There is an odd sort of poetry to “Girl Meets World” ending on the same day as a Presidency. If you take politics aside for a moment, the reality is that there is a group of people out there who feel a sense of great sadness over seeing a major part of their lives end. […]
Tonight’s episode of “Girl Meets World” (entitled “Girl Meets Sweet Sixteen”) is the penultimate installment of the show, at least on the Disney Channel. Given that the finale is so close, it only makes some sense that the writers went into this with the idea of bringing you some closure for some characters and relationships. […]
The third season of “Girl Meets World” has given you many an emotional episode over the course of its run, but at the same time, we have a hard time thinking that any of them were as emotional in some ways as “World Meets Girl” was when it aired on the Disney Channel on Friday […]
The best episodes of “Girl Meets World” are often the meaningful ones, but specifically, they are the ones that figure out a way to include meaning in a rather unexpected way. They are morally inspiring, but simultaneously clever and sharp. You can be all of these things, and you can be them wonderfully. While imperfect, […]
Do we have a new contender for funniest “Girl Meets World” episode this season? After making it through “Girl Meets Hollyworld,” we’re starting to think that way. While there were a few meaningful moments throughout this episode and also an important message at the end of it, we would say that pound for pound, this […]
Tonight on “Girl Meets World,” things got awkward. As a matter of fact, “Girl Meets Her Monster” may be the most awkward episode of the show we’ve seen through three seasons. Almost the entire half-hour was spent in the thick of a nasty argument between Riley and Topanga, one that spiraled out of control from the […]
With their annual “Girl Meets World of Terror” episode on Friday night, the Disney Channel’s “Girl Meets World” continued their tradition of thinking outside of the box. Yet, at the same time they may not have thought far enough outside the box for our personal liking. This episode focused mostly on the subject of what would happen […]
If there was a song that perfectly suited Friday night’s “Girl Meets World” episode, it is the classic Rolling Stones hit “You Can’t Always Get What You Want.” Riley Matthews is still young, and she’s living in an era where it is so easy for people to have their dreams come true. There are a […]
After a brief hiatus, “Girl Meets World” returned to the Disney Channel on Friday night with an episode that was certainly old-school. It was self-contained, had a little humor to it, but for the most part was about a message of cultural acceptance and gratitude that you don’t often see with some other shows on the […]
There was something altogether jarring about Friday night’s “Girl Meets World” episode, mostly in that in one way or another, almost every element of the half-hour felt somehow off in comparison to what we’ve seen in episodes in the past. Take, for example, the Farkle character. Is the show trying to humanize him, or take […]
