Flashback! Danica McKellar Reveals Her Favorite 'Wonder Years' Moment | TODAY
I love her. Beautiful, smart, sweet, and a great role model. Love it.
been in love with her as long as i can remember. plus im one of those who nearly maxed my verbals but have a maths learning disability. not only is she wonderful (no pun intended... ok maybe...) as an actresss but as a real person. maths are lucky to have her as an ambassador.
She’s more beautiful in her forties.
You are talking like you know her, just by watching the show and this clip. Man, you should really look more critical at such "role models" presented by the media.
@@eadghe Very true, but it is based on other things as well that is why she is liked. Let's look at what she did. She is a public figure so we can only see what is available to us publicly and that is she doesn't do drugs, not an alcoholic like a bunch of Hollywood, actually got a degree and not some easy degree like Drama Art, etc. but Math. Published some books on math as well. So, yeah she got some good credits for being a good role model.
a genuinely nice person, no wonder she didn't make it in Hollyweird =)
...Except she did. She acted regularly from Wonder Years on (while also getting a degree in Mathematics from UCLA).
She does seems like a nice person though, it's as if not everyone (most) in entertainment fit into your hollyweird box. Guess you'll have to find something else to make yourself feel superior.
I see her all the time on the Hallmark Channel Christmas specials they put on.
she walked away for awhile to get a degree in math and she cowrote a theorem
@@tclancy13 You absolute close minded moron.
@@tclancy13 Well she sort of did and it took a very very long time for her to fine sustained success. It also took her a very long time for her to accept that EVERYONE will only see her as Winnie from The wonder years and actually make a decent living after the show while accepting that people only really want to continually talk about it. She's been pretty open about both topics.
She is still adorable! The fact that she is actually smart adds to the total package. Intelligent ladies are the best!
Yeah she looks hot❤
I just love her calm demeanor and gentle spirit. She is so beautiful and sweet 💙 One of my favorite TV characters.
watched the whole show 8 times
BEST
SHOW
IN
THE
WORLD!
I remember I got the flu in fourth grade. That day there was a wonder years marathon. Became my favorite tv show after that.
The way she had her hair long. and her dark brown eyes ❤. Very beautiful 🥰
*Just as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside!*
Awe, I so had a crush on Winnie.
Everybody had a Winnie Cooper in their lifes
Anybody who watched the show back then had a crush on winnie.
@Reformat yeah, you and millions of other guys who grew up watching that show!
She's still bae in her 40s
Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaacts
@HYPERBOREAN IMMORTAL Hahaha, yes. Yes indeed.
@HYPERBOREAN IMMORTAL-Ikr?
I prefer 9 yo
@HYPERBOREAN IMMORTAL meh. she was blonde. I like brunettes.
Something about her presence in any capacity feels comforting
Who didn't have a crush on Whinny Cooper? I am so glad to hear about her extraordinary mathematical accomplishments. How lucky are we, those of us that got to watch the Wonder Years in prime time. I am happy that she has grown up to be such an outstanding woman. Wow, go Danica!
So adorable! She always was and still is :)
this show reminded me so much of my life, growing up......about 10 years past the setting of this show. I began the 7th grade in 1980
What an exceptional and sweet Lady She has become.
don't forget she is a published maths genious. has her own prize winning maths theory.
no she is not lmao u didn't watch this if u did re watch it she makes clear stop saying this
@@teagunnn except she is a math genius.
Man did I have a crush on her back in the day! Especially in her field hockey uniform in that episode. Such a cutie she was! (And still is BTW..)
What an amazing time to be alive to be in her shoes .
I remember her from the show.
And I said she is going to be so gorgeous when she reaches adulthood.
So I kept looking at my watch waiting.......
She got better with age 🔥🔥🔥
She looks exactly like how she did in the wonder years. She hasn’t changed that much
She is amazing..
I still reminisce on the wonder years
Was in love back then. Am in love today.
She's a babe!
one of the best shows ever
winnie cooper still looks hot!
Yea big time shed one of my celebrity crushes big time. My favorite still being Jodi Sweetin from Full House who played Stephanie Tanner.
She is actually smart, too!
I like women in their 30s to 40s its when they mature really good
that was 3 years ago. Not so much now
I still think they should have ended up together in the show
Nah
no lol. though it bothers me that they killed papa arnold
I think it made it more realistic that they didn't stay together.
I mean how many people actually marry their first love? At least they stayed friends.
William Fetters why don’t people marry there first love? I can’t speak for myself cuz I never had a Winnie but why not?
Joel M
It was an artistic choice and I believe the writers were smart to finish the story that way…The show always stayed very true to life… And the overwhelming majority do not end up marrying their first love/teen sweetheart...Not that they can’t marry their first love… Seldom that it happens though... after re-watching the show as an adult, they weren’t a great match for one another… but as an 11-year-old child, I was heartbroken like everybody else… Haha.
She is still so beautiful.I loved to watch the wonder years when i was a kid.
Still Stunning!!!
She looks like Belle from beauty and the beast!
So pretty 😍
Childhood crush reignited 😍
shes beautiful then and now
I had the biggest crush on her. And she is still AWESOME
Always knew she would grow up to be a beautiful woman. Didn’t know she was brilliant.
Winnie Cooper, my childhood crush.
Yeah. She's great and all. But I still think Kevin should've dumped Winnie and gone off with that temptress, Madeline (Julie Condra). Still hard to believe she was near 6 years older than Fred when her scenes were shot. Can you imagine making out with a 19-year old girl on camera when you were 13? Had to have been a bit weird for both of them. Anyhow, loved that part of the show. I still bust out laughing and can't stop when Kevin's ID bracelet comes back engraved "Kevin Amold".
Winnie Cooper is one of America's favorite girls next door.
Man i had such crush on her as a kid... loved this show was so relatable
It's always a blessing to see you A precious moment to always cherish God Bless
An achingly cute girl who grew up to be a beautiful woman! On the show, her character was deeply affected by her brother's death and car accident. Her first relationship with Kevin was fraught with difficulties but she came through it all with flying colors. As did Danica, it seems. The Wonder Years is a timeless series that encapsulates the trials and traumas of youth. With lessons as bitter as lemons and memories as sweet as strawberries.
happy 44th birthday danica mae mckellar aka gwendolyn winnie cooper on wonder years !!!!
Beautiful intelligent woman. What a combination
i liked that show
Just fell in love with her all over again.
What an amazing articulate intelligent young woman!! Only had a chance to watch this a few times due to my work and college schedule, but it did look cute.
She's 46. She's an adult woman, technically she's past middle aged. She's not a "young woman."
@@mitchd949 - she certainly looks great for her age, but I thought the same thing when I read the post ("young?").
Thank you Winnie for the wonder years
Smart, talented, and very beautiful.
Wow! Just gorgeous!
She looks great; seems like a wonderful person,
That was a great show!
WOW.
She is so beautiful
Wonders years is such memorable show..It really is the wonder years at that age, life is such a mystery…
I began watching this months ago, maybe over a year ago; I finished it today. 2/4/25
I remember having the biggest crush on her growing up. Then to find out Danica McKellar is exactly my type in real life.
Beautiful soul
Loved you in the movie Sidekicks☯️
When I was young, watching your show, I used to have a crush on you. I still do and you look so beautiful still! 😂❤ wow!
One of my first crush and she's still gorgeous
She looks almost the same as she did back then, and she still remains pretty today. Although, IMO, even though she almost looks exactly the same, I do think she is prettier today than she was in the show.
Danica McKellar aun sigues siendo totalmente hermosa y siempre lo seras; Los años Maravillozos, mi serie favorita de todos los tiempos... nunca habra otra serie igual...
Danica McKellar eres maravilloza....
Saludos
OMG! She was adorable then and she is gorgeous now ☺️
So glad Hollywood didn't ruin this lovely woman. I like the success stories much more than the horror stories.
She’s got her head on straight. Good for her. She’s also right about a reboot. It was a nostalgic show so it really wouldn’t fit present day. But if it weren’t a nostalgic show and a reboot were possible, throw enough money towards anybody’s way, including Fred Savage, and I guarantee you they’ll say yes.
I had a huge crush on her back then as a kid.
always remembered Wonder Years and You WINIE. u special forever
Gorgeous!!!
Beautiful, intelligent, nice, and down to earth
I love you guys!!!
My childhood crush 🥰🥰
Hermosa❤
மிகவும் பார்த்து ரசித்த கவிதை...... 🎉🎉🎉🎉💗💗🥰🥰🥰🤩🤩😍😍🥰🥰💝💖💗💓💘
She's so intelligent and wordly. I would've rather had the show from Winnie's perspective than Kevin's perspective.
When i was 14 I had a huge crush on her. I think many young guys did.
Danica McKellar and Alyssa Milano...my 80s childhood crushes.
She is a fine wine!👍🌹❤️
I’m just imagining Winnie Cooper and Becky Slater fangirling over Michael J Fox in the next car
Dreamgirl ! ❤️
I had a big crush on Winnie , I loved her long hair .
Oh my God, I remember her, .. .........I remember her.
When they asked her who she had a crush on , i swear i heard her say my name 😂
what a nice person , good on you
Sempre será a linda e inesquecível Winnie Cooper! Abraço from Brazil.
Some series should be revisited, rebooted, what have you. Some should not. Doesn't mean one is better or worse than the other, it's just that it might work with some, and wouldn't work with others. I'm happy to let "The Wonder Years" be what it was. It was so great, there's simply no need to try to add anything more to it.
They are rebooting it, and making it an all black show. Fred Savage is involved, and pushed for it to be all black.
My first crush ♥️
Brains AND beauty. Love that girl!
she was my crush when I was a little kid
😍💕
Fred is right, you could not reboot this show
They did though... Ugh. They made it more Black...
My childhood crush growing up
to me she was always wierd but pretty. she Seems so sweet tho.
Major childhood crush
Yo también admiro a J.Fox es uno de mis idolos,carismático y personalidad magnetica asi como una persona decente y con mi Respeto total. Gracias por compartir Ella fue mi amor platonico cuando preadolescente.
love
La quería, la quiero y la querré hasta que me muera. Ningun personaje me impactó tanto como Winnie Cooper. Mi favorita de todos los tiempos.
Smart and beautiful,
Every boy in the early 90s is still in love with Winnie Cooper.
She was the first TV-Girl I had a crush on. And still, after all these years passed by this crush is there...maybe in another form. But deep down in a small corner of my heart there s this question "How would it have been to have her as girlfriend?" .... well, well, well, good old memories ;)
Is it weird i had a crush on her when I was a kid now im old and still crushing her.. Winnie is definitely one of a kind. And by the way definitely gets better with age ... she's looking pretty good herself
위니..... love you ^^
