While there’s been an ongoing trend of popular television shows from the ‘80s and ‘90s returning in the form of reboots—including The X-Files, Twin Peaks, Gilmore Girls and Full House—there’s at least one sitcom we don’t have to worry about coming back: Saved by the Bell.
Reading our own Clover Hope’s excellent piece about fanboy journalism today sparked a memory that’s never far from mind: In the early 1990s, beloved cool-teen magazine Sassy perfected the art of anti-fangirling, running several feature profiles on then-famous teens that reveled in brutally excoriating their subjects.…
Dustin Diamond, the actor who played Screech on Saved By the Bell, is headed to jail after ‘accidentally’ stabbing a man in a Wisconsin bar last Christmas.
Like Saved By Bell before it, Lifetime is prepping to ruin teen memories with an upcoming The Unauthorized Beverly Hills, 90210 Story.
Bruce Jenner will appear on the cover of Vanity Fair “as a woman.” This will be Jenner’s first interview and photoshoot since announcing that he was transitioning.

Dustin Diamond, whom you probably remember as Screech on Saved By the Bell, is currently on trial in Wisconsin for stabbing a man with a switchblade - an incident you probably don’t remember. The alleged events took place on “Christmas night” at a bar in Port Washington, WI, and the Journal Sentinal writes that the…
Here it is, the Saved By The Bell reunion that I'm apparently too young to appreciate! We've got Zack, Kelly, Slater, Jessie, Mr. Belding, Jimmy Fallon in a mullet wig, and a whole bunch of references to past episodes that are flying right over my head. (The Showgirls reference, on the other hand!)
Have you been known to reach for the snacks while stressed? Then you won't be shocked by this similar trick of the mind: Reminders of your own inescapable mortality will inspire you to buy, buy, buy. But those shoes are for real so cute! Def get them!
Last night, Lifetime aired what was supposed to be The Unauthorized Saved By the Bell Story filled with drugs, threesomes and terrible-but-real portrayals of America’s sweethearts. What I watched was a bunch of teenaged spats, implied sex and Screech, the friend-starved child alcoholic. Lifetime, do better.
Hey all you nostalgia-riddled trainwreck lovers! Don't forget the shitshow that is Lifetime's The Unauthorized Saved by the Bell Story will air tonight at 9/8c. Mandatory: Your finest bagged wine/homemade moonshine and a handful horrendous neon scrunchies (to set fire to, duh).
It's becoming more and more apparent that Lifetime's upcoming movie The Unauthorized Saved by the Bell Story is one giant shitshow. And there's a chance it's not authorized because no one actually knows what the hell is happening. Not even Dustin Diamond, who wrote the book on which the made-for-TV movie was based.
Lifetime's campy Saved By The Bell movie is coming on Labor Day whether you like it or not, and it might be so bad that it's good. Real movie quote: "The network didn't kill us but the hormones might." Count me in.
As the agonizing seconds between now and the Labor Day airdate of The Unauthorized Saved By The Bell Story on Lifetime tick by, there's little respite for fans who simply cannot wait to learn what really happened behind the scenes of a teen sitcom that aired two decades ago. But now — thank god — there's another…
Last week Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Breckin Meyer called Dustin Diamond (beloved nerd Screech of Saved By the Bell) "negative" and "such a dick." This week, Diamond, the self-proclaimed "bad boy" of Bayside is biting back with some bombshells of his own. Like the fact that his porno was faked. Is there nothing sacred…
The first trailer for Lifetime's Saved by the Bell made for TV movie, The Unauthorized Saved by the Bell Story, premiered today on BuzzFeedand we are in for a treat. The film is based off of disgruntled star Dustin Diamond's tell-all book where he basically talks shit about all his fellow cast members while revealing…
In an interview at Cannes, Kanye West offered some opinions on the design and layout of Instagram: basically, it's okay, people like it and everything, but Kanye could do better.
Seems Lifetime has decided to devote itself wholly to a #TBT content strategy. First came Flowers in the Attic; then they announced Aaliyah and Whitney Houston biopics; and now you can set your DVRs for The Unauthorized Saved by the Bell, scheduled to debut Labor Day weekend.
So I'm enjoying my snow-free snow day and I'm watching some Saved By the Bell because WHY WOULDN'T I? I'm watching Home For Christmas, Part 1 (Season 4, Episode 24 - GOOD MORNING MISS BLISS COUNTS) and Saved By the Bell is throwing down some real truth.
And it is so, so glorious.
Do you miss seeing Lisa Turtle in a crisp white dress shirt and bolo tie paired with a geometric print spandex miniskirt, and Screech in the very same outfit? Then this supercut of all the "ooohs" from Saved By the Bell is a regular walk down memory lane.
