Okay I'm cheating for this as I'm doing two shows that both star a Savage in them:
The Wonder Years (Fred Savage)
Boy Meets World (Ben Savage)
So I know it's almost like comparing Apples and oranges but which show is better?

I'd rather watch C-Span than those two shows.

Boy meets world! ;D I love the sarcasm of Cory's brother Matthew, his best friend Shawn and the never ending story between Topanga and Cory

For once I agree whote heartedly with Hector With so many great shows getting axed before they find their feet or just not getting a chance at being aired at all, what seriosly do eith of these shows have to offer?. |

I feel the Wonder Years was better even though I used to watch Boy Meets World religiously when I was younger.
Why would people watch these shows? Because the Leave it to Beaver family was still popular at this time and the Matthews in Boy Meets World were an updated Cleavers (oooh they tried to be so clever by adding the next door neighbor as a teacher, and making it so out there).
The Wonder Years because it was a melodrama, and people were starting to wonder what the 60's were all about.
Plus the most important part: They appealed to teenagers. It's just like asking why in god's name was Saved By the Bell so popular when it has to be one of the worst shows I have ever seen?

I've never seen "The Wonder Years" so I'll have to lean towards "Boy Meets World" of which I've seen a decent amount. I remember that I liked the Halloween special. Have to agree with what was said about "Saved By The Bell". Upon hearing its themesong, I would turn off the TV.  Killerzzz |

I was fortunate enough to not see SBtB during it's original run but I caught it on reruns and I wanted to gouge my eyes and rip off my ears it was so bad.

For once I agree whote heartedly with Hector That would make it twice in fact. Drama, nostalgia, lots of things. Doesn't make them good, but make them popular. God, just remembering Wonder Years' theme song makes me want to puke. |
