Mr. Feeny, played by William Daniels, was the neighbor and teacher in Boy Meets World, the sitcom that ran from 1993 to 2000. Eric Matthews, the goofy older brother played by Will Friedle, would lean out and bellow Feeny's name in a long, exasperated yell whenever he was in trouble. Clips of the call circulated on soundboards and meme compilations in the 2000s and 2010s, becoming shorthand for desperately needing an adult. Nostalgia for nineties sitcoms keeps it in rotation.
