Fishel is back, along with many of the original crew members and writers.
"It's kind of like this nostalgic, deja vu thing for me," Savage said. "Every day I get to work ... I see so many of the same faces that I spent my entire childhood with. ... It's like you're re-creating your childhood. Not many people get to do that."
"Girl Meets World" largely follows the couple's 12-year-old daughter, Riley (Rowan Blanchard), and her best friend, Maya, the way its predecessor focused on Cory and best friend, Shawn (Rider Strong).
Blanchard describes Riley as "Cory's kid," who will have "countless resemblances" to her TV dad.
Word traveled fast among pop culture enthusiasts and fans of the original series after "Girl Meets World" was announced. With the attention came scrutiny.
"'Boy Meets World' was one of those shows people grew up with and felt very connected to," Savage said. "They're very concerned about 'Girl Meets World,' and they're not shy about letting us know."
He thinks fans of the original series won't be disappointed.
"It's not just retelling the same story. It's retelling a similar story but in a much more complicated world."
