"We are in the middle of filming Season 1, well, I shouldn't say middle, we are towards the end," Blanchard said. "It's going incredibly. I couldn't ask for a better project to work on. Everyone involved, they are all so loving and they have made it such a family show."
The show will follow Riley and her best friend, Maya, played by “Sofia the First” actress Sabrina Carpenter, as they navigate middle school in New York City.
"Ben [Savage] and Danielle [Fishel], they are just my favorite people, they are equally my parents in real life as they are on screen," Blanchard added. "It's such a legacy, it hasn't even hit me yet."
“Boy Meets World” ran for seven seasons on ABC through 2000.
Disney is the parent company of ABC.
