Could ‘Girl Meets World’ season 4 air on Freeform, Netflix, anywhere else?

Girl Meets World -

Tonight, the bad news officially came down courtesy of the Disney Channel that despite having itself a great run for three years and a ton of attention from many fans, “Girl Meets World” is officially over. The network has canceled the series, starring Rowan Blanchard and Sabrina Carpenter, and that the upcoming three episodes are going to be the last ones to come on the air.

Or … are they? Before we dive into this story further, we want to make it clear that the statement from the show’s writers on the end of the show sounded definitive, and there doesn’t appear to be any sign that the show is being shopped elsewhere. We don’t want to create false hope or mislead you. Instead, we just want to look at if the show could air somewhere else in the event that another network or provider out there was interested. Here are some of the possible suitors off the top of our head that someone should certainly put feelers out there to.

Freeform – It’s the most logical destination given that they do half-hour comedy already, and they are meant for a slightly older audience. It feels almost like the perfect evolution for Riley and Maya, as they get older, to air their stories on an older-skewing network. They’re also owned by the same parent company, so there’s synergy there.

ABC – This is a real longshot given that if the ratings weren’t good enough for the Disney Channel, they probably wouldn’t be good enough for the network that originally aired “Boy Meets World.” Still, pondering over it as a Friday-night show, possibly in the summer, is interesting.

Netflix – This is the destination for so many revivals these days, and they also stream past “Girl Meets World” seasons. We do think that there could be some possibilities here given how well “Fuller House” has done, but at the same time you would have to go out and re-market the show all over again. We’re not sure they are willing to do that.

In theory, there are other possibilities like Hulu, Nickelodeon, MTV, and elsewhere, but so many of them feel like they have no real skin in the game right now in terms of a studio connection or an audience. If there is any hope at all, it’s probably with the three networks / services above.
