dramatic. So what she could 0:03:14.520 --> 0:03:16.440 say to the army of bad knights that appeared at 0:03:16.440 --> 0:03:19.040 her gate, I still have all these strapping good nights. 0:03:19.280 --> 0:03:22.360 She invented a religion of pleasure and dedicated herself to it. 0:03:22.840 --> 0:03:25.880 She was petite, All her friends were enormous. She liked 0:03:25.880 --> 0:03:29.520 alcohol and drugs. She liked traveling between realms of consciousness 0:03:29.560 --> 0:03:32.120 without going through security or stamping her passport. 0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:33.320 She liked force. 0:03:33.560 --> 0:03:34.560 How if you were. 0:03:34.440 --> 0:03:37.720 Strong enough, you could make anyone do anything. She liked 0:03:37.720 --> 0:03:40.760 avocado three days ripe. She did not like the ocean 0:03:40.840 --> 0:03:43.160 and accuse people of bragging when they claimed to love it. 0:03:43.520 --> 0:03:46.000 Sometimes she'd sit in front of the Pacific and try 0:03:46.040 --> 0:03:49.720 to feel something, but her heart was too landlocked, too midwestern. 0:03:50.080 --> 0:03:52.800 All she felt when she looked at the ocean was 0:03:52.840 --> 0:03:57.680 the presence of the absence of all. Isn't that amazing 0:03:57.960 --> 0:03:59.880 at somebody who's met a child act? 0:04:00.360 --> 0:04:01.520 I just you can be what. 0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:05.480 A way to describe, right, And just like in two pages, 0:04:05.520 --> 0:04:08.480 you know this entire woman's life.

Okay, every time you come on here, 0:09:04.240 --> 0:09:07.000 you're like, Hey, did we ruin anything for you guys? 0:09:07.120 --> 0:09:07.640 And you know. 0:09:07.600 --> 0:09:10.880 Traditionally we're like, actually, no, you didn't really ruin anything. 0:09:11.040 --> 0:09:13.160 For a lot of insight, all those things. 0:09:12.960 --> 0:09:13.920 Still are true. 0:09:14.080 --> 0:09:16.520 Yeah, I guess the question is we have for you 0:09:16.840 --> 0:09:20.160 after watching seven years of this show, has any of 0:09:20.160 --> 0:09:21.120 it been ruined for you? 0:09:22.120 --> 0:09:27.440 Great question?

I understand why they see themselves. 0:09:50.840 --> 0:09:55.040 In you know, Corey, Sean Topanga, Eric, Why now as. 0:09:54.920 --> 0:09:58.440 Adults they see themselves in Alan Amy and Feenie. I 0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:02.520 feel like I have now now joined the ranks of 0:10:02.559 --> 0:10:09.000 the biggest Boy Meets World fans, Whereas before I just thought, 0:10:09.480 --> 0:10:11.920 well this people like this show. 0:10:14.040 --> 0:10:16.360 I guess that's must be how people feel about all shows. 0:10:16.440 --> 0:10:20.480 You know, there's but I really feel like I understand now. 0:10:20.920 --> 0:10:26.320 Yeah, yeah, I agree, it's see. Season seven is definitely. 0:10:26.600 --> 0:10:27.679 Not a great way to end. 0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:29.439 It's too bad. 0:10:29.640 --> 0:10:32.880 Like I hate, I hate like that are even our 0:10:32.880 --> 0:10:34.880 recap ends this way? You know, Like I hate that 0:10:34.960 --> 0:10:37.320 this is the end of the journey. It's not it's 0:10:37.360 --> 0:10:41.120 not fulfilling in that. But if I think right now 0:10:41.280 --> 0:10:44.160 about like if you could just do a boy Meets 0:10:44.160 --> 0:10:47.600 World roulette and just put up an episode. It would 0:10:47.640 --> 0:10:49.640 fill me with so much warmth and it would be 0:10:49.720 --> 0:10:52.439 I'm like, I'm looking forward to rewatching episodes of Boyb's 0:10:52.440 --> 0:10:54.760 World now because I've been through all seven seasons and 0:10:54.800 --> 0:10:57.960 I think it's great and the feeling of like memories 0:10:57.960 --> 0:11:00.439 that would come back just from watching now that we've 0:11:00.480 --> 0:11:02.120 gone through all the show, Like, I totally get it. 0:11:02.160 --> 0:11:03.640 I totally get why this becomes. 0:11:03.360 --> 0:11:05.720 A comfort show for people because it's like, yeah, you 0:11:05.760 --> 0:11:08.560 feel like you've been with these characters for so long. 0:11:08.600 --> 0:11:10.680 I like the thought of us that like in high 0:11:10.679 --> 0:11:12.920 school or us in sixth grade is just so it 0:11:12.960 --> 0:11:15.520 fills me with more than like positive memories. It's yeah, 0:11:15.600 --> 0:11:16.880 I love it. It's a good show. 0:11:17.320 --> 0:11:17.800 I agree. 0:11:17.840 --> 0:11:19.520 I agree with everything they said one hundred percent. I 0:11:19.520 --> 0:11:20.920 can't wait to go back and watch it again. I 0:11:21.000 --> 0:11:23.120 really And one of the things that I've been excited 0:11:23.120 --> 0:11:24.920 about is the fact that I get to watch it 0:11:24.960 --> 0:11:26.000 without rules. 0:11:26.400 --> 0:11:28.120 Like we've been very strict with each other. 0:11:28.160 --> 0:11:30.760 We do one at a time, we're not jumping ahead 0:11:31.160 --> 0:11:33.000 we were, and now I can go, Okay. 0:11:32.840 --> 0:11:34.520 I can watch two or three a night, you know, 0:11:34.679 --> 0:11:36.680 I can. I can't wait to go back and see 0:11:36.720 --> 0:11:38.600 us young again. I feel like the journey has been 0:11:38.640 --> 0:11:41.640 so long that going back and seeing season one again 0:11:41.720 --> 0:11:43.480 is going to be such a trip. So no, this 0:11:43.679 --> 0:11:46.560 is absolutely enhanced Boy Meets World for me in every 0:11:46.640 --> 0:11:51.240 possible way. And yeah, I'm overall I'm so happy with 0:11:51.280 --> 0:11:52.160 the show and the work we did. 0:11:52.200 --> 0:11:52.679 I really am. 0:11:53.280 --> 0:11:56.160 I loved what writer said about the Roulette wheel that 0:11:56.280 --> 0:11:59.160 you're right if you put a roulette wheel with episodes 0:11:59.160 --> 0:12:02.600 from all seven seasons, even if it landed on an 0:12:02.600 --> 0:12:05.040 episode where we were like, oh, this is a bad one, 0:12:05.320 --> 0:12:08.760 my feeling, my feeling would be all right, let's here 0:12:08.800 --> 0:12:09.040 we go. 0:12:09.200 --> 0:12:11.240 Even watching a bad episode sounds like fun, doesn't it, 0:12:11.440 --> 0:12:13.000 Like let's rewatch the Honeymooners. 0:12:13.080 --> 0:12:15.760 Let's do it be like sure knows this. 0:12:16.520 --> 0:12:18.559 You can find this on certain like ebays and certain 0:12:18.600 --> 0:12:22.080 websites where it's like a little mini television that's like 0:12:22.160 --> 0:12:25.080 preloaded every episode of the Simpsons and you turn it 0:12:25.120 --> 0:12:27.760 on and it just randomly goes to an episode I 0:12:27.760 --> 0:12:28.440 started watching. 0:12:28.480 --> 0:12:30.560 So there needs to be a Boy Meets World equivalent 0:12:30.600 --> 0:12:30.840 to that. 0:12:32.600 --> 0:12:34.360 It should be a VHS. You have to pop in, 0:12:34.400 --> 0:12:35.560 you have to rewind you. 0:12:35.600 --> 0:12:40.800 Should have to pay one hunds one season one season 0:12:41.040 --> 0:12:43.080 show even if you're on it. 0:12:43.360 --> 0:12:44.640 Man, I love it. 0:12:44.760 --> 0:12:45.200 I love it. 0:12:46.679 --> 0:12:50.040 We have a lot that we can say about season seven. 0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:52.640 Like we said, we've already kind of like warned you 0:12:52.960 --> 0:12:55.960 how we felt about it. But one of the takeaways 0:12:56.000 --> 0:12:57.920 that you know, I was listening to our last episode 0:12:57.960 --> 0:12:58.400 is we were. 0:12:58.280 --> 0:13:00.840 Talking about how dark season six was. 0:13:01.480 --> 0:13:04.520 You know, for all of the wackiness and the wildness 0:13:04.559 --> 0:13:08.920 that season seven was, it definitely wasn't as trauma filled 0:13:09.040 --> 0:13:11.800 as season six. There were some benefits I think to 0:13:11.960 --> 0:13:15.520 season seven, even if it has a reputation of not 0:13:15.559 --> 0:13:16.240 being very good. 0:13:17.640 --> 0:13:19.520 Were you talking about this very often when we were 0:13:19.559 --> 0:13:19.800 doing it. 0:13:19.840 --> 0:13:22.120 We were like there were just certain things that we 0:13:22.440 --> 0:13:24.439 were listening to this season, and we can tell you 0:13:24.480 --> 0:13:26.679 guys were kind of like doing what you can to 0:13:26.840 --> 0:13:28.800 just get through it. Me you know, having some personal 0:13:28.840 --> 0:13:31.640 health breaks in between, just because it got really rough 0:13:31.640 --> 0:13:34.160 in moments, but like things where it's like we started 0:13:34.200 --> 0:13:36.400 off with the Monkey as well, and we were like, 0:13:36.440 --> 0:13:37.880 what is this monkey episode? 0:13:38.440 --> 0:13:39.600 How far have we fallen? 0:13:39.880 --> 0:13:42.000 And then by like halfway through season seven, you're like, 0:13:42.040 --> 0:13:42.800 I got to miss. 0:13:42.640 --> 0:13:47.280 The Monkey yup. 0:13:49.040 --> 0:13:51.720 Like for even for how wacky episodes like the Truman 0:13:51.760 --> 0:13:54.360 Show episode was in season six, like at least it 0:13:54.679 --> 0:13:57.960 still was trying to teach Eric something. It was pushing 0:13:58.000 --> 0:14:00.360 him too something. A lot of the wackiness and here 0:14:00.480 --> 0:14:03.640 feels very misplaced. And so you know, as as this 0:14:03.760 --> 0:14:06.400 joint of that season six feels, it kind of feels 0:14:06.440 --> 0:14:08.480 like a more cohesive season in a lot of ways 0:14:08.559 --> 0:14:09.440 than this one. 0:14:09.720 --> 0:14:09.920 Yeah. 0:14:10.000 --> 0:14:10.520 Yeah. 0:14:10.679 --> 0:14:14.080 We talked about the idea that season seven, even if 0:14:14.120 --> 0:14:18.600 there were some good moments or good storylines, very rare 0:14:18.679 --> 0:14:21.720 to find a solid episode where it was like, oh, 0:14:21.800 --> 0:14:26.720 both A and B storyline feel you know, grounded. 0:14:26.240 --> 0:14:30.800 In reality at all, or you know, true to character. 0:14:30.960 --> 0:14:33.760 It was always like I kind of like this part, 0:14:33.840 --> 0:14:37.000 but what the f is going on over here? Like 0:14:37.120 --> 0:14:38.120 how was this happening? 0:14:38.360 --> 0:14:38.560 Yeah. 0:14:38.600 --> 0:14:41.160 We also talked about the fact that it's a little 0:14:41.240 --> 0:14:46.720 jarring because the good episodes of season seven aren't necessarily great, 0:14:46.960 --> 0:14:50.480 where the bad episodes of season seven are really back. 0:14:51.400 --> 0:14:52.560 So it's you. 0:14:52.520 --> 0:14:54.600 Know, there are bad episodes of the other seasons too, 0:14:54.600 --> 0:14:55.600 but they were they. 0:14:55.480 --> 0:14:57.520 Weren't horribly bad. 0:14:57.680 --> 0:15:00.040 Where there were some season seven where we finished and 0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:03.560 it was like how how did we even make that episode? 0:15:03.640 --> 0:15:05.880 I mean, and thankfully they're way to. 0:15:05.840 --> 0:15:06.480 Get through the week. 0:15:06.800 --> 0:15:12.080 Yeah, I mean low and the highs are mid, yes, right, yes, yes, 0:15:12.160 --> 0:15:14.200 And it was so it was very strange, and I 0:15:14.240 --> 0:15:15.960 you know, I had this correlation. I don't know if 0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:17.640 I've ever spoken about this before, but I'm a big 0:15:17.640 --> 0:15:18.360 fan of the show. 0:15:18.200 --> 0:15:24.600 Mash what like, yes, so detail Marsh. 0:15:24.520 --> 0:15:26.520 Was a show from the seventies and eighties. 0:15:26.960 --> 0:15:27.080 No. 0:15:27.160 --> 0:15:28.960 So one of the things that Mash did that was 0:15:29.000 --> 0:15:31.920 really interesting that we did in the reverse was that 0:15:32.200 --> 0:15:34.520 it in the early years of Mash, when it was 0:15:34.560 --> 0:15:36.160 a wacky show, it would take like they did a 0:15:36.200 --> 0:15:38.440 storyline where this colonel comes in. They want to get 0:15:38.520 --> 0:15:40.760 him off the front lines because he's so crazy, so 0:15:40.800 --> 0:15:43.320 they take out his appendix and it's a big wacky 0:15:43.520 --> 0:15:46.640 like and then in season ten they do exactly the 0:15:46.640 --> 0:15:48.360 same storyline as a drama. 0:15:49.080 --> 0:15:52.120 Should Hawkeye take out the guy's appendix? No, the other 0:15:52.160 --> 0:15:54.120 doctors fight, Why don't you stab him? And it was 0:15:54.200 --> 0:15:57.080 literally the same storyline. And I get that with like 0:15:57.320 --> 0:16:00.360 Chick Like Me and what a Drag where it's like, 0:16:01.120 --> 0:16:03.000 wait a second, you've got chick like Me? Where you 0:16:03.040 --> 0:16:06.680 take something about real gender issues, and you do it 0:16:06.680 --> 0:16:09.600 in a way that is so important to this not 0:16:09.600 --> 0:16:12.000 only the show, but to the point where Ryder had 0:16:12.120 --> 0:16:15.560 kind of inexperience throughout the week and then you go, well, 0:16:15.560 --> 0:16:17.280 we're going to do kind of the same thing with Eric, 0:16:17.320 --> 0:16:19.640 but now it's going to be a ridiculous rump. And 0:16:19.680 --> 0:16:21.760 so they did the reverse of like what mass shows, 0:16:21.760 --> 0:16:23.680 where it's like you take the same storylines and they 0:16:23.720 --> 0:16:24.640 made them worse. 0:16:25.560 --> 0:16:26.680 So they did. 0:16:26.800 --> 0:16:29.640 There was a couple versions of that in this in 0:16:29.680 --> 0:16:31.520 this season that I thought were very glaring. 0:16:31.640 --> 0:16:32.720 So that was weird to me. 0:16:33.640 --> 0:16:37.400 Well, it just feels like that this season they stopped 0:16:37.400 --> 0:16:40.400 trying to teach the characters lessons in a lot of ways. 0:16:40.720 --> 0:16:42.760 And I don't know if the removal of the classroom 0:16:42.840 --> 0:16:45.120 had a part to play in that, but it's definitely 0:16:45.520 --> 0:16:51.400 a noticeable absence, Like Feenie, just the way the role 0:16:51.400 --> 0:16:53.200 that school played it, all the way that, like every 0:16:53.240 --> 0:16:55.360 Shakespeare play had something to do with what you were 0:16:55.400 --> 0:16:58.160 doing that week, there's no relation to that, which I 0:16:58.240 --> 0:17:00.600 think is you know, for a show that's based in college, 0:17:00.640 --> 0:17:01.520 feels very weird. 0:17:01.840 --> 0:17:06.639 Yeah, we actually had we appreciated you acknowledging the fact 0:17:06.880 --> 0:17:09.080 that all the season and six leads up to Peoenie 0:17:09.119 --> 0:17:11.200 getting married to the Dean and then we never see 0:17:11.200 --> 0:17:14.160 the Dean again anything. The moments like that were it's 0:17:14.240 --> 0:17:18.120 just like, well, in terms of like character continuation, it's 0:17:18.160 --> 0:17:21.920 just like Peoenie just becomes unmarried until like they mentioned 0:17:22.080 --> 0:17:24.919 her once, I believe later in the season because of 0:17:24.920 --> 0:17:27.800 the rumor mill, and you know, there are lots of 0:17:27.840 --> 0:17:30.280 things like that. Another thing with season seven that we 0:17:30.359 --> 0:17:34.080 thought would be interesting is maybe if you reorganized season 0:17:34.119 --> 0:17:37.360 seven it could work because some of the storylines are 0:17:37.359 --> 0:17:40.400 actually pretty interesting with the characters that we talked about 0:17:40.400 --> 0:17:43.560 the fact that we would have liked if Jack got 0:17:43.560 --> 0:17:46.760 cut off from his stepfather at the beginning of the. 0:17:46.720 --> 0:17:54.560 Season, and then maybe yeah, yeah, yeah, roulette idea. 0:17:54.600 --> 0:17:56.920 There's a form of season seven where it's like, if 0:17:56.920 --> 0:17:59.720 you rearrange the episodes, you kind of have something there. 0:18:00.560 --> 0:18:03.640 But well, I mean again, we literally didn't know that 0:18:03.720 --> 0:18:06.200 we were going to get this many episodes, so we 0:18:06.800 --> 0:18:11.879 assumed thirteen and done, and we were thinking that until 0:18:11.880 --> 0:18:13.400 like episode nine or ten. 0:18:13.880 --> 0:18:16.120 What's strange about that is that if you watch those 0:18:16.119 --> 0:18:19.800 first thirteen, it doesn't seem like a show that's leading somewhere. 0:18:19.800 --> 0:18:21.879 It doesn't seem like a show that knows it's ending. 0:18:22.119 --> 0:18:24.480 We asked someone, was it Jeff that we. 0:18:24.400 --> 0:18:26.679 Acted who didn't know unfortunately because he wasn't there for 0:18:26.720 --> 0:18:27.600 most of season seven? 0:18:28.119 --> 0:18:28.560 Was it Jeff? 0:18:28.560 --> 0:18:30.480 We asked someone and they said, no, we knew all 0:18:30.520 --> 0:18:33.160 along that it was going to be twenty two episodes. 0:18:33.240 --> 0:18:35.760 Yeah, which we didn't because I mean the perfect examples. 0:18:35.840 --> 0:18:39.640 Ryder and I were doing our documentary at the end, 0:18:39.840 --> 0:18:42.280 behind the scenes joke documentary, and we got called into 0:18:42.320 --> 0:18:44.719 Michael's office going, you guys have some more time. 0:18:44.800 --> 0:18:46.879 We actually just got our back nine. We're like, okay, great, 0:18:46.920 --> 0:18:48.360 So we thought we were doing thirteen. 0:18:49.240 --> 0:18:52.280
