ATX Television Festival Gets 'My So-Called Life' for 2013
By Richard Whittaker, November 30, 2012, 6:00pm, Picture in Picture
Be still my tv teen angst heart. The ATX Television Festival just announced the first round of guests for 2013, and it includes cast reunions for My So-Called Life, Party of Five, and Boy Meets World. Yes, you can squee right now.
It looks like Austin's newest and most broadcast-centric festival has wisely built on this year's success and guest list, with big name returnees likes Buffy the Vampire Slayer writer Jane Espenson and Cougartown creator Bill Lawrence (whose Q&A was one of the inaugural year's high marks). It seems like Scott Wolf aka Bailey from Party of Five had such a good time last year that there's a whole cast reunion.
And let's just face facts. Even though it's unclear who exactly will be coming, with the announcement of spin-off/sequel Girl Meets World, we're really hoping Ben Savage makes it for the Boy Meets World gathering.
