With Ben Savage’s recurring appearance as Matthew, the son of Judd Hirsch’s character, in the comedy series Dear John (1988), Savage made his network television debut. Furthermore, in the NBC series A Family for Joe (1990), he portrayed one of the orphans who cleverly tricked Robert Mitchum’s character into becoming their guardian.
However, Savage’s portrayal of Cory Matthews is his most famous and well-known part. He grabbed audiences with his lovable performance as Cory Matthews, a part that became synonymous with his name, over the seven-year run of Boy Meets World.
Notably, his brother Fred appeared as a lecherous college professor seeking Cory’s fiancée in one episode of the series.
In the following season, Fred took on the role of director, showcasing his talent behind the camera as he directed Bennett and the rest of the cast in “Family Trees,” an episode in which Shawn (played by Rider Strong) discovers that his biological mother is not the woman who raised him.
Savage has dabbled in television movies in addition to his television work. Notably, he co-starred with Lindsay Wagner in She Woke Up (1992), and he played a young adolescent in McDonald’s Family Theatre Presents: Aliens for Breakfast (1995), in which his breakfast cereal figure comes to life, resulting in an exciting adventure.
