The Boy Meets World <\/i><\/a>cast apparently didn’t always get along behind-the-scenes of the beloved sitcom.<\/p>\n

“<\/span>They had some problems working together as \u2026 they grew up,” William Daniels<\/b>‘ wife, Bonnie Bartlett<\/b> told Page Six <\/i><\/a>in an interview published on Friday, May 22, adding that it is “very unusual” for child stars to “continue in the business” after acting onscreen at a young age.<\/p>\n

“They have grown up together. They’ve been very smart,” Bartlett, 96, stated. “They’ve done well – all of them. That’s very unusual in a cast with children. They’ve done a good job of that. They’re good people. They’re all good people.”<\/p>\n

Boy Meets World <\/i>aired from 1993 to 2000<\/a>, following preteen Cory Matthews (Ben Savage<\/b>) and his adventures throughout middle school and beyond. The show also starred Danielle Fishel, Rider Strong, Will Friedle <\/b>and Daniels, 99.<\/p>\n

Daniels notably portrayed Cory’s neighbor and teacher, Mr. Feeny, who followed the friend group through high school and college. Feeny ultimately married Dean Lila Bolander (played by his real-life wife Bartlett) in the final season.<\/p>\n

According to Bartlett, Daniels was a “positive influence” to the young actors.<\/p>\n

“He never told them what to do, but they learned a lot just from watching him \u2026 how to behave, what is serious,” Bartlett told Page Six<\/i>. “You know, with kids, it’s all a joke, it’s all funny. I think [Bill] introduced them to the seriousness of responsibility.”<\/p>\n

In the years since BMW <\/i>ended, Daniels remained close<\/span><\/a> to his former costars even though Savage, 45, seemingly distanced himself from the rest of the TV family.<\/p>\n

“He disappeared – I wish I knew why, to this day,” Friedle, 49, claimed to Variety <\/i>in 2023<\/span><\/a> of Savage, who played his TV brother. “We didn’t have a fight. There’s no falling out. There was no animosity. He just woke up one day, and decided \u2018I don’t want this person in my life anymore.'”<\/p>\n

According to Friedle, he tried to initiate contact with Savage for months before giving up.<\/p>\n

“I’ve known him since he was 11 years old, and we have a shared history. And we were doing these conventions together, and we were getting to know each other as adults, and then he just kind of went, \u2018I’m done with you,'” Friedle alleged. “I tried and tried and tried for months, until finally my wife was like, \u2018Why are you doing this to yourself? He obviously doesn’t want you in his life.'”<\/p>\n

Friedle now hosts a “Pod Meets World” recap podcast with former costars Fishel, 45, and Strong, 46. Friedle and Strong also supported Fishel during her stint on Dancing With the Stars <\/i>last year, in which Daniels even made a cameo.<\/p>\n
