Let's make this birthday one to remember.

74 years old (Born on October 20, 1950)

Happy Birthday, William Russ! From guiding Cory and Eric through life's hilarious ups and downs as Alan Matthews on "Boy Meets World," you've given us countless laughs, heartfelt moments, and timeless fatherly wisdom. Who could forget your classic dad lectures or the unforgettable grocery store antics? Your portrayal made parenting look both relatable and endlessly entertaining.

Wishing you a birthday filled with joy—and hopefully fewer teenage shenanigans than Alan had to handle! May this year bring continued success, happiness, and perhaps another iconic TV moment that reminds us all why you're everyone's favorite sitcom dad. Cheers to you!
