Now we know when _Girl Meets World_ will finally arrive. The Disney Channel announced this morning that the series, which will chronicle the adventures of Cory and Topanga’s daughter, Riley, will premiere on June 27th at 9:45 p.m. Though not a great deal is known about the spin-off right now other than a few of the major roles and that it will be set in New York City (up to this point, [only one teaser](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVrSUEEPubs "undefined") had been released), Savage, Fishel and creator Michael Jacobs have been [dropping hints](http://www.hitfix.com/news/girl-meets-world-casting-update-william-daniels-returning-as-mr-feeny "undefined") [all over the place](http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/03/13/minkus-girl-meets-world%5Fn%5F4956874.html "undefined") about guest-starring roles and cameos from cast members of the original series. Whether the new show can hold a candle to its predecessor remains to be seen, but we now know when we’ll find out. Disney also announced that _Zapped_, an [original made-for-TV movie](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CuMtzyA0dXU "undefined") based on Leslie Margolis’ novel _Boys are Dogs_, will premiere the same night as the lead-in to _Girl Meets World_. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/85676/girl-meets-world-premiere-date/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/85676/girl-meets-world-premiere-date/"},"headline":"Girl Meets World Announces Series Premiere Date","datePublished":"2014-05-02T14:00:19.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-21T07:37:25.341Z","description":"The long-anticipated Boy Meets World spinoff will kick off its first season June 27th on the Disney Channel","url":"https://time.com/85676/girl-meets-world-premiere-date/","keywords":["Television","Disney"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Eric Dodds","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/eric-dodds/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/85676/girl-meets-world-premiere-date/","name":"Girl Meets World Announces Series Premiere Date"}}]}] ```
