"All of the issues that we dealt with in Boy Meets World were issues of that day," Jacobs said. "And for a long time I've wanted to do an episode about kids not knowing how to communicate anymore because the devices in their pockets have made it unnecessary to need to communicate."

Unfortunately for Cory, being separated from the distractions of her phone will lead Riley to open her eyes to a very handsome seventh grader. Not everyone meets their soul mate when they're in middle school, but considering she's Cory and Topanga's girl, you never know…
