‘Boy Meets World’ Sequel Is In The Works


Like many of mah fellow Amurricans, I stayed up way, way, WAY too late last night. And not in my usual fashion of realizing that OH, it’s two in the morning after hours of click-dicking around on the Internet or watching like, five episodes of Storage Wars in a row.

No, I was up and I was AMPED. And a little tipsy. There was shrieking, crying and all sorts of commie pinko liberal gay marriage loving fist pumps and imaginary football spiking.

Basically take the spirit and emotion of this:

But make it look mostly like this:

That was me. For kind of awhile.

Then I woke up at 6 am this morning worried that I’d hallucinated the whole thing and had to get up and check the news. Which is when I learned that no, I hadn’t been dreaming BUT ANOTHER SUPER IMPORTANT RE-ELECTION HAD HAPPENED: CORY & TOPANGA! Disney is working on a sequel to beloved 90s sitcom Boy Meets World! At least, beloved by ME, because ZOMG TGIF WAS MY JAM.

 Boy Meets World Sequel Is In The Works

FOUR MORE SEASONS!

I was unable to find any confirmation that Ben Savage (BOY) and Danielle Fishel (WORLD, aka Topanga) will be reprising their roles. But we do know that the show will tap into the new parenting concerns of its presumed demographic and focus on Cory and Topanga’s preteen daughter Riley and her “edgy” friend Maya. I think this tells us everything that we need to know at the moment about everything and anything. Kind of like that Disney show Dog With A Blog, which also exists. Simple. To the point. Allows us all to not think very hard about things.

And I really appreciate that, because you guys, I am so hungover and don’t feel like typing anymore.

    awwwwwwwwwww………. this gave me a moment of “They totally can’t have a 13 year old daughter can they?!” and then I realised it ended in 2000. I knew they got married towards the end, but I also remember not really watching the show after they started college. So in my head the show continued for a lot more time than it actually did. Would totally watch the new version! And may have to go hunting for the original..

    I’m not ashamed to say I had actual tears of joy well up in my eyes when I first read this news. Please let it happen!

    I remember being so pissed at my parents for naming me something so boring when this show first aired. So…when is the Step By Step revival set to premiere??
