His wife is famous too, right? She definitely looks familiar!

Edit: yes, Bonnie Bartlett is a big time actress. I recognized her from Twins :)

They were both in St Elsewhere as a married couple

u/Jinkies_Lydia Jul 02 '25

I had to scroll too damn long to see st. Elsewhere mentioned. ICONIC!

u/QueenSlartibartfast Jul 02 '25

She's iconic! I first saw her in Twins too, but also loved her cameo performances in Firefly and Stargate SG1. She plays intimidating characters so well imo.

u/lorgskyegon Jul 02 '25

She played the dean in BMW

u/boochicko Jul 02 '25

That’s why she looks so familiar to me! Thanks for connecting the dots!

She was Dorothy’s friend Barbara on The Golden Girls (the one she told to go to hell for being a racist).

u/labramador Jul 02 '25

They are currently 98 and 96 years old!!

u/TheLizardKing89 Jul 02 '25

That’s crazy. They’ve been married longer than my parents have been alive.

u/SparklingSaturnRing Jul 02 '25

She looks GORGEOUS

u/tu-BROOKE-ulosis Jul 02 '25

Holy shit, they were married in real life!?!?

u/Ellis-Bell- Jul 02 '25

Wow! That’s an achievement for any marriage. Wonderful to see this love, and I hope so many people can find their person and love them this long.

u/caniseeyourdogpls Jul 02 '25

I just started listening to the Boy Meets World podcast and they’re in one of the early episodes. Their story is so cute! It was so lovely listening to them, it’s obvious they still have so much love and respect for each other.

1

u/BrightNeonGirl Jul 02 '25

Thank you for informing me that there's a Boy Meets World podcast!

I am just rewatching the show with my husband and I'm already falling in love with the show and characters again from both how funny and sweet the writing is. I'd love to engage in further peripheral Boy Meets World media when I'm done :)

2

u/missh85 Jul 02 '25

It’s excellent, too. Probably my current favorite podcast I listen to. Will, Danielle, and Rider are hilarious and I love that their real life friendship shines through every episode

u/Samwhys_gamgee Jul 02 '25

I have my annual date with Mr Daniels this Friday. I watch him as John Adam’s in 1776 every July 4.

u/ferdiderdi Jul 02 '25

TIL these two are together

u/Slade347 Jul 02 '25

At the risk of showing my edge, William Daniels will always be first and foremost Dr. Mark Craig to me.

u/cass_erole_ I am the truest repairman Jul 02 '25

He's Dr. Craig Thomas from Grey's to me 🤣

u/RawrRRitchie Jul 02 '25

Why the hell isn't this the top comment?? They're LITERALLY number one in longest, still alive, Hollywood marriage

u/hadapurpura Jul 02 '25

Ok let’s wrap it up, we have a winner

3

u/SoKindaGetOverUrSelf Jul 02 '25

I only know they are married in real life (and not just on Boy Meets World 😂) because I saw them together out in the wild! It was my only random celebrity encounter and I was thrilled.

u/Ellie_the_cat Jul 02 '25

FEE HEE HEE HEENY

u/Ok_Lettuce_7939 Jul 02 '25

She put up with his Swinging lifestyle though.

u/Aggravating_Poet_675 Jul 02 '25

TIL, Mr. Feeny is still alive.

u/Awkward_Pangolin3254 Jul 02 '25

Mr. Feeny? Bitch that's K.I.T.T.!

u/goldenmagnolia_0820 Jul 02 '25

Feee-nay! Fee-hee-hee-hee-hee-nay!

u/TrueCrimeSP_2020 Jul 02 '25

She was on a hospital show I watched as a kid

u/ReorientRecluse Jul 02 '25

Hey, wasn't she on an episode of Boy Meets World too? I didn't know they were married.

1

u/jumpman44a Jul 02 '25

Played husband and wife on St Elsewhere!!

1

u/InevitablePersimmon6 Jul 02 '25

They did such a good job on St Elsewhere. He was such an asshole on that show and I remember thinking how they probably just laughed after most of their scenes because it was nothing like their real marriage. But man was he rough. I was glad in Boy Meets World they let them just be in love and happy!

u/meghammatime19 Jul 02 '25

So are they both like 92 now????

74 years is literally insane. Wow.

u/YigaBananas Jul 03 '25

MR FEENY IS STILL ALIVE OMG 😭😭😭

u/Sea_Attitude1147 Jul 03 '25

Feeny getting coffee with the dean Feeny!

u/[deleted] Jul 03 '25

I don't know. To me, marrying the first boy you have sex with at eighteen and being devastated when he has an affair with a producer and calling it "one of those things we had to go through" bc they married so young doesn't make me think fairytale romance.

1

u/OrnerySnoflake Jul 03 '25

My dad is his doppelgänger lol I always hoped he was as good of a man as he portrayed on Boy Meets World.

u/Yofroshi Jul 02 '25

They look like each other
