Dunno if id watch this except to see original cast, interesting that they are trying to bring it back.

This program led to years of torment when I was younger, why did I have to be the kid with ****ing curly hair? No, my name is not Screech FFS :mad:

Apart from a porno and a film about stripping, did any of the original cast go on to do anything successful?

Elizabeth Berkley was in CSI Miami. I think she was bad, but it was successful. That's about it tho.

I guess the guy who did porn won't be returning, I doubt any of the cast would if they had acting roles elsewhere

Does this mean we might get a sequel to it's so bad it's good - Showgirls

?

Mario Lopez looking as sharp as ever.

Mario Lopez did a lot of TV presenting and guest appearances on TV shows.
Tiffany Amber Thiessen did a lot of TV series acting. No main roles I can think of.
Marc-Paul Gosselaar did one very good TV series (Franklin and Bash) - and had a nice rumour he had died circulating for a few years.
Elizabeth Berkley - Showgirls - Nuff Said

Edit - Trailer looks rubbish

Ahhhh kelly kapowski, my first crush.

Screech can always fall back on his martial arts skills and be an MMA fighter if he doesn't get in the new series. He's not afraid to challenge Sgt Badass here.

Was in a show called the Passage too which was really promising, but got cancelled.

It's quite shocking how well the cast have aged to be honest!

I can't quite decide how it'll be, the trailer looks poor, but seems like it's poking fun at itself which might make it alright.

Elizabeth Berkley... "I'm so excited... I'm so excited... I'm so excitedddd... I'm so exciteddddddddd... I'm so scared..." Such great acting skills..

The dangers of Pro Plus young uns! Almost as hard hitting as Zammo ODing..

It just won't be the same without Mr Belding.

I hadn't realised Dustin Diamond (Screech) passed away in February, only 44 too.

They had originally planned do that episode about actual proper drugs (can't remember what one, crack or something), but the studio balked at the idea because of how "puritan" the US public are.
