I wonder how the students at Kevin Arnold’s middle school are feeling right now.

A big reason for that was Fred Savage and Jason Hervey were allegedly sexually harassing females on set; making it an uncomfortable work environment.

ABC canceled the show mid-season 6 and they rushed to wrap it up.

Wait, what? But they were just kids at the time.

Lolz they aren't talking about season 1. Jason Hervey wasn't even a teenager by the end of the show.

Didn't a similar issue occur in the reboot eith Savage as well?

Nah their ratings just sucked. I think the original had a mix of pending lawsuits coupled with actor/actress compensation. It was easier for them to shut it down.

It's a shame. I did a rewatch a year ago and you can see that they were rushing for a conclusion toward the final episodes.

Norma becomes a working woman for a tech start-up. Jack runs his own furniture business. Wayne all of sudden becomes a responsible adult.

As long as there isn't a "Jr." at the end it's still cool.

It really is a shitty state of affairs that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is named Robert F. Kennedy.

When they included 6th grade. Jr high was grades 7-8, middle school was 6-8.

Yep., This used to be a thing.

In South Bend Indiana, I was in 6th grade in a school that was 1st-6th. Wild being in 6th grade and seeing a bunch of 6 year olds on the other side of the building.

Also from that area, initially went to school as an ed major. I recall doing observations in 6th grade classrooms that were part of an elementary school vs those that had already integrated into a middle school and it was night and day how different the kids were, simply based on their environment.
