Hey everyone, I'm
Sean. You may know me as ConfidenceKBM, author of the recently
completed Boy Meets World Reviewed. I'll be teaming up with Christian
here to talk through the increasingly divisive Girl Meets World,
starting with episode 20. We're in figure-it-out-as-we-go mode for
these team-reviews, so for this first attempt I'll just give my
general thoughts then pass it over to Christian for his own thoughts
and commentary on my thoughts, and continue that with a couple more
passes back and forth.
Christian uses the
default font in purple, so I'll be using this different font in gold.
Let's get this world meeting started. No snacks will be provided at
this time.
I don't know if
this dead horse is still worth beating, but nothing that Cory does in
the first two minutes resembles anything a real teacher would do. And
it's fine, it's fun, but one of the core themes of Boy Meets World
was how important yet undervalued teachers are. But now in GMW the
teacher is simply a court jester for the students to throw rotten
vegetables at. So that's upsetting, but like I said, dead horse. The
highlight of the opening is Farkle's Belgium reaction, which actually
made me laugh out loud for once. Unsurprisingly, it's an action
resembling his father more than himself.
