MTV is looking to set off a nostalgia bomb! The network is get ready to launch MTV Classic, which is bringing Daria, Laguna Beach, Beavis & Butt-head and more back to your TVs. The rebrand will feature a mix of fan-favorite shows with a focus on 1990s and early 2000s programming. “From Beavis & Butt-head to Laguna Beach, MTV’s programming vault is a music and pop culture goldmine with universal resonance,” Sean Atkins, president of MTV, said in a statement. Other shows to call the network home are TRL specials, MTV Unplugged, Aeon Flux, Pimp My Ride, Cribs, Jackass, Punk’d, Clone High, Wonder Showzen and more.

Girl Meets World is staging the ultimate Boy Meets World reunion for the season three finale and bringing back just about everybody, including both actresses who played Morgan Matthews, Cory’s younger sister. Joining Lily Nicksay, the Morgan of seasons one and two, and Lindsay Ridgeway, the Morgan from seasons three-seven, for the big reunion are William Daniels (Mr. Feeny), Anthony Tyler Quinn (Mr. Turner), Rider Strong (Shawn Hunter), Will Friedle (Eric Matthews), William Russ (Alan Matthews), Betsy Randle (Amy Matthews), Lee Norris (Minkus) and Danny McNulty (Harley). The Girl Meets World writers room Twitter revealed the big reunion news and said all of the Boy Meets World veterans will “all stop by and help us make a decision.”This isn’t the first Boy Meets World reunion that Girl Meets World has staged, but it certainly seems like the largest. As for that “decision”? It remains to be seen. Bringing two actresses back who have played the same character isn’t a new trick either. As for the future of Girl Meets World, it seems it’s in question. Series star Rowan Blanchard took to Twitter to give a message to fans. “I know as much as you guys do,” she said. “Filming tonight’s episode was very emotional for all of us, so thank you to all of you who came and stuck with us. The family they we created on our set is something I will never truly forget.”
