Teen Beat
Danielle Fishel spent her teenage years inside millions of homes, every Friday night, portraying the iconic Topanga Lawrence on the family sitcom, Boy Meets World. From her first kiss to her first haircut – absolutely everything was caught on camera. Thirty years later, she’s come to the realization that numerous generations have witnessed her most formative (and awkward) years – and now she’s looking to turn that spotlight around. “Teen Beat with Danielle Fishel” will find the former child star, current TV director and recent Dancing with the Stars contestant, sitting down with other celebrities to unearth details from their (untelevised) upbringings. Since their first pimple wasn’t highlighted during TGIF programming, the least they can do is talk about it now. By cracking open their childhood diaries to reveal embarrassing fashion choices, school crushes and dramatic friend fallouts, Danielle isn’t just chasing nostalgia - she’s using the memories as a roadmap to understand who her guests have become and what the future could bring. Danielle Fishel gave you her childhood – now it’s time we hear yours.
