I understand Ben is pursuing a political career as a Democrat, but he's not going to get very far if he's doing stuff like this. Boy meets World essentially put him on the map in the public eye, is meaningful to many people, and has resulted in an everlasting bond with his co-stars whether he likes it or not. If he's willing to turn a blind eye to that, even though it would realistically only cost him a few hours total of his time simply sitting down and talking with 3 former co-stars, then why should he think that potentially thousands upons thousands of people he doesn't even know should count on him to represent them as a politician? If it's because of his pursuance of a political career then he's already making political fumbles by being a ghost like this. Every move you make in a venture like that is a political move. Some of them a quite telling political move.
THIS! I will also add to this already amazing take: Ignoring his fan base is a huge mistake. As you said, this show put him on the map and he continues to ignore his fans or constituents in the comments of his IG posts. Also, now knowing that he ghosted them just makes him seem even more immature and unreliable.
With all the child abuse accusations & Ben launching his political career, it doesn’t surprise me that he’s moving away from them. However, to the best of my knowledge, nothing came out against Danielle. I don’t know why he’s estranged from her too.

They chose to be less in the public eye overall, so unlike Ben, who chose to do a spin off and THEN ghosted all of his co-stars, MK and Ashley turned down Fuller House (for good reason). They still talk to the cast, just not as often and they’re not as close as they once were, understandably.

Listen, regardless of whether it's due to Politics or personal reasons some people just grow apart. Does it suck to get ghosted? Yes. Absolutely. But it happens. Danielle, Rider and Will are entitled to feel however they want. But they shouldn't dwell on this forever. It's not uncommon for people who used to work together to no longer be friends.
Especially when your former costars have been accused of RACISM and your older brother has been CANCELLED by the WOKE MOB. Just like Daniel Radcliffe ruthlessly throwing under the double decker bus JK Rowling the creator of the Harry Potter saga.
@@lunarialoonatic I agree wholeheartedly. But we don't know what's happened behind closed doors. Trina McGee (who played Angela) spoke out about the racism she dealt with on set. Danielle and Will all owned up to their part, but Ben didn't. That could have something to do with it too.
The "some people just grow apart" excuse (and for most people, it IS an excuse) is only valid if one of those people is legitimately bad. As in, being around/near them makes you a worse person. Otherwise, you're just being lazy and selfish.
@@Rensune I get what you're saying, but friendships are known to fizzle out. But this is Hollywood. There are only a handful of people who are legitimately friends.
It's the wife🤷♀️. I had a best friend who was a man (I am a woman), nothing romantic he was my brother. We knew each other since we were 4. However, after he got married, he became distant and within 6 months he ghosted me. I found out from his parents it is because she did not trust me and she made him choose. I should also note I am happily married and was married 3 years before he got married. My husband never had a problem with my friendship with him.
@@larissalaflore7202 fair point. I don't disagree with your opinion. I just find the timing suspicious since he got married in February 2023. Also this is the same thing that happened to me. However, like I said it is just my opinion and I agree it could be what you said to. Honestly we will never know and I know it is not really our business to. I grew up with this show and I loved how they have stayed close and always seemed like a family, especially when Girl Meets World came out. It is just sad to hear this, but hopefully one day things will work out again🙏 Sending love to them and to you too.
Yeah but to be fair at the end of the day, if he had to choose between a marriage and a friendship, most people will choose their marriage. It's just how things are. Furthermore, some people move on from friendships and outgrow them. I hope you've been able to heal from the friendship ending. Friendship breakups aren't easy.
@@hayaglamazonluxe fair point, sad but understandable. Thank you for your well wishes. It has been now 3 years since I have heard from him. It is not easy but I have accepted it. Honestly how I coped is is more like he died and I am grieving from the lost, if that makes sense.
Ben at this point where he is known for one role and in the end he probably hates that he is recognised as Cory Matthews like Adam West was only recognised as Batman and it's tough when you play such an iconic role that it follows you and no matter what else you do nothing compares to it.
@@burntvirtuelike Rider and Will were not primary cast on Girl Meets World but he was. Everyone is entitled to say when as it relates to the work. They have to commit to it everyday.
My guess is it’s his wife. They started stated dating 4 years ago, but 3 years ago is when he cut everyone off. They just got married this year. It makes no sense for political to be the reason. The whole world knows of his acting past and about his strong bonds with his old cast mates. It’s not like any bombshells are going to be dropped. She’s probably jealous of the friendships. Maybe she felt left out when they were always reminiscing or maybe she thought he was too close with Danielle. I could be wrong, but that’s what I’m betting on.
I understand he’s busy and he’s focusing on different things in his life like being a politician but these people have known him their whole lives you don’t just cut positive people like that out there’s no excuse for it. Yes I understand people move on but he just simply stopped talking to all them. These guy’s have a history with him. It’s rather sad
I raised my children watching Boy meets world. I still watch both series, Boy meets😢 world and Girl meets world. You're all very good Actor's 🎉 It's always a good idea to😢 have shows such as these. Hint hints Disney 🎉.
I’m gathering it’s due to his new political career. Maybe his team thinks I won’t look professional politically. Idk just a theory. But I do love that podcast though!
@@DavidKen878 Maybe he doesn't think of them as friends.They were coworkers and It's possible he's just not interested in talking to them. People move on.
@@larissalaflore7202If he doesn't consider them friends, then why has he spent the last couple of decades acting like he does? It's obvious that he doesn't consider Trini or Matilda friends, but he still held Danielle's newborn. That wasn't long at all before he stopped talking to them.
Some people dont understand that the ghoster might have ghosted if he or she felt like the people he ghosted would not accept or understand any reason he COULD give for stopping communication. Plus if he had given them a reason they might have run their mouths to the media about it so what was he supposed to do? I personally ghosted a blood relative after years of trying to have a good relationship. It came down to me asking if we could have a discussion about some concerns and when my request was declined i asked once more. The answer again was no. So I ended the relationship. My guess is that the cast has SOME IDEA (maybe not the whole story) about why he ghosted but they wont speculate out loud. Plus bens brother Fred was absolutely RAKED over the coals from colleagues accusing him of things. Its possible that watching Fred deal with that just made Ben want to keep a smaller circle.
@@millennialaviation no it's not. Did you ever give people you were friends with at 10 years old an explanation about why you're not friends with them at age 40? No? Well I guess that means you "ghosted" them too.
It's crazy because me and my wife were the Cory and Topanga of our school and named our son Cory. To grow up with someone and suddenly just walk away with no explanation is really shitty.
You know I was watching the video before this video it had the same title except for another video I could feel a lot of hate energy towards Ben Savage. But in this video I can see that you guys are trying to come in contact with Ben Savage and seeing if he's okay and and that you guys still care about him. Talking about that video made me cry broke my heart the way they were talking about Ben Savage that video had a lot of hate towards him.
This is such a shame I think Ben Savage is being very selfish and for him to do this to people who’s he’s known and grown up with for 30 years is very sad and disappointing
i'm guessing Savage wants to move on and do other things with his life. Imagine being in your 40s and everyone is still associating you with a job you had as a kid. "Ghosting" is never polite but it seems to me some of the other actors from this show need to move on as well. The fact that they decided to go public with their grievance points to a lack of professionalism and I'm starting to see why he's not returning their calls.
He just did girl meets world a few years back and up until 2022 was continuing to act in plenty of other projects. More than likely it’s his wife. They started dating 4 years ago, 3 years ago he stopped talking to everyone, and he just got married to her this year. People don’t drop life long friendships that have continued well into adult hood over night. But people do drop life long friends because of a jealous partner or because their partner and friends don’t get along.
He’s probably going through some things and this might force him to at least tell them what’s going on… he didn’t look healthy on girl meets world, if you ask me.
He probably has family and other friends to talk to. These people were co-workers. Maybe he doesn't have anything to say to them. Telling this information to force him to communicate doesn't seem right.
@@larissalaflore7202I don’t think they put this out there like that. That was a story for the podcast I’m guessing and ET probably took it and blew it up to make Savage look like a flake. They been tight forever up until said incident. I really think Ben has family issues and probably just wants to clear his head before he talks to anyone. at least that’s the vibe I got.
Here is exactly what happened from a source. Ben introduced Tessa to Danielle and Danielle was short with her. Later that day Danielle told Ben she thought he could do better. Ben was upset and ghosted Danielle. He wasn’t close to Rider or Will.
He's in politics. Staying out of the Hollywood limelight is smart. When someone suddenly drops out of people's lives, you should respect that. As long as you left on good terms, then what's the problem?
I feel like that in the moment right now. Worried that I might be getting ghosted by my best friend, but in the life of an adult maintaining relationships while trying to live is tough
@@HeyItsMe1224 They mostly bad mouth the episodes, and say what should've or what they would've done or written differently. In my opinion it's very rare when they say something nice about it. Season 1 they loved. A season most of us really don't like. Season 2 and on (seasons most of us love) they mostly trash it.
@@DarkHeart515 no actually, the fan favorite seasons were 3 and 4 and they have done those seasons justice. And they never even bad mouth Ben. It’s a great podcast.
I imagine he's just focused on his political career. He probably worries they will convince him to juggle both even though he has no time to help with their project simultaneously. It feels like they arent sending hi hows your family hows your life messages. Just we need you to do the podcast nagging. And if they are constantly coercing him into it he may find it easier to step away than continue to have to let them down and feel guilt. Hes doing things that could help people. Maybe they can try to respect that, understand his boundaries and support his current path. After he's in office and has some time, he may offer.
That’s not a reason to cut off friends. But he did cut them off a year into dating his now wife who he just married this year. She may be jealous or maybe something weird happened that she was uncomfortable with
@@LED816 If he cut them off prior to his new path and the podcast, then I would hope there is healing conversation. It would be a concerning sign if it is relative to a new relationship. Cutting off friends/family is a hallmark of being in an abusive and controlling relationship. Hoping if he's in that situation he can recognize it and get out fast.
@@LED816 my hope is also that if he merely is struggling with not wanting to disappoint his friends that he finds a way to express this soon and they can go back to close. A break from people in times where you are juggling a lot and attempting to avoid disappointing others while you focus is not abandonment. It takes some space for finding words to express your feelings and thoughts at times.
@@Jenahh-aye the pod cast just started last year. He was still acting in 2022. His political career is very new. They haven’t talked to him in THREE years. One year after he started dating his now wife.
That is a very long time. Idk when he began the early leg work for his political bid, or them for the podcast, but it could be cause for concern. I do hope they can work through whatever the catalyst was and he will find his way back to a close relationship with his friends. And soon. Having their input and love would certainly make his new journey better. And they deserve some communication and a chance to explain their side of whatever action he may be upset about. They each seem like very wonderful people.
@@kobrakitsch877 Well Fred Savage being a "Savage" actually dates all the way back to 1993 and this was the real reason The Wonder Years got cancelled. The unfilmed ending was written in which Jack and Norma were planning their honeymoon, the one they never had. Kevin graduates high school and is excepted to the college of his choice. He rushes home to tell his parents the great and news and finds his father Jack dead on the floor. Hence ends the series. And there you have it.😢🌹🪦🙏
My theory is Boy Meets World was created originally at first as a distraction because it aired only 3 months after The Wonder Years ended. I mean, they even handpicked out Ben Savage for the role and it's a coming of age show too.
Sometimes people are toxic and dont know it. There were a number of bad stories about Danielle behind the scenes and none about Ben. How she treated McGee for example. Maybe Ben just doesn't want that in his life anymore. Let's not just assume they are in the right and he is in the wrong because they are more vocal about it.
It’s in the name Ben SAVAGE. Is anybody surprised a guy like Ben Savage would just disappear? I’m more surprised that Rider Strong is still in the mix. If ANYBODY would run away from all things Boy Meets World, I would think it would be him. He was easily the best actor on the show and could have done great things if he just stuck with acting.
I can understand this happening after BMW but surprised it happened after they all reunited for GMW. I hope he knows that BMW is truly a masterpiece and my comfort show
I see now why it’s only Daniel, Ryder and Will doing the Podcast. I mean if he’s fully focused on his political career then good for him. Usually when you have management team in politics they force you to speak with certain people. It’s sad but it happens.
Will and Ryder are obnoxious af on their podcast, that may have something to do with it. Daniel seems cool, but those two seem like they can get super pompous. If Ben is a down to earth person, I could totally see him not wanting to hang out with them. I stopped watching that Pod Meets World about 3 episodes in because I couldn't take 'em.
I don't see what the big deal is. They were co-workers. Work isn't supposed to be a place to make lifelong friends. I, personally, have lost connection with all my past co-workers, including the ones I met in the film industry.
Yeah? Did you work on a hit show for 7 years since the age of 11 with the same people, then play the same character for 4 more years on a sequel series and do countless convention appearances alongside them...and suddenly vanish? That ain't just being "co-workers".
I'm a bit shocked that Ben is behaving this way! These are like childhood friends...He doesn't owe them anything but they were all there for each other over the years. Who cares about politics? It's sad!! Grow up Ben! Come on!
Ppl do not have to be the same way forever jeez Louise. I don’t understand why it’s necessary to take his decision to not be Corey Matthews forever or be talking Boy Meets World solely because many of us find this nostalgic or his cast care to continue on. There’s so many reasons he could not want to be involved and to ignore that is just silly. There are so many of us who switch careers for a myriad of reasons as well as friendships or relationships and most are not “I hate everyone” but rather “this is not who I am or my path any longer”.
It's sad he can't at least tell them why he isn't talking anymore. It would be nice to at least give them a common courtesy. I get we change and just because they were on a beloved sitcom doesn't mean their friends or still friends I get that but we as fans would like them to all reunite and at least him having that bond with them you would think he could at least just tell them something.
Bro this is heartbreaking but I’ve been watching Boy Meets World again for like the 12th time and I’ve noticed that towards the end it seemed like Ben Savage didn’t want to do it anymore and it leaked into the character he played but then he surprised me by appearing on Girl Meets World so maybe I don’t know what I’m talking about 😂😂
It's shitty that he ghosted them but if he was just tired of being associated with this show and this character, I could understand. Corey Matthews and the world of Boy Meets World has taken up so much of Ben's life, I could at least understand, but not agree with, if he felt the only way he could get a break is if he cut all relation to it completely.
People change aome times we groe as a person some times we have to fo separate eays am estranged from my family since my parents dievoce in 2010i onky see them for hikidsys every other year 😢i done trying to have a relationship cyt tire for ever some tirms it better to go Separate wasys some times you cant fix thing
Probably to do with his attempt to get into politics cutting off people who could hurt him if gets into a disagree with likely due to them basically growing up together they probably have things he wishes to remain secret so he cutting everyone who could hurt him also political views could be a factor as Rider and Ben used to go opposite sides of political issues when they were younger. There is also the possibility it could be related to his wife who he married in 2023 she could have asked him to cut them off which is possible as they were couple at the time. I'm leaning more towards it's for political reasons cutting off risks.
@@EricaShady10171972 interesting that out of all the things that it could be , you chose some low vibration response. Seems like a personal issue from your past
I'm not judging Ben. Who knows what their actual personal relationships or anything that went down between them. I'm guessing more went down none of them want to share.
True and I think that is fine. I think what they are more talking about it how he ghosted them and will not talk with them. Even with other politicians they still have friends and make time.
@@jom678 Reminds me of the Mark Paul Gosselaar and the late Dustin Diamond ghosting situation, was it Dustins 1998 tell all book, nope? Was it something Dustin did or said during the years they worked together on Saved By The Bell?! We may never know the truth! 🤔🙄🤨🤷♂
@SuperMarioBrosIII I did not know this happed. I only in the past few years heard of saved by the bell, since the reboot. I went and watched a bunch of the originals. I thought they were all friends irl because of all the hype of the reboot. I thought he was not in it because he died. I guess you never know what happens🤷♀️ it is just sad.
I understand they are actors and want to stay in the spotlight I suppose but why does this have to be shared? Cause all the fans want to know I suppose
This might be a weird thing, but maybe Kevin Arnold, the guy from The Wonder Years his actual brother Fred Savage could actually get him to talk. Maybe I don’t know would be nice though.
Does no one find it classless to publicly discuss being ghosted as you introduce a podcast? Like if they actually exist in an authentic relationship why make private convos public? The whole tone of this gave me the ick
Ben doesn’t want hellywood any longer…He actually sees the Light. Don’t chase “fame”, that’s of no true value. Know your worth and God’s plan over the world’s desires. 🙏🌎 💪🙏

I guess it’s just the fact that they did used to be very close and worked on a show together. Political beliefs really shouldn’t trump friendships imo
@@lunarialoonatic I agree wholeheartedly. But we don't know what's happened behind closed doors. Trina McGee (who played Angela) spoke out about the racism she dealt with on set. Danielle and Will all owned up to their part, but Ben didn't. That could have something to do with it too.
The "some people just grow apart" excuse (and for most people, it IS an excuse) is only valid if one of those people is legitimately bad.
As in, being around/near them makes you a worse person.
Otherwise, you're just being lazy and selfish.
@@Rensune I get what you're saying, but friendships are known to fizzle out. But this is Hollywood. There are only a handful of people who are legitimately friends.
It's the wife🤷♀️.
I had a best friend who was a man (I am a woman), nothing romantic he was my brother. We knew each other since we were 4. However, after he got married, he became distant and within 6 months he ghosted me. I found out from his parents it is because she did not trust me and she made him choose.
I should also note I am happily married and was married 3 years before he got married. My husband never had a problem with my friendship with him.
That sucks, people really need to learn to trust especially if you truly know and love that person. Platonic relationships are REAL.
@@larissalaflore7202 fair point. I don't disagree with your opinion.
I just find the timing suspicious since he got married in February 2023. Also this is the same thing that happened to me.
However, like I said it is just my opinion and I agree it could be what you said to. Honestly we will never know and I know it is not really our business to.
I grew up with this show and I loved how they have stayed close and always seemed like a family, especially when Girl Meets World came out. It is just sad to hear this, but hopefully one day things will work out again🙏
Sending love to them and to you too.
Yeah but to be fair at the end of the day, if he had to choose between a marriage and a friendship, most people will choose their marriage. It's just how things are. Furthermore, some people move on from friendships and outgrow them. I hope you've been able to heal from the friendship ending. Friendship breakups aren't easy.
@@hayaglamazonluxe fair point, sad but understandable. Thank you for your well wishes. It has been now 3 years since I have heard from him. It is not easy but I have accepted it. Honestly how I coped is is more like he died and I am grieving from the lost, if that makes sense.
@@hayaglamazonluxepeople who isolate you from family and friends are a red flag. She's insecure as hell and I bet that marriage won't work out
Ben at this point where he is known for one role and in the end he probably hates that he is recognised as Cory Matthews like Adam West was only recognised as Batman and it's tough when you play such an iconic role that it follows you and no matter what else you do nothing compares to it.
But Adam West embraced it
That would be a weird reason considering he did multiple seasons of a sequel series as the same character 15 years later.
@@burntvirtuehow? That would be a very good reason to feel burnt out and not want any more
@@burntvirtuelike Rider and Will were not primary cast on Girl Meets World but he was. Everyone is entitled to say when as it relates to the work. They have to commit to it everyday.
My guess is it’s his wife. They started stated dating 4 years ago, but 3 years ago is when he cut everyone off. They just got married this year.
It makes no sense for political to be the reason. The whole world knows of his acting past and about his strong bonds with his old cast mates. It’s not like any bombshells are going to be dropped.
She’s probably jealous of the friendships. Maybe she felt left out when they were always reminiscing or maybe she thought he was too close with Danielle. I could be wrong, but that’s what I’m betting on.
I can believe that
Well stated. This is a very valid explanation!
Her family and him are all werid
They defend groomers
@@Bls-of1ld
Well he is a Democrat so it kinda makes sense
I understand he’s busy and he’s focusing on different things in his life like being a politician but these people have known him their whole lives you don’t just cut positive people like that out there’s no excuse for it. Yes I understand people move on but he just simply stopped talking to all them. These guy’s have a history with him. It’s rather sad
Well said, and I agree
Well said agree
Don’t forget, him and his brother are not very nice.
It’s probably different political beliefs. Maybe he feels all high and mighty too. Shame really
These ppl defend groomers
I raised my children watching Boy meets world. I still watch both series, Boy meets😢 world and Girl meets world. You're all very good Actor's 🎉 It's always a good idea to😢 have shows such as these. Hint hints Disney 🎉.
I’m gathering it’s due to his new political career. Maybe his team thinks I won’t look professional politically. Idk just a theory. But I do love that podcast though!
Yeppppp he doing stupid political stuff now...
Having a political career shouldn't stop you from talking to old friends. That's not an excuse.
@@DavidKen878 Maybe he doesn't think of them as friends.They were coworkers and It's possible he's just not interested in talking to them. People move on.
@@larissalaflore7202 Exactly. I don't know why people are bringing up his political career.
@@larissalaflore7202If he doesn't consider them friends, then why has he spent the last couple of decades acting like he does? It's obvious that he doesn't consider Trini or Matilda friends, but he still held Danielle's newborn. That wasn't long at all before he stopped talking to them.
Some people dont understand that the ghoster might have ghosted if he or she felt like the people he ghosted would not accept or understand any reason he COULD give for stopping communication.
Plus if he had given them a reason they might have run their mouths to the media about it so what was he supposed to do?
I personally ghosted a blood relative after years of trying to have a good relationship. It came down to me asking if we could have a discussion about some concerns and when my request was declined i asked once more.
The answer again was no. So I ended the relationship.
My guess is that the cast has SOME IDEA (maybe not the whole story) about why he ghosted but they wont speculate out loud.
Plus bens brother Fred was absolutely RAKED over the coals from colleagues accusing him of things. Its possible that watching Fred deal with that just made Ben want to keep a smaller circle.
That’s cowardly
@@millennialaviation no it's not. Did you ever give people you were friends with at 10 years old an explanation about why you're not friends with them at age 40? No? Well I guess that means you "ghosted" them too.
It's crazy because me and my wife were the Cory and Topanga of our school and named our son Cory. To grow up with someone and suddenly just walk away with no explanation is really shitty.
You and your wife are just that. Husband and wife. They were just friends. Sometimes friends act shitty and deserve to be walked away from.
@@josereyes1148 that is true but for only one person out of the entire cast to turn their back on everybody shows who it is that was the problem
You know I was watching the video before this video it had the same title except for another video I could feel a lot of hate energy towards Ben Savage. But in this video I can see that you guys are trying to come in contact with Ben Savage and seeing if he's okay and and that you guys still care about him. Talking about that video made me cry broke my heart the way they were talking about Ben Savage that video had a lot of hate towards him.
This is such a shame I think Ben Savage is being very selfish and for him to do this to people who’s he’s known and grown up with for 30 years is very sad and disappointing
dont know the whole story
@@curtisrohling5852 what is the whole story care to explain
Agreed
He’s running for congress
Oh really wow. Republican or democrat ?
@@i.i1215 i also I was very surprised to learn this a few months ago.
He is running as a democrat in California
Bingo.
We still love you Ben. Cory will never be forgotten
They were prob all bummed at first til they realized they only gotta split the bread 3 ways instead of 4 😂
Maybe yall defending groomers was to much
I miss him so much 😊❤❤❤please get him on the podcast 😊
Didn’t Ben and Danielle came together 2 years ago for a Panera commercial?????
Likely filmed well before then
i'm guessing Savage wants to move on and do other things with his life. Imagine being in your 40s and everyone is still associating you with a job you had as a kid. "Ghosting" is never polite but it seems to me some of the other actors from this show need to move on as well. The fact that they decided to go public with their grievance points to a lack of professionalism and I'm starting to see why he's not returning their calls.
He just did girl meets world a few years back and up until 2022 was continuing to act in plenty of other projects. More than likely it’s his wife. They started dating 4 years ago, 3 years ago he stopped talking to everyone, and he just got married to her this year. People don’t drop life long friendships that have continued well into adult hood over night. But people do drop life long friends because of a jealous partner or because their partner and friends don’t get along.
Dude what?
Did Ben cut them out after they wrote letters defending Brian Peck? hmmm
This
But this was from a year ago so I don’t think so
@@Adam25826 the info could have gotten to ben without the media - will and rider prob talked about it in some capacity
@@seajayste He cut them out of his life nearly four years ago. And Danielle didn't write a letter defending Brian Peck. That's not what this is about.
He’s probably going through some things and this might force him to at least tell them what’s going on… he didn’t look healthy on girl meets world, if you ask me.
He probably has family and other friends to talk to. These people were co-workers. Maybe he doesn't have anything to say to them. Telling this information to force him to communicate doesn't seem right.
@@larissalaflore7202I don’t think they put this out there like that. That was a story for the podcast I’m guessing and ET probably took it and blew it up to make Savage look like a flake. They been tight forever up until said incident. I really think Ben has family issues and probably just wants to clear his head before he talks to anyone. at least that’s the vibe I got.
Here is exactly what happened from a source. Ben introduced Tessa to Danielle and Danielle was short with her. Later that day Danielle told Ben she thought he could do better. Ben was upset and ghosted Danielle. He wasn’t close to Rider or Will.
whats the source? trust me bro? lmfaooo
He's in politics. Staying out of the Hollywood limelight is smart. When someone suddenly drops out of people's lives, you should respect that. As long as you left on good terms, then what's the problem?
Friends and Family > Politics.
Shouldn't have to explain that to you but you're probably sucking a corporation off as we speak.
He was my favorite on the show..
I feel like that in the moment right now. Worried that I might be getting ghosted by my best friend, but in the life of an adult maintaining relationships while trying to live is tough
I love that clip at the end with topanga.
I think a lot of us have had friends in our lives that we were close to for years and all then eventually just stop talking to you.
After what happened to Drake bell and the alleged support letters to Brian peck that rider and will wrote I feel like Ben knows stuff we don't know
He’s the Beyoncé of the group.
😂😂😅😅 I laughed too hard at this
I don't blame Ben at all... Especially when listening to the podcast
What do you mean?
@@HeyItsMe1224 They mostly bad mouth the episodes, and say what should've or what they would've done or written differently. In my opinion it's very rare when they say something nice about it. Season 1 they loved. A season most of us really don't like. Season 2 and on (seasons most of us love) they mostly trash it.
@@DarkHeart515 no actually, the fan favorite seasons were 3 and 4 and they have done those seasons justice. And they never even bad mouth Ben. It’s a great podcast.
@@HeyItsMe1224 Agree to disagree, because the show really started in season 2... I never said they bad mouth Ben... I said the show.
@@DarkHeart515 hm interesting, I didn’t get the vibe that they loved season 1, they trashed it a lot 😭😂
they were close for years after the show, I think... this is actually concerning. hope he's alright.
I imagine he's just focused on his political career. He probably worries they will convince him to juggle both even though he has no time to help with their project simultaneously. It feels like they arent sending hi hows your family hows your life messages. Just we need you to do the podcast nagging. And if they are constantly coercing him into it he may find it easier to step away than continue to have to let them down and feel guilt. Hes doing things that could help people. Maybe they can try to respect that, understand his boundaries and support his current path. After he's in office and has some time, he may offer.
That’s not a reason to cut off friends. But he did cut them off a year into dating his now wife who he just married this year. She may be jealous or maybe something weird happened that she was uncomfortable with
@@LED816 If he cut them off prior to his new path and the podcast, then I would hope there is healing conversation. It would be a concerning sign if it is relative to a new relationship. Cutting off friends/family is a hallmark of being in an abusive and controlling relationship. Hoping if he's in that situation he can recognize it and get out fast.
@@LED816 my hope is also that if he merely is struggling with not wanting to disappoint his friends that he finds a way to express this soon and they can go back to close. A break from people in times where you are juggling a lot and attempting to avoid disappointing others while you focus is not abandonment. It takes some space for finding words to express your feelings and thoughts at times.
@@Jenahh-aye the pod cast just started last year. He was still acting in 2022. His political career is very new. They haven’t talked to him in THREE years. One year after he started dating his now wife.
That is a very long time. Idk when he began the early leg work for his political bid, or them for the podcast, but it could be cause for concern. I do hope they can work through whatever the catalyst was and he will find his way back to a close relationship with his friends. And soon. Having their input and love would certainly make his new journey better. And they deserve some communication and a chance to explain their side of whatever action he may be upset about. They each seem like very wonderful people.
That is such a big shame. Why would he ghost them? They knew each other for years its just really sad.
Probably because his brother, Fred Savage, was accused of sexual harassment. Now he’s maintaining a low profile
Right on target.
@@kobrakitsch877 Well Fred Savage being a "Savage" actually dates all the way back to 1993 and this was the real reason The Wonder Years got cancelled. The unfilmed ending was written in which Jack and Norma were planning their honeymoon, the one they never had. Kevin graduates high school and is excepted to the college of his choice. He rushes home to tell his parents the great and news and finds his father Jack dead on the floor. Hence ends the series. And there you have it.😢🌹🪦🙏
My theory is Boy Meets World was created originally at first as a distraction because it aired only 3 months after The Wonder Years ended. I mean, they even handpicked out Ben Savage for the role and it's a coming of age show too.
Ben Savage is running for congress, so he's not doing a good job of being low profile. 😂
@@SuperMarioBrosIII
What was the real reason way back in 1993 ?? Dan Lauria, the actor who played Kevin's father, says there was no death.
Sometimes people are toxic and dont know it. There were a number of bad stories about Danielle behind the scenes and none about Ben. How she treated McGee for example. Maybe Ben just doesn't want that in his life anymore. Let's not just assume they are in the right and he is in the wrong because they are more vocal about it.
Yeah something is off.
I wish that Ben was on the show podcast ❤😊😊😊❤❤😊😊
I love all of yall so much
It would be killer to meet and talk with you guys
It’s in the name Ben SAVAGE. Is anybody surprised a guy like Ben Savage would just disappear? I’m more surprised that Rider Strong is still in the mix. If ANYBODY would run away from all things Boy Meets World, I would think it would be him. He was easily the best actor on the show and could have done great things if he just stuck with acting.
Didn't they do Girl Meets World recently?
Years ago.
Almost 10 years ago💀 it came out in 2014, and ended 6 years ago in 2017.
I can understand this happening after BMW but surprised it happened after they all reunited for GMW. I hope he knows that BMW is truly a masterpiece and my comfort show
Rachel really out here living that opening
I see now why it’s only Daniel, Ryder and Will doing the Podcast. I mean if he’s fully focused on his political career then good for him. Usually when you have management team in politics they force you to speak with certain people. It’s sad but it happens.
Will and Ryder are obnoxious af on their podcast, that may have something to do with it. Daniel seems cool, but those two seem like they can get super pompous. If Ben is a down to earth person, I could totally see him not wanting to hang out with them. I stopped watching that Pod Meets World about 3 episodes in because I couldn't take 'em.
He’s running for congress, any and every said on the show could be taken out of context. That’s more important than the podcast.
I don't see what the big deal is. They were co-workers. Work isn't supposed to be a place to make lifelong friends. I, personally, have lost connection with all my past co-workers, including the ones I met in the film industry.
Yeah? Did you work on a hit show for 7 years since the age of 11 with the same people, then play the same character for 4 more years on a sequel series and do countless convention appearances alongside them...and suddenly vanish? That ain't just being "co-workers".
There has to be a reason. Maybe they don't know what it is but there has to be one and I'm sure Ben knows it
I'm a bit shocked that Ben is behaving this way! These are like childhood friends...He doesn't owe them anything but they were all there for each other over the years. Who cares about politics? It's sad!! Grow up Ben! Come on!
Didn’t he and Danielle just make a Super Bowl commercial together a year or so ago?
Ppl do not have to be the same way forever jeez Louise. I don’t understand why it’s necessary to take his decision to not be Corey Matthews forever or be talking Boy Meets World solely because many of us find this nostalgic or his cast care to continue on. There’s so many reasons he could not want to be involved and to ignore that is just silly. There are so many of us who switch careers for a myriad of reasons as well as friendships or relationships and most are not “I hate everyone” but rather “this is not who I am or my path any longer”.
It's sad he can't at least tell them why he isn't talking anymore. It would be nice to at least give them a common courtesy. I get we change and just because they were on a beloved sitcom doesn't mean their friends or still friends I get that but we as fans would like them to all reunite and at least him having that bond with them you would think he could at least just tell them something.
Ben became a politician thats what happens
Yeah notice the don't mention that, sad.
Why isn’t Angela part of the podcast?
Bro this is heartbreaking but I’ve been watching Boy Meets World again for like the 12th time and I’ve noticed that towards the end it seemed like Ben Savage didn’t want to do it anymore and it leaked into the character he played but then he surprised me by appearing on Girl Meets World so maybe I don’t know what I’m talking about 😂😂
It's shitty that he ghosted them but if he was just tired of being associated with this show and this character, I could understand. Corey Matthews and the world of Boy Meets World has taken up so much of Ben's life, I could at least understand, but not agree with, if he felt the only way he could get a break is if he cut all relation to it completely.
Maybe he's focusing on congress now.
I Still love Topanga
People change aome times we groe as a person some times we have to fo separate eays am estranged from my family since my parents dievoce in 2010i onky see them for hikidsys every other year 😢i done trying to have a relationship cyt tire for ever some tirms it better to go Separate wasys some times you cant fix thing
Probably to do with his attempt to get into politics cutting off people who could hurt him if gets into a disagree with likely due to them basically growing up together they probably have things he wishes to remain secret so he cutting everyone who could hurt him also political views could be a factor as Rider and Ben used to go opposite sides of political issues when they were younger.
There is also the possibility it could be related to his wife who he married in 2023 she could have asked him to cut them off which is possible as they were couple at the time.
I'm leaning more towards it's for political reasons cutting off risks.
He reminds me of Shia laBeouf
Why? Has he gotten in trouble? Is he an alcoholic? Has he been beaten women?
When I was a kid I thought they where the same person!
@@EricaShady10171972 interesting that out of all the things that it could be , you chose some low vibration response. Seems like a personal issue from your past
Even Stevens reminded me of Boy Meets World.
@@EricaShady10171972 stop spreading lies
I'm not judging Ben. Who knows what their actual personal relationships or anything that went down between them. I'm guessing more went down none of them want to share.
Isn’t Ben running for congress
That's what happens when you get married.
It feels incomplete without Corey smh
Rider strong has turned into Mark Hamil
He's probably with that other girl he kissed.
Hi is it ghosting if he just said listen I want to focus on other things.
Guys he’s a professional politician he doesn’t have time for tv gigs he’s helping the workd
*world
True and I think that is fine. I think what they are more talking about it how he ghosted them and will not talk with them.
Even with other politicians they still have friends and make time.
You don't have to take TV gigs to talk to your co-stars. Those two things are not mutually exclusive.
@@jom678 Reminds me of the Mark Paul Gosselaar and the late Dustin Diamond ghosting situation, was it Dustins 1998 tell all book, nope? Was it something Dustin did or said during the years they worked together on Saved By The Bell?! We may never know the truth! 🤔🙄🤨🤷♂
@SuperMarioBrosIII I did not know this happed. I only in the past few years heard of saved by the bell, since the reboot. I went and watched a bunch of the originals. I thought they were all friends irl because of all the hype of the reboot. I thought he was not in it because he died. I guess you never know what happens🤷♀️ it is just sad.
Something is going on that we don’t know about
I know I'm not the only one who feels unreasonably upset about this. 😂😂😢
Y can’t do it without Ben 😊
That happens in real life There Was a kid I grow up when we got old we haven't talked over 20 year
Not nice to ghost, but I also commend Ben for not dwelling in the past.
Could be because of Ben Savage new relationship, perhaps it's a controlling relationship that changed his life upside down.
Bring Ben back 😊
Goodness Topanga has gotten even prettier 😮
I understand they are actors and want to stay in the spotlight I suppose but why does this have to be shared? Cause all the fans want to know I suppose
This might be a weird thing, but maybe Kevin Arnold, the guy from The Wonder Years his actual brother Fred Savage could actually get him to talk. Maybe I don’t know would be nice though.
Fred Savage too busy sexually assaulting women

Honestly can't blame his costars are entitled aholes who treat their fans poorly
Tapanga want Shawn 20 years later
Ok so he did tell them what he wanted to do and how he wanted to pursue other things? Ok see I commented before I watched the whole video.
Ben doesn’t want hellywood any longer…He actually sees the Light.
