The world of "Boy Meets World" is getting bigger. 

Twelve years after the original series ended, The Disney Channel is reportedly developing a "Boy Meets World" sequel series called "Girl Meets World." The show will focus on the adventures of the pre-teen daughter of the original's Cory and Topanga.

According to TVLine, "Boy" stars Ben Savage and Danielle Fishel are in talks with Disney to reprise their roles as high school sweethearts-turned-spouses Cory and Topanga. 

"Boy Meets World" aired on ABC from 1993 to 2000. At the series' end, Savage was 20 years old, and Fisher was 19. 

Savage has since appeared on several TV shows, including "Bones" and "Chuck," while Fishel appeared in "National Lampoon Presents Dorm Daze" and acted as the host of Style Network’s "The Dish" until cancellation in 2011.

    I just hope it will be more like the early seasons and not like the corny sopa opera that it became later on. (Starting with the episode in which Shawn joins a cult.)

    I would definitely watch just to see Cory and Topanga again. Loved the show as a kid and just recently rewatched the series from beginning on DVD. Mr Feeny is currently a guest on greys anatomy

    Yes heard about this via Deadline. I think it would fit better on ABC if they are trying to revive their TGIF lineup or maybe ABC FAmily

    I hope they go through with this. I used to love watching Boy Meets World. The connection between Cory and Topanga was like the conection Bella and Edward have. And even though I am a mom myself, I still watch the repeats once in a while. If they do make a sequel to Boy Meets World, I would definitley love to see Eric. He was toooooo freakin funny. =)
