Marvel star Kat Dennings has revealed which classic sitcom she wants WandaVision to portray next. 

The Disney+ series pays homage to different classic sitcom, ranging from the Fifties black-and-white comedy I Love Lucy to Sixties classics, including Bewitched and The Dick Van Dyke Show

When asked by Extra which series Dennings would like to see the show parody next, the actor said Boy Meets World.

“Well I’ve said, when people have asked what my favourite sitcom is, I always have the same answer and it’s Boy Meets World,” said the 2 Broke Girls actor. 

The 34-year-old added: “I don’t know how they would make that work but I am a fan of those Nineties sitcoms, because that was when… that was kind of my zone.”

Boy Meets World was a hugely popular American sitcom that ran for seven seasons from 1993 to 2000. It chronicles the life of Cory Matthews (Ben Savage) and his friends from sixth grade through to their university years. 

Dennings stars in WandaVision as Darcy Lewis, a character that was introduced into the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Thor (2011).

In the series, Denning’s Darcy works alongside FBI Agent Jimmy Woo (Randall Park) and SWORD Captain Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris) to investigate the show’s central mystery. 

Since its release, WandaVision – which stars Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany as superheroes Wanda Maximoff, aka Scarlet Witch, and Vision – has won over both fans and critics.

WandaVision airs every Friday on Disney+.
