Eric was actually a better written character in the earlier seasons. He's still a dimwit, but it's much more grounded and believable than the whole Plays With Squirrels stuff.

They didn't know what to do with his character basically his character in the earlier seasons wasn't really going anywhere so they let him be himself in later seasons. He also has anxiety and a seizure disorder. I love both sides of Eric

[@thedefinitionisthis]

I loved how they made him crazier toward the latter half of the series. The producers and even Will Friedle copped to it, that it just made for better comedy. The guy clearly had a natural talent for that kind of comedy. Might as well use it to their full advantage. And even in his crazier years, they still managed to have be layered; being an idiot-savant and like previously said: the glue that held everyone together.

It's amazing how much more believable Alan and Amy are as parents, compared to Cory and Topenga

[@michaelbyrne5606]

Ehhh, believable yes...but often they were pretty passive in their own children's lives. So when bigger announcements/problems came, it felt to them like the rug was being pulled under. The further and more drastic Cory and Eric went as their own men, the less Alan felt he could relate to them...and even when he got involved, he tended to get evasive/bossy out of habit. Which actually made their few resonances later on all the more touching. GMW has the benefit of Cory' and Topanga's careers being both tied to their parenting. They may project their pasts from time to time, but their approach clearly has inspired a small network of introspective and supportive friends through Riley's intelligence and optimism...one that's actively worked through their own interpersonal hurdles rather than just "letting things be".
