Danielle Fishel Karp has set up one of the most strategic pairings in the history of Dancing With The Stars. Fishel, better known as Topanga from Boy Meets World, posted on her social media about the next crazy season coming to ABC’s hit competition: she will be dancing with the freshly crowned winner of Peacock’s reality chic The Traitors.
The post is a spontaneous moment of awe and delight, as captured on camera. This footage shows her reacting to the reality that the one who’d been deceived and manipulated by these outside-of-deception types reality tricks every single time was now going to be sharing the ballroom with her. She captioned it: “When you find out the man who won Traitors is on Season 34 of Dancing With The Stars with you,” along with the handshake emoji, and thus, fans have now/already dubbed this the supreme alliance.
The lights are fed by Fishel with an imperative: “Do you want to form an alliance with me?” So much for hesitation: her partner immediately answers affirmatively. This spontaneous exchange ignited the buzz about this brilliant yet inexplicable pairing.
Reactions were basically non-stop from all over-the-global-with-a-celebrity-thrown-in. Survivor legend Boston Rob Mariano, a man known for strategic alliances himself, offered a bit of caution, basically: “Be careful @daniellefishel he is well trained!🔥” This comment, then, set off a barrage of responses from fans, who either took it as a joke or were disappointed the legend himself was not involved.
Fans took on all sorts of comments in spurring the excitement for this collision of two very different realities. One user captured the feelings of most fans: “The duo I didn’t know I needed but obsessed with now.” Another added: “This is my new favorite alliance,” indicating that this pairing was bringing together two divergent fan bases.
This was all well and good, but the fans were even more excited in unironic anticipation of the alliance. Several kept their comments anchored on Fishel herself, with one commenting, “I’m so excited you’re on Dancing With The Stars this season @daniellefishel.” Another one went further: “This is hands down the best lineup for DWTS I’ve seen in over a decade. Haven’t watched since middle school, but now I’m 30 and I’m BACK baby.”
Internationalism is also manifested by another comment unabled to make it any longer in Spanish about still watching Boy Meets World and almost finishing the wedding episodes; translated, it read: “Topanga!!! I’m just a few episodes away from finishing Boy Meets World, I’m already at the wedding episode 😢😢😢”
Naturally, from fans, there were a lot of mentions regarding historical projects of the two stars. One mentioned still trying to process Fishel’s storyline in her Hannibal stint; another joked about the jacket she was wearing in the video. Perhaps the most imaginative one was the comment asking, “Alexa play Miley Cyrus’s Best of Both Worlds,” which basically sums up the talent mash-up.
What makes this alliance so much more enticing is the variety of skills they bring to partnership in competition. Fishel brings years of production-level experience through her acting career, and the partner brings strategic focus and competitive know-how from having triumphed in one of the harder mental challenges on television. As a fan said, “This man knows a good woman when he sees one!”
So more than just two celebrities teaming up, this alliance is a homecoming of separate entertainment worlds that rarely ever intersect. It is wholesome 90s sitcom royalty charm juxtaposed against the sly strategic maneuvers of today’s reality televising. Once the season starts, all eyes will be on whether this unlikely duo can pull off more than just success on the dance floor.

Whether they can look past their individual talent and onto ballroom dancing is yet to be seen. For now, one thing that is sure is they have won over viewers from both ends of the reality TV spectrum.
