    This witless and pointless sequel series to the so-so 90's version of boy meets world has one good moment, the cameo appearance of mr. feeny, that's it, the rest are just completely tired, boring and harpless, roward does have any talent, the rest of the cast is utterly wasted, the teleplay is a mess, the script are such a bore and the plot is non existent, this is an unfunny waste of timeThis witless and pointless sequel series to the so-so 90's version of boy meets world has one good moment, the cameo appearance of mr. feeny, that's it, the rest are just completely tired, boring and harpless, roward does have any talent, the rest of the cast is utterly wasted, the teleplay is a mess, the script are such a bore and the plot is non existent, this is an unfunny waste of time

    Even for a kids' show, Girl Meets World turns out to be ridiculously cheesy, contrived, and unrealistic. The messages it gives may be the most positive aspect of the show that has garnered it praise to begin with, but the delivery of the message is what falls completely flat.

The messages it gives may be the most positive aspect of the show that has garnered it praise to begin with, but the delivery of the message is what falls completely flat. The young characters are unrealistic in that they dress unlike their age (13/14 year olds wearing heeled boots? Please) and act as though they were "mature". The realistic part of Boy Meets World is that Corey was immature and grew to be mature with the lessons he learned, whereas these girls annoyingly self-teach themselves by saying the lesson they learned, making it all the more corny and contrived. And then these same girls are incredibly disrespectful to Corey, Riley's father, and act disrespectful in his classroom, making him appear as an incompetent teacher. The only funny part is that Farkle seems to be the only character that realizes Corey doesn't really teach but revolves his classroom around two students, which is silly and unprofessional.… Expand

    I loved the show "Boy Meets World" when I was a kid. This equivalent show "Girl Meets World" is not what I was expecting. I waited months to see the hilarious dialect performed on "Girl Meets World" as well as "Boy Meets World", sadly this was not in place. So far in the premiere, it is very cheesy, as how I imagined Disney would make it. The plot is boring, the acting made me cry, andI loved the show "Boy Meets World" when I was a kid.

So far in the premiere, it is very cheesy, as how I imagined Disney would make it. The plot is boring, the acting made me cry, and there isn't enough Topanga. Just like Disney would portray it as cheesy,sappy, and stupid. Some Easter Eggs in the show referring to "Boy Meets World" is "Ok". But since the show is made by Disney, I believe it will have no potential, lack of story, and no secret sexual jokes as I enjoyed in the series "Boy Meets World". The good thing about the show, is that Mr. Feeny appeared. I do have to give credit to the show, because its the first episode and its just letting us know who the rest of the characters are. In conclusion, -Bad Things, Not enough Topanga, No sexual jokes(Or funny jokes), horrible acting, horrible script, made by Disney. -Good Things,Mr.Feeny returning. In honesty this made me tear up a bit, knowing that the sequal of my favorite TV series, "Boy Meets Word", is coming to an end.… Expand

    An embarrassingly high number of children in the US come to school and go to bed hungry. Child hunger is a serious matter.
    First episode, school cafeteria scene , 3 children get a tray , fill it with food , talk for a while, and dispose of the food untouched.

    Are you serious... This is not 1950.

    I had hope for this show even though the pilot wasn't that great. After watching the first season I'm sad to say that it's terrible. It's probably fine for young kids between the ages of 8 to 11 but for fans of Boy meets world it falls short. The episodes make little sense.

The episodes make little sense. Each episode starts off stating some problem or mission needing to be accomplished. It then leads to a series of random events that don't really go well together. Finally it ends with some big teaching moment that was blown up a lot bigger than it should have been. There is little comedy and the acting is over the top like watching a bad school play where everyone over acts. The plots of each episode have very poor story telling and aren't realistic to real life. I say if you have elementary school kids they may still enjoy this but adults and teens will be disappointed.… Expand

    One of the most insulting and pandering shows I've ever seen. The characters are completely unrealistic and unrelatable, the acting is wooden, annoying and awkward to watch, the writing is about what you would expect from Disney Channel: very on the nose sort of talking down to its audience and explaining every little thing with no subtlety. Tons of pointless, embarrassing fan-service andOne of the most insulting and pandering shows I've ever seen.

Tons of pointless, embarrassing fan-service and very boring predictable stories that don't try anything new. If you like Boy Meets World do not watch this! I cannot stress that enough. Don't make the same mistake I did. Because this show is just awful. The only reason I give it a 1/10 is because I don't believe in giving things a 0/10. If I did you best believe this garbage would have it.… Expand

    This is, without a doubt, a show for and about teens.

    The name recognition notwithstanding, there’s precious little to distinguish Girl Meets World from a parade of similarly themed Disney Channel live-action series, built around life on the cusp of puberty, featuring stars slightly older than the girl demo apt to watch.

    Girl Meets World is a perfectly pleasant Disney Channel show.
