Danielle Fishel Sets ‘Boy Meets World’ Reunion at ‘Dancing With the Stars’ Dedication Night With Bill Daniels, Matthew Lawrence, Trina McGee and More
The “Boy Meets World” cast is getting back together to support Topanga.
During Tuesday’s dedication night on “Dancing With the Stars,” Danielle Fishel will dance to the theme song from the hit sitcom in a number honoring William Daniels, who played Mr. George Feeny.
On Monday, Fishel shared via Instagram that many members from the cast will also be in the audience, including Will Friedle (Eric Matthews), Betsy Randle (Amy Matthews), William Russ (Alan Matthews), Trina McGee (Angela Moore), Bonnie Bartlett (Lila Bolander and Williams’ wife), Matthew Lawrence (Jack Hunter) and Alex Désert (Eli Williams).
“The fabulous group of people who will be joining me at DWTS tomorrow for Dedication night! I feel such an overwhelming responsibility to give a full out, joyous, celebratory dance to the man who is responsible for THOUSANDS of people becoming teachers and who has helped raise multiple generations,” Fishel captioned her Instagram. “This dance is a dedication from me to Bill but I am representing ALL OF YOU who loved and appreciated him and his career for so many decades. Unfortunately, @rider_strong is working out of town but he will be missed.”
Fishel is dancing a jive during the Oct. 14 episode with her partner, Pasha Pashkov. Daniels, 98, will join the duo in the routine.
“Saying it out loud feels crazy. But yes, we get to dance to the ‘Boy Meets World’ theme song, the one you all know and love,” she previously shared on her “Danielle With the Stars” podcast. “I’m so excited. It’s really a dedication to Bill and the role he has played in my life and the role ‘Boy Meets World’ has played in my life. I have really felt like ‘Dancing with the Stars’ has been a second act for me in my career and as a performer.”
She mentioned how much of an inspiration Daniels has been in her life and to many members of the TV family. She added, “To be able to say thank you to him and give him this kind of a platform for him to receive the love that he deserves is going to be very memorable. So I’m very, very excited about that. I can’t wait.”
“Boy Meets World” aired from 1993 to 2000. The cast later reunited for a spinoff, “Girl Meets World,” which aired for three seasons on Disney Channel from 2014 to 2017.
“Dancing With the Stars” dedication night airs on Tuesday at 8 p.m. ET. on ABC and Disney+ and is available to stream the next day on Hulu.
