NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. -- Former child star Danielle Fishel, a teen heartthrob on ABC's "Boy Meets World," was
arrested this week on a drunken driving warrant from Los Angeles County, police said.
Fishel was arrested Thursday just before 5 a.m. after officers stopped a car she was in, said Newport Beach Sgt. James
Rocker. She was released from jail shortly after her arrest.
Fishel grew up in Yorba Linda and spent more than seven years playing Topanga, the love interest of "Boy Meets World"
star Ben Savage.
In 2006, Fishel became the spokeswoman for NutriSystem after she announced on "The Tyra Banks Show" that she
was so thrilled about losing 20 pounds with the diet program that she wanted to be the company's spokeswoman.
In February, Fishel became a special correspondent for the Tyra Banks show.
hey guys just got word that abc has took boy meets world from its weekday and weekend line up no
more boy meets world on abc family as of the moment right now guys i will keep you guys posted
Yes, my fellow fans, the day has finally come...a glimmer of hope has been lit, as TV Shows On DVD.com confirms that Season 4 of Boy Meets World, along with the remaining seasons, being finally released is a POSSIBILITY!
Although nothing's been confirmed, it's better than nothing - read full release below:
"I know there are tons of Boy Meets World fans out there, so this is the news they've been waiting
to hear - there's hope for the show on DVD.
I met with someone in charge of licensing TV shows for ABC during
a recent trip to LA, and he said that he's trying to find a home for Boy Meets World. This means the current licensing
deal with Buena Vista Home Entertainment, the company that released seasons 1-3, is ending soon, and there's an opportunity
for a new distributor to step in and release the show. A new distributor would license the entire series, including seasons
1-3 which have already been released.
While I wish I had solid news that the set was coming, this is a step
in the right direction. I have no doubt a studio will license the show and continue to release it, but that hasn't happened
yet. We'll keep you informed on any developments, but we wanted to let fans know that there's a better chance the show will
continue to be released than there was 6 months ago." - Source
In other news, Danielle featured in the July 9th issue of People Magazine, under 'Bodywatch', in which they spoke
about her 28 pound weight loss on the Nutrisystem diet. Thank you to forum member 'Fanofishel' & Rider's Angel for the
information. There's a video interview from last month with Danielle up at People.com, where she shows off her new figure.
