The character, "Dana Pruitt" on
Boy Meets World (1993), was a
tribute to Dayna who was an avid fan of the show, and frequently visited the set in addition to her two guest appearances. Ironically, the role of "Dana" was played by
Larisa Oleynik, who starred on
The Secret World of Alex Mack (1994), on which the real-life Dayna was a recurring character.
