I'm always up for a good Saved By the Bell post. I was just at the right age to be madly in love with Zack Morris when the show was originally on and still have a certain nostalgia for it (and Mark-Paul Gosselaar, though probably not enough to actually watch Franklin and Bash). Buzzfeed dug up a few interesting facts on the show everyone secretly watches reruns of when they're getting ready for work in the morning. A few of my favorites:
Though Kelly was scripted as Zack's girlfriend for the show, Lark Voorhies aka Lisa, was Mark-Paul Gosselaar's real-life girlfriend for three years, according to several interviews given by Gosselaar.
The set of the school was never struck down completely after the show stopped production. It has been used and redressed on many other shows since then, such as “That's So Raven” and “iCarly”.
Jennie Garth, Jaleel White, Jonathan Brandis, and Brian Austin Green all auditioned for the show.
