For those who are wondering about the story, from the trailer I got that: Jodie is now popular for some reason. That mean girl who wanted the Swedish guy in the first movie is the only person in Jodie’s life that’s still teasing her. That Swedish guy is there and he wants Jodie back. Short milk crate man and Jodie are not together despite that kiss in the first movie. Short milk crate man has to *gasp* develop an actual identity outside of being obsessed with Jodie. Jodie is in a musical and meets yet another guy who wants her meaning she has 3 guys after her the whole movie. And there’s some message about how “the biggest monsters we face are the ones in our own head” or something. So yeah. Jodie is popular, she’s only got one mean person in her life, she’s apparently a talented actress, and she’s got 3 boyfriends. I have no idea what the conflict in this film is supposed to be.

I was disappointed by the episode where Farkle gets tested for Autism, and everyone acts as if it's some awful disease, when he was acting fine with the possible diagnosis. At least they had a realistic portrayal with Smackle.

I've been waiting for someone to bring this up. I honestly choose to pretend the ending of the Girl Meets I Am Farkle episode didn't happen. In my head, Farkle is autistic, and it was cowardly of them to not let him be. I also didn't like how they continued to use Smackle as a punchline for most of her scenes, especially considering there isn't a lot of autism representation in the media for girls as is. It felt very odd.

The main problem with this show was it being on Disney , so there couldn't be any *REAL* conflict or challenging situations. Boy meets world dealt with puberty, hormones, sexual attraction, bullying, alcohol abuse, abusive parents, broken homes, parents being laid off, challenges of school , failing in life, feeling lost in the world... one of the best seasons wasnt even about Corey , it was Eric being lost in the world when he was done high school and didn't have good enough grades for College right away - Girl meets world had NONE of this. There was no challenge for these kids that wasn't summed up with ham-fisted lines and terrible dialogue. Though... Danielle Fishel is still looking absolutely amazing.

It spoke of horrible stereotypes about autistic people not being able to feel love or empathy like "normal" people. and at the end of the episode Autism is not treated like a thing to be normalized, it treats it as not having it as a bullet dodged.

Yes. That episode is actually hated in the Autism community and caused a lot of damage and upset to people because of how they all acted like it's the worst thing ever

Maya should’ve been his biological daughter with Angela, they had the chance of fixing their relationship by saying Shawn and Angela got back together soon after the end of BMW, got happily married and had biracial kids, after everything they went through they deserved that. But no the writers decided to retcon their relationship and why they broke up by vilifying Angela and saying she broke Shawn’s heart and never talked to him again when in BMW it was a mutual decision and they only did it because she was about to move away for a year or so, they did it to try and convince us she was bad for him because they intended to match-make Shawn with Maya’s mother Katie just because.

The thing is that this show always tiptoed around issues but never actually showed them. Take Maya for instance. She's supposed to be raised by a single mom who is a waitress or something, but she has super expensive clothes and is always free to hang out. She was always talking about how her life is hard, but never really showed it being so hard (Cuz you know... Disney). As opposed to Shawn who they showed all the way. And Riley omfg, that girl was so freaking annoying, no 12 year old girl is that naive.

I’m really sick and tired of the media portraying autistic kids as being weird and obnoxious outcasts that nobody ever wants hanging out with and who can’t do anything for themselves and ate just overgrown toddlers that can’t even tie their own shoes. It’s just so ableist and it’s seriously disgusting. I mean if you took out all mentions of autism in this particular episode and then replaced all mentions of the disorder with something like diabetes and have lines like “You can’t have diabetes! You’re normal!”, how do you think people would react to *that* ? They would be pretty angry and upset and rightly so because having diabetes doesn’t mean you aren’t a normal person. Look I’m fine if some sitcom talks about autism in a very respectful way that isn’t patronizing or calling us weird and “not normal.” Treat us like the human beings with actual thoughts and emotions just like everyone else who just happens to think outside of the box. Stop trying to say we aren’t “normal” just because our brains function differently than yours.

Dude, Boy Meets World was so well-written. It was philosophical at times, but always playful and portrayed the young characters and their parents well.

What episode

The big difference between the shows comes from the fact that they aired on different Networks which means the production and writing was entirely different. Boy Meets World and its 7 seasons all aired originally on ABC not Disney Channel (Disney picked up ABC in the middle of the shows run and Disney only ran reruns). This allowed the writers and producers to create a great show that was for preteens and teenagers that dealt with serious issues, as well as some light hearted stuff. Meanwhile Girl Meets World was produced by Disney. Disney has shown that when it comes to producing their own original shows, they do pretty well, however, when they’re producing and writing remakes of something else they do poorly. Girls Meets World was an okay show but it could never stand up to its predecessor. Disney didn’t really understand what made Boy Meets World special. Everything for the most part in Boy Meets world feels natural. The lessons they learned and experiences they went through felt genuine. Meanwhile in Girl Meets World almost everything is given to them and almost nothing is ever earned. For example look at the teaching styles from Mr. Feeny and Corey as teachers. Mr. Feeny would try his best to teach Cory, and Eric for different reasons. Cory was being a bad student on purpose for the sake of Shawn at times (not wanting him to feel left out) and his own developed laziness because of this. Feeny new Corey was smart if he just tried instead of wanting to fit-in. Feeny would try understanding and tough love with Eric because he knew Eric’s laziness was out of fear of not making it in the real world. He knew Eric could be great but only if Eric let go of his fear and stop making excuses for himself. Mr. Feeny was genuinely trying to help but not overstep his boundaries. Once Cory becomes a teacher, he pretty much force-feeds whatever lessons about life he can into the lesson plan for his history class. It’s gets to a point where his own students call it out. That made it seem like Disney was making fun of Mr. Feeny as if he did the same thing. This shows that the Disney producers never understood the original show. That’s why they should have just left it alone or have it Produced on FreeForm

@wardarcade7452

Agree with you but I'm not sure it the force-feeding was all Disney's fault! Also, they openly DID make fun of and show contempt for of Mr. Feeny on this show and with no one apologizing- ever!

Let’s face it, nobody *wants* to be on the spectrum. It’s a medical condition that has baggage like anything else. I think it’s appropriate for people to hope that their friend doesn’t have a certain condition. It’s not really that different than hoping someone doesn’t have cancer. That doesn’t mean we treat people with medical conditions poorly, but it’s okay to hope your loved ones are healthy.

6:56 this little shit is the real life equivalent of mineta from my hero academia, literally the FIRST 2 seconds of this boy's dialogue made me want to choke my lights out

Riley's dialogue made me want to muffle myself. And Maya had so much potential as a character they could've dug deep on her absent father and living in middle class with a mom who cant always pay attention to her cuz it's just her, but no, she thinks not doing homework is a personality trait

Well, that's how some kids ,and specifically teens can predictably be

I remember watching an episode where Sabrina's character Maya was doing better in school wasn't getting detention all the time and by the end of the episode the "moral lesson" was that Maya was changing into Riley and they were MAD about it. Like shouldn't you have friends that inspire you to be better? Maya is Riley inspiration. Yet when Riley is being one for Maya it equates to an identity crisis? The only thing that good that came out of the show is Sabrina Carpenter getting her start in the industry. She's way to talented for Disney. The episode is called "Girl meets triangle"

It reminds me of when they made Bella Thorne's character in Shake it Up have dyslexia in one episode, create a whole bunch of drama, then never mention it again in the show run. They treated her diagnosis like some huge secret/ scandal as well when it was eventually revealed.

Ableism is extremely hurtful and causes harm no matter who the target is. If you substituted Farkle being afraid he’s on the spectrum with something like him being afraid of having diabetes and keep everyone saying that he’s “normal” and acting like having diabetes is the worst thing ever, you know people would have rioted immediately.

⁠@@musiclover_kb4913that doesn’t make this episode less awful, if Smackle was the one who was actually autistic she should have been the one who talked about it to their classmates, not Farkle, it’s again that situation of a neurotypical person explaining to other NTs how it’s like to live with autism, but they still talk about it as if it’s a bad thing as if it’s something to be ashamed of, as if she would be happier if she was more like them. Even the way they portray the diagnosis is awful, they talk as if having autism or not is something that you can tell by a physical exam or something and it isn’t, they say Farkle had all the signs of being autistic but then they say he isn’t, and it’s said that Smackle was diagnosed when she was 5 and Farkle was being tested by doctors and all during his teenage years and the thing is that’s the exact opposite, it’s usually easier for autistic boys to be diagnosed at an early age because the way it’s done is usually more adapted to the signs boys show but autistic girls tend to be diagnosed in their teenage years, this episode would have worked much better if Smackle was the one who was being tested for an autism diagnosis and Farkle told her he was diagnosed with autism at age 5 but he rather not tell his friends about it until then

What was worse was they kept shoving down the viewers' throats that Riley was supposedly a sweet saint despite the fact that she was depicted as an entitled, spoiled, bossy, meddling and somewhat mean person (and retrotrashed and/or dumped on virtually all the BMW characters depicted). If the writers weren't going to actually depict their new protagonist as an actual saint, they should have had the other characters call her on her less perfect traits instead of constantly enabling and touting her alleged wonderfulness.

Honestly for me, the weridest part of the show is that they are supposed to be 7th graders, still waiting to find a 7th grader that looks like most these kids lol
