TV: 'Boy Meets World' Gets Sequel Series, 'Girl Meets World'


As far as TV sequel series are concerned, I really couldn't care less.  But this one intrigues me.  Maybe because Boy Meets World is one of my all-time favorite TV shows.  But let's face it: a lot of TV sequel series never live up to the original (see Saved by the Bell: The New Class).

But, yet, here we are and Disney is in the early stages of developing Girl Meets World, a sequel series all about Cory and Topanga's daughter.  And yes, Ben Savage and Danielle Fishel are in talks to reprise their roles.
The world has met Cory Matthews — is it time now to meet his daughter?

The Disney Channel is in the early stages of developing a Boy Meets World sequel series called Girl Meets World, TVLine has learned exclusively.

Sources say that the cable network is trying to land original series stars Ben Savage and Danielle Fishel to revisit their roles of sweethearts Cory and Topanga, who married before their ABC sitcom ended its seven-season run. The new series would center on their preteen daughter.

Since wrapping Boy, Savage’s TV guest-star gigs have included Bones, Chuck and Without a Trace. Fishel’s post-Boy work includes National Lampoon Presents Dorm Daze and hosting Style Network’s The Dish.
