She continues: “It brings up so many fond memories of a simpler time. On the other hand, I’m like, ‘Oh, man … these creaky knees that I have!’ "

In June, Fishel reflected on why the fictional couple’s relationship resonated with so many, saying on an episode of her rewatch podcastPod Meets Worldthat the couple seemed to truly love one another.

“Just to see teenagers who love each other winning and and it being taken seriously,” Fishel explained. “Everyone’s telling you when you’re a teenager, ‘You don’t know what love is,’ and you just want someone to say, ‘Maybe you do. Maybe this is real. Maybe you’re right and this is forever and we’re wrong.’ ”

Still, in a conversation with PEOPLEat 90s Con in early 2024, Fishel shared she thought Cory and Topanga were too young to get married.

“Yes! Of course we were,” she said when asked. “Now, it worked out for them, and kudos to them, and there are always going to be those success stories. There are stories of it working out but I would say, on a whole, getting married right out of high school is not usually ideal.”
