In preparation for the Girl Meets World premiere Friday, June 27 at 9:45 p.m. ET/PT, ABC Family is hosting Boy Meets World mini-marathons all summer long.
Boy Meets World aired on ABC from 1993 to 2000 and focused on the lives of Cory Matthews (Ben Savage), Shawn Hunter (Rider Strong) and Topanga Lawrence (Danielle Fishel) as the youths grew up managing friends and school. Though a sitcom, the show often targeted heavier storylines like broken families, peer pressure and bullying.
Girl Meets World picks up 14 years later, with Cory and Topanga married, living in New York and raising their two children, five-year-old son Auggie (August Maturo) and tween daughter Riley (Rowan Blanchard). Like Cory and Shawn, Riley and her best friend Maya (Sabrina Carpenter) experience the trials and triumphs of growing up, spending their teenage years at Manhattan’s John Quincy Adams Middle School, where Cory is teaching History.
Via a press release, the mini marathons will air Monday through Fridays from 7:00 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. ET/PT.
