Girl Meets World (2014–2017)
9/10
Fourteen Years Later, It's Girl's Turn to Meet the World!
18 January 2015
When I first heard that Boy Meets World was going to have a spin-off show on how life is going for the Matthews family 14 years later, I was overjoyed. Watching Cory and Topanga on Boy Meets World was a huge pastime for me, especially when I was a freshman in High School. I was also eager for the introduction to Cory and Topanga's children, Riley and Auggie; as well as Riley's classmates which include her best friend Maya, her friend from Texas in Lucas, and her brainy friend Farkle. I really like Maya and Farkle's personalities, while Lucas can be bland yet still possibly redeemable (in terms of developing into a more interesting personality, that is).

The best part about this show thus far is the fact that it has already had a lot of characters from the original Boy Meets World make appearances (and we will see even more of those characters in the episodes to come!), yet this show has stayed in its own identity and hasn't tried to copy Boy Meets World, though some episodes have been somewhat similar to the early Boy Meets World episodes. I also like that Girl Meets World doesn't follow the "tween" concept that so many Disney shows since 2004 have modeled themselves after. It's really nice for once to see a family show that people of all ages can enjoy. Here's to Girl Meets World, and to hoping it has a bright future!

Best of luck on your mission to meet the world, Riley!
