George Feeny (William Daniels) is a constant mentor to Cory and his friends. He first appears on the show as their school teacher, principal, and neighbor, and eventually toward the later years, their college professor. He later marries the Dean of Pennbrook, Lila Bolander (played by William Daniels' real-life wife Bonnie Bartlett). Originally, Mr. Feeny tried to keep a traditional teacher-student relationship with the other characters. This proved impossible, and in the series finale, Shawn says, Oh, you know we're your favorites . Cory then adds, C'mon Feeny. You haven't even spoken to another student in seven years! At this final moment in the show, it is revealed that Mr. Feeny's care for Cory, Shawn, Topanga, and Eric in the last seven years is what the quotes, lessons, and devotion toward others in the show revolve around.
