Saved by the Bell Project Update: Graduation

Well kids, what started as a two to three day marathon has turned into a weeks long journey.  But we’ve finally reached the end of the Saved by the Bell line, “Graduation.”  With the benefit of time we know what eventually happens to the gang, but when we first saw this episode we didn’t know if Zack and Kelly would end up together or if this was it for them.  It was the end of their youth, and we like to think that for the actors, from Mark-Paul to Lark to Dustin, it felt like they were actually graduating.  It was truly a milestone moment for all of us.

Alright, let’s get to it.  Get your tissues ready.

What a face, eh?  The kind of visage you could set your clocks to.

Checking in With ‘SBTB’: S5

We’re 1/3 of the way through the fifth and final season of Saved by the Bell.  We’re having a real trouble stomaching the Tori episodes, more than we ever remembered, but we’re soldiering on.  Two more discs and our journey will be complete.

We’re also thinking about parting our hair the other way.  Thoughts?

Valentine’s Day: Zack and Kelly’s European Vacation

Happy Valentine’s Day!  As usual, Jumped the Snark is going to live vicariously through Zack and Kelly, a love for the ages.  But even though Zack and Kelly eventually ended up together, we always felt that Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Tiffani Thiessen were destined to emulate their on-screen love. If we couldn’t have Thiessen, then the next best thing, really the only other acceptable outcome, would have been Gosselaar winning her.  But, alas, they went their separate ways, and found love elsewhere.  But there was a brief window at the end of Saved by the Bell when they did date and for that brief time, at least, everything was perfect.

Somehow this YouTube user found photos from Gosselaar’s and Thiessen’s European vacation (we’re going to assume/hope it wasn’t by going through their personal photo albums), and the chemistry between the two is undeniable.  While this is a record of a romance that didn’t make it, it’s better to have loved and lost Tiffani Thiessen than to have never loved Tiffani Thiessen at all.

Some things can be too good, and we understand that now.

‘Saved by the Bell’ Season 4!

Season 4, as per the DVDs.  Basically a lot of episodes that are square pegs in round holes, but arguably some of the show’s best.  Certainly several of our favorites.  Here we go, guys!

3:42pm, Season 4, Disc 1, Episode 1: “SAT’s”

01:41: The SAT’s episode!

01:55: Probably the most frequent nugget of Saved by the Bell trivia is “What was Zack’s SAT score?”

2:25: Kelly, no talking!  That’s cheating!

02:35: I don’t think they had any trains traveling in opposite directions word problems on the SATs.  This episode is just riddled with inaccuracies.

02:40: Ladies and gentleman, Mrs. Ben Stiller, Christine Taylor!

Still to come: Desert Springs, Johnny Dakota and Zack Attack!

Season 3 Update: Guess Who’s Coming to Bayside

Midway through Saved by the Bell Season 3, and midway through the “Wicked Stepbrother” two-parter, we pause for a quick progress report.

The main thing we’ve learned so far is that we look TERRIBLE on a FlipCam.  Or possibly all the time.

“The Last Dance:” Zack and Kelly Break-Up and We Were Never the Same

A special video update after “The Last Dance,” the episode in which Kelly cheats on Zack with that jerk Jeff and our world comes crashing down.  Not to get too Kevin Arnold on you, but when we first watched Zack and Kelly break-up a little bit of our childhood slipped away.
