DWTS: Danielle Fishel’s 'Boy Meets World' dance with 98-year-old Mr. Feeny melts hearts

The actress, known for her role as Topanga on "Boy Meets World," tells us what it took to get her former on-screen teacher, William Daniels, on the "DWTS" stage.

Contestant Danielle Fishel, known for her role as the '90s heartthrob Topanga, brought out the ultimate surprise for her dedication dance during the Oct. 14 episode of the ABC dance competition.

The actress performed a jive to the catchy “Boy Meets World” theme song, and William Daniels, aka Mr. Feeny – the stern but loving teacher on the series -- joined her on the dance floor.

Sitting at his iconic teacher’s desk, Daniels gave fans pure nostalgia when he appeared on screen. He even closed out the choreography, holding up an “A+” paper for his beloved Topanga.

He means so much to so many people. And he's the most deserving,”

Fishel told our entertainment reporter Courtney Tezeno backstage.
