As many of you know, I am an avid magazine junkie, and every Thursday afternoon/Friday morning, I run to the Walgreens on the corner and pick up my weekly jewels. As of late, I have been very disappointed with the over-exposure of Jon & Kate, or Jessica Simpson's love life, but this past Friday, my heart smiled when I walked in, turned down the magazine aisle and
gasp! saw my pre-teen idols plastered on the front of People magazine. That's right, Saved by the Bell is back!
According to
People Magazine, the gang's back together and a reunion is in the works. The article interviews each of the show's main characters, doing a quick recap on their favorite SBTB moment and character quirks. According to
Elizabeth Berkley, who played brainiac Jessie Spano, "it feels like we just picked up where we left off."
But one main characted was not featured in the
People spread: ever-lovable Screech, played by the norotious
Dustin Diamond. Although SBTB put Diamond and Screech on the map, it's been his erractic array of Reality TV appearances and pornography videos that have followed him in the years following Bayside High. He is even allegedly writing a Saved by the Bell tell-all. Is former best friend Zack, played by
Mark-Paul Gosselaar, worried?? "Nah? What can he say? That we were banging groupies at 14?...It's entertaining, but it's sad."
I, for one, can't wait for this little gem to come to fruition! In the words of Miss Spano herself, "I'm So Excited!"
