Thirty years after Boy Meets World made them household names, Danielle Fishel (Topanga), Rider Strong (Shawn), and Will Friedle (Eric) launched a rewatch podcast and hit the road — and directors Chris Levitus and Zane Rubin were there to capture it all. Mike talks with Levitus and Rubin about Doc Meets World, their feature documentary premiering at the 2026 Tribeca Film Festival.

The two filmmakers discuss how a phone call from Strong turned into a three-year project, why a $20,000 union fee inadvertently shaped their entire approach, and what it took to make a documentary that works just as well for viewers who never watched the show. They also break down the division of labor — Rubin as archival hunter, Levitus as editor — and the painstaking work of crafting an opening that could bring any audience up to speed before the real journey begins.
