Danielle Fishel is opening up about the pay disparity between herself and her “Boy Meets World” co-stars during the early years of the hit sitcom.
During a recent episode of “Pod Meets World” — a “Boy Meets World” rewatch podcast hosted by Fishel and former co-stars Rider Strong and Will Friedle — Fishel reflected on how much less she got paid when she was first bumped up from a recurring role to a series regular during the show’s second season.

“If you guys knew the pay disparity, even after I became a series regular, and it was always — the excuse that was used was ‘Well, we didn’t know you would be on the show. We weren’t anticipating you,'” Fishel recalled to her co-hosts and special guest Lauren Lapkus.
While Fishel’s character, Topanga, has become a fixture in the pop culture consciousness, her character was not part of the show’s plan from the beginning. As such, Fishel claims the show used that character development as a way of paying her less.
“It doesn’t make any sense,” Lapkus lamented.

“By season 2, [they] did know…. that excuse should go out the window,” Fishel continued. “And then season 3 rolled around and it was still the same excuse.”
By this point, Topanga’s romance with Cory (played by series lead Ben Savage) was already being narratively cultivated and she’d become a fixture on the series.
Fishel recalled that she finally threw down the gauntlet, explaining, “I had to threaten to not show up to a table read.”
