Gonna Stick Together

Boy Meets World stars Ben Savage and Danielle Fishel sat down with Entertainment Weekly and to talk about their new show, Girl Meets World. The two will revisit their BMW characters, Cory and Topanga, in this new series.

In the interview, they chat about their first conversation about Girl Meets World with each other, where their characters are now, reuniting with each other, the casting of Rowan Blanchard, and so much more. Highlights can be found below.

On their first conversation about Girl Meets World: “FISHEL: It started actually in a text. It was really cute because I had already talked to Michael and I didn’t know if Ben had already talked to Michael. Then one night I got a text from Ben that just said, ‘Hey what do you think about being my wife again?’ And I wrote him back and I said, ‘Nothing would make me happier than to call you my husband five days a week.’
SAVAGE: I think Danielle and I were pretty much on the same page from the beginning. I think for us, we just wanted to make sure that it was something special and something that honored the past show.”

On where their characters are now: “FISHEL: I believe they’re living in New York. They have new careers. Topanga has made her way through law school and you know, Cory, is a seventh grade teacher following in the footsteps of Mr. Feeny, which I think some people will be surprised by because as much as Mr. Feeny and Cory cared about each other and loved each other, Mr. Feeny was sometimes Cory’s nemesis.
SAVAGE: I think it’s very poetic that [Cory] would end up as a teacher. It fits in nicely with how we ended the last show and how Mr. Feeny was his role model and his mentor throughout his life. It’s a nice transition.”
