Danielle Fishel took “Boy Meets World” fans back to 1993 with her iconic “Donut in the Sky” performance.

The actress, who is known for her role as Topanga in the hit show, shared a video of herself on Thursday recreating her character’s interpretation of the poem, “Donut in the Sky,” from the episode, “Cory’s Alternative Friends,” -- which is also the episode where fans first see Topanga.

In the video, Fishel is dressed as Topanga and even draws on her face with red lipstick as she did nearly 30 years ago for the scene.

Fans flooded the comments saying Fishel’s video unlocked core memories from their childhood.

Fishel recreated the video as a tease to a new episode of her podcast, Pod Meets World, which she co-hosts with her former “Boy Meets World” co-stars, Will Friedle, who played Eric Matthews in the show, and Rider Strong, who played Shawn Hunter.

In the podcast, the actors take fans down memory lane as they watch each episode from “Boy Meets World” and share all the behind the scenes moments, memories and more from the iconic series.

“I just remember being so happy to discover comedy,” Strong said in the new episode of “Pod Meets World” about “Cory’s Alternative Friends.” “Watching this episode and it was remembering, ‘Oh, this is where I learned what a sitcom is.’”
