Is there going to be a fourth season of "Girl Meets World"? Season 3 of the series is still airing on the Disney Channel, but fans have been wondering for months now if the show will end with the season 3 finale. Earlier this month, the writers behind the show tweeted the titles for the remaining episodes of season 3 and the last one got fans talking.

Is the "Boy Meets World" spin-off going to say goodbye to its fans in January 2017? August Maturo, the young actor playing Auggie, hinted that the series may end soon by saying he's "not ready for Goodbye." He made the comment weeks before the writers posted the titles.

Rowan Blanchard, the actress playing Riley, also gave subtle hints earlier this year when she thanked the cast and crew of the show with an emotional message after filming wrapped.

Right now, the signs are everywhere. Some reports are even jumping the gun by saying that Disney has already confirmed that the show will end after this season. They didn't, by the way. But those headlines certainly turned some heads. There are also rumors saying Disney is planning to recruit younger actors and actresses to replace the current cast members since they are already too mature for their roles. Of course, this hasn't been verified.

The cancellation hasn't been confirmed yet, but it looks like some fans just can't wait for the official word from Disney. A petition was launched on Change.org asking ABC's Freeform to pick up "Girl Meets World" if Disney opts to drop it. The petition already has over 50,000 supporters as of this writing. A petition is great because it allows fans to show their support for the show.

Not trying to be overly cynical, but have petitions on Change.org ever changed anything? Are the network heads at Freeform even listening?
