Why Rider Strong Hated Filming The Infamous Alcoholic Episode

JUST AS HANDSOME NOW –

Nov. 12, 2024 – Boy Meets World is one of those classic shows that’s become even more popular due to streaming. Amid that, the show has been re-evaluted, with series cast members Danielle Fishel, Rider Strong and Will Friedle even rewatching it for a podcast.  One low for Strong, apparently, was the infamous alcoholic episode, and he explained just why it marked such a “miserable” experience for him. Despite Boy Meets World being a family-friendly show, the hilarious sitcom featured dramatic moments from time to time. One might recall the time that Eric Matthews decided not to adopt his little friend, Tommy, or when Shawn and Jack Hunter’s father died. On top of all that, it’s hard to forget the episode that dealt with alcoholism. It was actually so raw that Disney Channel banned the “special” episode from its syndication. Rider Strong didn’t hold back about what it was like filming the installment when discussing it on the Pod Meets World rewatch podcast:
