Saved by the Bell Rebooted

[Primal Slayer]

The trailer was...interesting. Seems a lot more over the top than the original lol. Mark as a blonde de-ages him a lot, its a good look on him. It wont happen since both were busy shooting other shows but I really want 1 episode just dedicated to the OGs.

I wonder why Lark didn't come back. We already know why Screech didn't.

She wasn't asked. She's been left out of all of the reunions the cast has done the past 10 years it feels like because she's had mental issues and from the sounds of it they use that as an excuse instead of actually checking in on her. Though there is a rumor that she was ultimately asked back for a cameo. Either way, doesnt sit well with me with how they've seemingly handled her.

I guess they're not getting anyone from Saved by the Bell: The College Years?

According to this article she will make a guest appearance.

The ‘Saved by the Bell’ Reboot — 'Saved by the Bell' Nostalgia

Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Tiffani Thiessen, and Lark Voorhies — Zack Morris, Kelly Kapowski, and Lisa Turtle, respectively — will all make reboot appearances. The only original cast member who won't be returning this season is Dustin Diamond's lovable Screech. He's referenced throughout the season, but he doesn't make a cameo appearance. "You never know," Lopez says about the possibility that Diamond will show up in future seasons of the reboot.

Don't know how accurate it is, but it's after she said she wasn't invited back, so maybe she was afterwards.

Hopefully she does as she deserves to be part of the legacy. They should recast Screech just to really take a dig at Dustin. His book about the cast....I wouldnt want to interact with him either if I were them.

What has he said? I thought the reason he wasn't appearing was because he'd be in trouble with the law not that he'd fallen out with them. I didn't know about any book.

He wrote a book saying everyone slept with one another, that Mario raped a woman, that Tiffani slept with various male cast members/guest stars, and that MPG took steroids.

He apologized and tried to say he was taken advantage of by his "ghost writer". But he was never really "friends" with the cast and was always the outsider.

How does one get taken advantage of by their ghost writer? They don't check it? Then the ghost writer could've written anything about Dustin Diamond and Diamond would've approved it without checking.

Mario doesn't look too friendly in this interview but more like he's sceptical and challenging Diamond, understandably.

 

[Primal Slayer]

Mario is trying to pull off his best Barbara Walters and it's very funny lol. But yeah...he was trying to be professional but you could tell he couldnt care less what Dustin has to say. I wouldnt either.

They even cropped him out of the old photo lol but also sad that is the last time Lark was involved with any reunions I think.

Yeah, Lopez is an Extra Host, so I doubt we'll be getting any genuine feelings here. It's all about ratings!

Though I'd like to a be a fly on the wall when the gang gets drunk together and take turns bashing Diamond.

I'm a huge fan of the original series. I even like The College Years. But this looks like an absolute s*** show. Unless I hear very positive reviews coming from people I trust, this'll be a hard pass for me.

I read that book and did not belive a word of it. bottom line is that cast was young and single. they probably dated each other and MPG and Mario probably had weight lifting competitions no steriods needed. I'm glad Lark got a cameo though.

The new trailer does show some interesting bits with challenging the old show, and possibly 90's teen sitcoms in general. But it still isn't exactly selling itself very well.

Well....it's a song.

 

[Shinobi Shaw]

The producers need their asses kicked for okaying that theme.

What the hell was that about?

That was....a BAD remix. It was ok but its bad! And do some of the teens really need to be in fancy designer clothes? Let them be normal High Schoolers.

To be fair, they’re supposed to be rich high schoolers, they definitely weren’t normal. Remember Zach Morris and his cell phone back in the 80s?

 

[Shinobi Shaw]

I mean I graduated high school in 2008 and back then we wore designer brands too. I’d say that’s accurate IMO lol.

 

[Dark Raven]

That sounds like a bad YouTube cover that someone released. The kind of thing that people would click off after a few seconds, which I did just that.

A cellphone and dressing to the nines in dolce aren't the same imo lol. Even the teens of 90210 looked more normal but we'll see.

 

[terry78]

Bayside is supposed to be in one of the more trendier parts of L.A. I thought.

Ahem.

It was priced at $3,995 in 1984, its commercial release year, equivalent to $9,831 in 2019

I’m still upset about that butchered ass theme.

 

[Primal Slayer]

Ahem.

My point still stands. Id rather them look like normal teens then dress in high fashion

Bayside is supposed to be in one of the more trendier parts of L.A. I thought.

And it could very well be trendy just stands out more nowadays. So of course ill see how it goes throughout the show.
