The moment all 90s kids have been waiting for has finally arrived: the Girl Meets World trailer has finally hit the Internet. The 30-second trailer is a short but sweet introduction to the brand new Matthews family, headed by high-school sweethearts Cory and Topanga.
The first clip of the highly anticipated series introduces us to the titular "Girl," played by newcomer Rowan Blanchard. But don't worry, there will still be plenty of familiar faces dropping by. Rider Strong will be reprising his role as Cory's best friend, Shawn, while Cory's parents, played by Betsy Randle and William Russ, will also make an appearance. And what would the Boy Meets World reunion be without some wise words and life lessons from Mr. Feeny? William Daniels stepped back into his beloved role for the pilot episode.
If you're prepared for a wave of nostalgia to hit you like a ton of bricks, check out the first preview of Girl Meets World. The show will debut this summer on the Disney Channel.
