In the latest promo for the series’ premiere week, expect to catch a glimpse of fan favorites Mr. Feeny (William Daniels), Eric “Plays with Squirrels” Matthews (Will Friedle), and Shawn Hunter (Rider Strong), the latter of which has already resurfaced on _GMW_. This is the first appearance on the series by Friedle, and he’s making quite the entrance in full “Plays with Squirrels” garb—but thankfully, it’s just a wig. Who hasn’t missed that wiseguy? Disney Channel also [announced the return](http://www.ew.com/article/2015/02/03/trina-mcgee-blake-clark-guest-star-girl-meets-world) of Shawn’s former girlfriend, Angela (Trina McGee), and his late father, Chet (Blake Clark), who are set to make appearances later in the season.
