They did it! Girl Meets World is officially happening on the Disney Channel, and fans get to see exactly how the lives of Cory and Topanga turned out. But what about all the other amazing TV couples who have vanished into the ether? Here's our highly scientific (not) research on exactly where all these couples are now, and why they too deserve their own dang spinoff!!
Never once looking back on her promise to forgive Ben for cheating (because who says no to Scott Speedman when he says he doesn't want to live his life without you?!), Felicity and Ben are happily married, with two adorable, curly-haired kids who are never permitted to trim their locks. (Sorry, we had to.) Ben + Feli own an amazing coffee shop on Larchmont Ave. in Los Angeles called simply, "Hey," where they greet each costumer just that way, and never ever speak of that stupid time travel thing ever ever. Even when their good, formerly-once-dead friends Elena and Noel stop by.Oh, and clearly Javier is their coffee-shop manager. Duh!
Three years after their ridiculously perfect proposal at the Alamo Freeze (Still makes us get all weepy!), Matt and Julie are enjoying their long engagement, much to Coach Taylor's delight. Still living in Chicago, the high school sweethearts spend every holiday with her parents, who appear on a recurring basis to sass the young couple and teach them the ways of perfecting the TV marriage, in Philadelphia, and make sure to fly Grandma Saracen out each and every time.
Sydney and Vaughn are living in Los Angeles, semi-retired from the CIA and operating Restaurant 47, the amazing gourmet eatery housed inside of Sydney's favorite sacred haven—do we even have to say it?—Union Station. Their two children, Isabelle and Jack, are incredibly smart high-schoolers now, and when Isabelle asks why Daddy is missing from all the photos in her baby book, no one mentions that he was once dead but then JJ Abrams changed his mind after a rabid fan campaign to resuscitate him. Oh, and of course: The kids' godfather, Will Tippin, stops by from time to time, just to remind everyone how hot he got. (How ya doin', Bradley Cooper!)
There are two ways this could go, so buckle up Chair and Dair fans:
Option No. 1: Two years after the series finale, Chuck and Blair now have two kids and are struggling to keep the spark alive, so they join an Eyes Wide Shut-esque secret society, that's filled with as many secrets and scheming as their high school days (aka their version of heaven).
Option No. 2: Come on, he's Chuck Bass. Could he ever really settle down? After Chuck's tendency to sabotage his own happiness strikes again, a devastated Blair turns to a familar shoulder to cry on: Dan, now a best-selling author, her BFF Serena's husband. Will they stay friends or become something more, committing the ultimate betrayal?
John Stamos and Lori Loughlin keep flirting with the idea of a Jesse-Becky spinoff, toying with our fragile hearts, and saying it's a maybe sorta kinda perhaps possibility. Make it happen, ABC! Clearly these two are now living somewhere with their own Full House, and neice Michelle will stop by to give loads of fashion tips. Jesse is clearly now selling hiw own line of hair care.
Remember when the CW's spinoff 90210 crushed all of our dreams by having Donna Martin appear only to reveal she and David had drifted apart? Yeah, let's course-correct that TV tragedy with another spinoff, shall we? Maybe about finding love again with your high school sweetheart at a reunion, or during a long weekend when the gang reunites after a tragedy such as Andrea's death a la The Big Chill. Sorry girl, rough twist!
It's Fawlty Towers or Newhart in Stars Hollow: Lorelai runs an inn occupied by crazy people. Her husband, Luke, runs a diner patroned by crazy people. All the sitcom possibilities of Stars Hollow plus all the caffeinated Lorelai banter we can handle. We need this.
Two words: Mikita babies! After their happy ending in the series finale, who wouldn't want to see Michael and Nikita struggle to juggle their badass missions with changing diapers? OK, maybe no one wants to see that but we sure want to see more Maggie Q, who would basically the hottest TV mom to ever have lived. Plus, godmother Alex could always pop by for a guest appearance or two!
Chuck and Sarah, with her memories fully restored, eventually did buy a house with a white picket fence and a red door, which they promptly converted into a high-tech spy base, out of which they ran secret spy missions. Some years later, they find themselves kidnapped by an evildoer, and it's up to their teenage children to figure out who their parents are and save the day. (Spy Kids: The TV Show, anyone?)
This quirky couple's spin off, titled "Regina and the Phalanges," would follow them around, mockumentary style, Flight of the Concords-esque, as they toured the country with their folksy piano/guitar musical act, also called Regina and the Phalanges. Ross and Rachel who?
Imagine Jon and Kate Plus Eight combined with Toddlers & Tiaras, except it's Jenna and Jenna plus Eight Jennas, and there's a lot less yelling. TV WIN.
Pacey has moved his seafood-based Food Network empire (he hosts a show from his boat) from New York to LA, taking Joey – now a highly successful author – and his 17 year-old daughter, Jennifer "Jen" Witter, with him. The artsy Jen struggles to adjust to the L.A. lifestyle until her parents arrange a once-in-a-lifetime film internship with an old friend, who is now one of the biggest directors in the world. (Meta references and love stories galore!)
After being "on the run" with each other for a few months, these two on-again off-again lovebirds have decided they missed the attention given to them by the cameras when they worked at Dunder Mifflin, so they buy their own camera and film Kelly's attempts at starting a fashion line. She thinks she's Kimora Lee Simmons, and he's Michael Moore. What results is the best/worst web series the world has ever seen. And of course Jim and Pam will be there!

"Deep Tuck" follows Brad and Jane Kerkovich-Williams and the spa they decide to open together, because Jane's got a skill for business and two of Brad's favorite things are his lotions and his creams. The gift shop (run by Alex) sells affordable men's shirt dresses, because, of course, "daddy likes a deep tuck."
