SynopsisEdit

In their third year at John Adams High, Cory, Topanga, and Shawn face a series of new problems and a myriad of hijinks! Eric must decide what to do with his life, and Cory & Co. must just find a way to get by.

EricEdit

Eric's first year out of high school was a rocky one. Rejected from every college he applied to, Eric had to find something to occupy himself. The idea of retaking the SATs and trying for college again dogged him for the season, as Feeny urged him over and over again to go to college. He also worked at his father's nature store, but was fired after a mishap involving $5000 and a bear. Finally, Eric retook the SATs and did much better, finally getting into the nearby Pennbrook University.

ShawnEdit

Shawn also faced a brand new scenario: a full family. With his parents back together for the first time in over a year, Shawn's home life was looking better than ever. Despite this, Shawn constantly faced an identity crisis involving attending college. Shawn made it through, though, and continues his happy-go-lucky ways.

Cory and TopangaEdit

Perhaps stronger than ever, Cory and Topanga faced many obstacles in season 4. Topanga comforted Cory's insecurities about his physical appearance, Cory managed to be there for Topanga for her Sweet Sixteen, and they managed to beat their hormones and do the right thing. Most significantly, they survived Topanga's move to Pittsburgh when Topanga's Aunt Pru took Topanga in for her final year of high school.
