It’s been 22 years since he graced the halls of Bayside High, but Mark-Paul Gosselaar still has fond memories of the show that made him a star.
“Saved by the Bell just continues to generate more and more fans,” Gosselaar, 41, tells PEOPLE. “My 11-year-old and my 9-year-old, they binge watch it!”
Now the father of Michael Charles, 11, Ava Lorenn, 9, Dekker Edward, 2 and Lachlyn Hope, 7 months, Gosselaar, who is married to Catriona McGinn, is starring in a new comedy, NBC’s Truth Be Told, premiering Oct. 16.
“My character, Mitch, is powered by guilt,” says Gosselaar with a laugh. “I have a pretty guilty conscience too. I’ll do something and it will keep me up for hours at night, like, ‘I shouldn’t have said that.’ But in general, I’m pretty neutral. I don’t get overly excited in public.”
The same certainly does not apply for rabid Saved by the Bell fans, who most recently saw Gosselaar reunite with his former costars on Jimmy Fallon‘s The Tonight Show in February.
And yes, Gosselaar did hang on to some souvenirs from the famous set two decades ago. “I kept the jacket,” he says. “It’s framed. And I have the dolls. But not too many mementoes. We weren’t sentimental back then!”
