“I am grateful to everyone at Disney Channel for the opportunity to reach my favorite audience, which has always been kids,” said show creator Michael Jacobs. “Girl Meets World is a new show for a new generation that will be rooted in the same kind of honest, comedic storytelling about coming of age and the importance of family and friendship that made Boy Meets World so popular.”
Disney exec Adam Bonnett said in statement, “Boy Meets World and its story of adolescent self discovery resonated with an entire generation of tweens.”
He added, “In the same way audiences fell in love with Cory Matthews and Topanga Lawrence, we look forward to introducing our viewers to their daughter Riley Matthews in Girl Meets World and building a memorable connection with a whole new generation of fans.”
