He's still a babe!

[Mr. Vixen]

Yes he could get it any day.

It took me awhile to get into BMW, I probably started watching it in the 3rd or 4th seasons.

After saying that, I'm not feeling this spinoff. I have issues with the spinoff.

Issues like?

[MoTheGreat]

One of them is her father being her teacher. I don't mind him teaching in the same school.

[London]

It's not that bad and he plays no favoritisms. I think having a parent for a teacher would be horrible but he makes it work.

Farkle is amazing.

The other problem with Cory being his daughter's teacher - she calls him "dad" IN CLASS?!

[All My Shadows]

I've worked with teachers who had to teach their own kids (middle school and high school settings), and it's really not that big of a deal. IIRC, the kids did call them "Mom" in class.

I just watched the first two episodes and I enjoyed it. They could of dialed down "this is my world" stuff in the first episode. This is definitely better than most of the Disney shows on the network over the past ten or so years. Sabrina Carpenter who plays Maya is the shinning star for me of the younger kids.

[Jennerz]

Maya is great. I like her more than I like Riley. I think Riley will grow on me, but her actress' portrayal is less natural than is Maya's.

So far I like the show, though. I still wish it weren't a Disney Channel show, but so far it's pretty good.

Someone posted an interview that reminds us that Boy Meets World ended with them as 19-year-olds, but this show is starting as Boy Meets World did with pre-teens. So I'm trying to keep that in mind and think it is worth giving them time to grow.

I admit, I was confused and surprised about all the love for BMW. I think maybe I was a few years too old for it (I assume the uber fans here are younger than me...) That said, many seem to forget that the first two or so seasons were WAY lighter and more silly than the later ones. ie the best friend character (yes, this is how little I remember the show) acted out by joining the "rough" kids and doing things like flooding the school--not becoming an alcoholic or whatever he did later on.
