This isn’t gmw related and not to like expose my location lol but can y'all pray/ send good vibes for my dumb little hometown in Mississippi? It got pretty much destroyed by a tornado last night.
My house is fine but my best friend is pretty much homeless and the university my dad teaches at is closed down indefinitely due to damage. Also four people have been proven dead as of now, and they’re still looking.
“My little sister is white but she LOVES Tiana. She loves to cook so Tiana is automatically her favorite. We went to Target to buy her a new Tiana doll and this white lady, who we didn’t know, frowned at this. She then commented, ‘Little girl, wouldn’t you like an Elsa doll instead of that one? My sister looked at the woman and said, ‘Elsa has weird bug eyes and she can’t cook. No thank you.’ The lady looked really embarrassed and didn’t say anything after that.”
Hey ! So I’m gonna go ahead and ask for a little inter-fandom solidarity between all us fans who love different things and places, but understand what that feels like.
Recently Girl Meets World, the spin off of the popular 90′s show Boy Meets World got cancelled for apparently no reason. It aired on Disney Channel and had its highest ratings. It was nominated for Emmy awards multiple times and the first week of 2017 isn’t out and it has been nominated for another two more. Since it’s cancellation multiple mainstream media resources have reported that it was too soon including Bustle, Seventeen and Vogue.
This show has greatly inspired the younger generation. It is different and has a lot of life lessons worth teaching this era of kids, teens and even adults. It hasn’t been given its proper chance to grow thus far and now it has been cancelled.
Even with its restrictions, Girl Meets World has dealt with racism, cyber-bullying. It introduced an Autistic main character as well as a Black main character. It also dealt with religion and hopelessness. This show has touched so many people.
So here’s a desperate plea from a fellow fan, Please help us get @netflix and @hulu on board with saving it :
The GMW fans are running a campaign to get the show picked up by Netflix or Hulu to continue production. The basics are below.
NETFLIX :
Netflix has been very supportive. Every single agent who has fans have talked to reported that it is currently the most requested show and that it has chances to be picked up.
HULU :
Is partly owned by Disney. Currently support is more for Netflix but Hulu has the better chance at this game if they’re interested. We need to get them interested.
WHAT YOU CAN DO :
1) Sign The Petitions :
This one is a request to other networks (Netflix and Hulu specifically) to pick up the show :
Both are important. Without Disney relinquishing rights, the show can’t be saved. If you can only sign one then that is quite alright. Even a small bit of help is greatly appreciated.
There are three slots for title requests so please type in :
i) Girl Meets World Season 4 ii) Girl Meets World iii) Netflix Original : Girl Meets World
3) Social Media :
i) Twitter :
If you have a twitter, please use the following hashtags :

ii) Facebook :

iii) Instagram :.
