I Never Sang For My Legal Guardian - S3-E20
Trivia: Mr. Feeny makes a reference to Eric going for a ride inside a clothes dryer when he was in 5th grade. Will Friedle said this actually happened to him when he was 4 or 5 years old.

The Grass is Always Greener - S3-E12
Trivia: When Eric is asking the teachers to cut him some slack, according to Will Friedle, the cadence with which he says the line is meant to be a Jerry Seinfeld impression.
Trivia: At the very end of the episode, Eric sinks all 15 billiard balls as well as the cue ball. This was achieved on the very first take. Will Friedle almost ruined the take with his surprised look. According to him, the person who set up the balls in such a manner to make the shot possible told him that the cue ball wasn't necessarily supposed to go in as well. Supposedly, it was a world record for the most billiard balls sunk in one shot for a television or film production.
Trivia: Aaron Metchik, who plays one of the bullies in this episode, was previously a pen pal to Rider Strong when both actors played the role of Gavroche in stage productions of Les Miserables on opposite ends of the country (Strong in San Francisco and Metchik in Washington DC).
Trivia: Will Friedle was forced by the network to cut his hair ahead of filming this episode, as they felt it was getting too long. Director Jeff McCracken knew how upset Friedle was about this, so he went home and cut his own hair to make him feel better.

Trivia: Will Friedle had a huge crush on Staci Keanan from Step By Step and begged the producers to get her on the show. They ended up putting her in this episode, but much to Will's chagrin, he didn't get to be part of the episode's Disney World plot, and thus didn't work with her.
Answer: Topanga's middle name is never specified. Considering her sister's name is Nebula Stop-the-war Lawrence, Topanga's is probably something equally unusual.
