This show reminded me of movies like Home Alone 3. Where instead of the a plot that while probably wouldn't happen, but could happen. They went with an over the top, silly plot just to get quick laughs. The original Turner and Hooch, while a comedy, was a comedy based on Tom Hanks just being himself and Turner doing normal dog things. The comedy here is take what is funny and multiply it by ten. Basically what silly outrageous thing can we have them do. It doesn't matter if it is realistic or not.

While Boy Meets World targeted pre-teens to adults, Girl Meets World is strictly for the pre-teens to teen age bracket. With silly story lines, Girl Meets World is much more like a Hannah Montana, ICarly, or Wizards of Waverly, than it is to the original Boy Meets World. While the format of learning a life lesson is still there, it is found in a much sillier way.

One thing that I really don't like, is that Cory and Topanga don't act like parents. For example, in the episode that Riley wanted to go to a dance instead of going to Cony Island to ride the Cyclone with her father. Cory pouts to Topanga, tries to guilt Riley into going, and is just over dramatic. There was a similar episode on Boy Meets World, where Eric and Cory don't want to play in the father-son softball game. There is no silly drama, in fact they don't even know that they hurt there father's feelings until after the game is over and he went by himself. In the original Boy Meets World, Amy and Allan came off as believable parents. Corey and Topanga come off as being silly and over dramatic.

FYI like Morgan in the early seasons, the little brother Auggie, is awesome!!!

Wow talk about a f'd up episode. Let's start with the racism. While yelling at Topanga, Angela calls her a little white girl. Imagine if the roles were reversed and Topanga called Angela a little black girl. It would be a media frenzy the next day. Now let's move on to the domestic violence. When Topanga sees Cory for the first time after reading Lauren's letter, in a fit of rage, she slams him into a locker knocking him to the ground. Imagine if Cory was mad at Topanga and just decided to slam her into a locker. Finally there's the kidnapping. What the heck was that about. Shawn is a dog, so three girls decide to trick him into going to the boathouse. They then handcuff him trapping him in the boathouse. Nobody seems to care that this is a felony
