Saved by the Bell almost didn’t survive—but its unexpected ripple effect changed TV forever.

Here's how Zack, Kelly, Slater, Jessie, Lisa, Screech, and Mr. Belding survived a canceled Disney pilot, bizarre cast changes, and the infamous "Tori Paradox" to accidentally transform the television landscape for 30 years.

My only issue with the show was the show's lack of continuity. We only saw Slater's Germany girlfriend once and his sister only once. His secret admirer from the final beach club episode was only shown during just that one episode too. Jesse's stepbrother was only shown during his two-part episode as well. Did he go back to New York?

God bless you always!!!
