She was legit about to sacrifice Shawn to summon the devil to earth.

They had an earlier episode where the entire cast (and Jennifer Love Hewitt) got murdered, but that was a dream. >_>

this show was just kind of weird come to think of it <_>

I never watched GMW. Was it just typical Disney sitcom shenanigans? Or did they ever actually try to veer into the very special episode soap opera that BMW became?

its hard for me to imagine a modern Disney show that writes off a major character by putting them in critical condition after a motorcycle accident, or have the school think the male and female leads had sex in the AV room, or anything that was going on with Shawns character. >_>

I never saw an entire episode but I was sometimes in the room when my little sister was watching it. I think the characters were younger is part of it. They were in Jr high instead of high school I think. But also yea it aired on Disney Channel so it was pretty tame

It was absolute trash and everything was so overdramatic, they tried so hard to tackle heavy subject, but it felt more like a mockery than anything. Like one episode attempts to talk about Asperger's, but they just mention that the girl may have it, and never address it anymore. Another episode had their entire friend group broken up over a set of stairs. It was just bad.

Sabrina Carpenter was the best part of the show.

This is awful.

one episode of girl meets world tried to tackle religion
turns out that farkle is an athiest and the blonde girl was more agnostic. i always get maya and riley mixed up.
anyway the message should have been that you should respect other peoples beliefs
but the message was instead you should guilt your friends into following your beliefs

From my understanding, GMW was consistent with the middle school and early high school seasons of BMW from a tone and content perspective. The big difference is that as a show on ABC, BMW was able to age with its audience. GMW was stuck on a channel where the audience is perpetually 13 and younger. That kinda kills any chance of the show maturing.

im really just using Disney as shorthand for the Disney channel, specifically, its original content.

they normally dont have any problem airing syndicated stuff, but most of the stuff they make themselves is a lot safer, which is odd, but whatever. >_>

and some of these other replies are a bit depressing. <_<. Sounds like they wanted to do some things but didnt want to (or couldnt) really commit.

was the religion episode just atheism vs agnosticism? None of the Abrahamic religions showed up? <_<

for the most part yes
it was very similar to the first couple seasons of boy meets world
but even back then boy meets world could tackle bigger issues better like the time cory didnt care to learn about history cause the bad stuff doesnt exist anymore. only to come home to see erics one off girlfriend crying because someone was screaming racist slurs at her for being Asian at the mall which taught cory that these things arent just in the past.

girl meets world occasionally tried to tackle serious issues like that but they never did it with grace

DJ Tanner was the witch that wanted to summon satan haha.

And the Jennifer Love Hewitt episode was probably my favorite of the whole series. Legitimately creepy when I was a youngster and also pretty funny.

I was watching it the other day, but its a pretty bad episode so I skipped most of it. Even though its one of my favorite shows ever they had plenty of awful episodes. The last season in particular. Eric is barely able to function at that point lol

Girl Meets World was atrocious. I still cant believe just how bad they made that show. They literally had a dance number with a talking tater tot

Yes and no. That whole over the top wacky Disney channel vibe makes GMW different from early BMW. Most of the antics and stories in early BMW were believable things kids that age would do. The school wasn't just a backdrop for crazy adventures. Also like others mentioned, GMW attempted to do more serious episodes but had no idea what to with the plot once they brought up the topic. The episodes always just petered out.

I will say, GMW as a whole seemed to get a little better in S2. Still wasn't great though. Felt to me like they wanted to break out of that Disney mold but couldn't. Then it got cancelled.

Remember how bad the retcons were in BMW?

Otherwise it was a great show. I google George Feeny's actor every now and then to see if he's still alive he is.

The only reason to watch GMW is to see the cameos of former BMW cast (outside of the regulars Cory and Topanga)

Topangas dad has to be the worst one. Three different actors all with wildly different mannerisms.

They had one new dad for one episode and then a brand new one the episode after that.

rachel was the only character in boy meets world who didnt get to come back for an episode
there was one planned for her but it never came to be because the show got cancelled

i mean rachel was like the last addition to the original boy meets world cast and was really forgettable so it wasnt a big loss or anything
angela's actress didnt like her episode cause she felt like it was taking one of the most positive interracial romances from the 90s and stomping all over its memory

Eli, who was Turners friend and the media arts teacher in season 3 didnt come back either, though I know hes not particularly well remembered

i usually rewatch BMW about once a year, and I can honestly say the show is a whole lot better when you focus only on the high school seasons, 2-5, skipping the first season and the college years

eli was only ever a recurring character. he was never credited as a series regular
everyone who was credited as a series regular made at least 1 appearance in girl meets world except for rachel
cory's younger sister morgan has 2 different actresses in boy meets world and GMW still got both of them to reprise the role

they had a scene with morgan

I stopped watching mid season 2 so guess I never saw this. That was a fun idea for them to do.
