			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://boingboing.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Cory-and-Topanga-married.jpg"><img src="http://boingboing.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Cory-and-Topanga-married.jpg" alt="" title="Cory-and-Topanga-married" width="260" height="336" class="alignright size-full wp-image-196633" /></a>It wouldn't be a <em>Boy Meets World</em> sequel series without the titular "boy," so it was reassuring news to hear that said boy, Ben Savage, would be <a href="http://tvline.com/2012/11/26/girl-meets-world-ben-savage-danielle-fishel/">reprising his role</a> as Cory Matthews in the Disney Channel's upcoming <em>Girl Meets World</em> pilot, about his character's fourteen-year-old daughter. He won't be alone, either -- he'll be joined by Danielle Fishel, who played his TV wife Topanga Lawrence. Really, it would have been downright stupid to do a show about Cory and Topanga's kids without the original actors (though Disney definitely still would have made it without them). </p>

<p>My first thought upon hearing this news was "Yay!" My second thought was "Aren't they, like, 23? A little young to have a teenage kid." After a quick Wikipedia check, I was clearly mistaken. When they got married on <em>Boy Meets World</em> in 2000, Cory and Topanga were in college and could have been around eighteen or nineteen, putting them in their early thirties now, as well as their real-life counterparts. They'd be very young parents, for sure -- but it's 100 percent feasible. And it's not the young parenthood that's throwing me: it's realizing that Savage and Fishel did not inexplicably cease to age after the show ended and are, indeed, full-on grownup persons. Which means that since I'm the same age as they are, <em>I</em> must be a full-on grownup person, too. And there's your (my) sobering, smacky-in-the-face entertainment news of the day.</p>

<p><em>Girl Meets World</em> is, as of right now, just a pilot for a potential series, which will be told from the point of view of Cory and Topanga's daughter, Riley. So, in case it is picked up for series, maybe there won't be a whole lot of Mom and Dad on screen, as much as we'd all love to relive the 1990s and the joyful snacktime that was ABC's T.G.I.F. lineup. </p>
