So why is Dustin Diamond so bitter?

I have read a lot of things about this guy and nothing positive is ever said about him. I read that he is bitter towards the cast and crew of SBTB and that he doesn't get a lot of work these days. Sure, he may land a few roles here and there and was on a few reality shows in the past, but this guy isn't getting a lot of work like Mark-Paul Gosselar or Mario Lopez do, both of whom had their ups and downs post-SBTB, though MP was on NYPD Blue and is on Franklin & Bash.

I have also read that his book is not a great read. I don't think I would want to touch it with 20 foot pole, even if I saw it at a library.

I think what sort of hurt his career was that he still portrayed Screech even after The College Years had ended and stayed on in The New Class as Belding's assistant.

I remember people talking about how the creators of SBTB wanted to do a reunion movie, whether a TV movie or theatrical release, or just a simple reunion special with just the cast and crew. However, if that were to happen, I doubt Dustin Diamond would be part of it, being as bitter as he is and I have read that even the rest of the cast didn't really like him. I know most casts for TV shows have professional relationships, some don't always end up in friendships and just remain on a professional level, but I have read that no one ever liked him.

And what is Mark Paul doing? I haven't seen hair nor hide of him anywhere.

he's currently starring on Franklin and Bash and doing some movies in downtime

... as for Screech Powers - he's bitter because he's a loser and a one-trick pony; the only way he can get a laugh is by being "Screech", and he feels he's too good for that now. Every time I've seen him on any reality show, interview, or clips of his stand-up act (hah), he seems like a complete jerk and a douche.

LOL...I don't even know what Franklin and Bash is.

Didn't Dustin Diamond try and do porn or something unconventional at one point?

Sort of. Dustin tried his hand at the celebrity sex tape thing in a desperate, pathetic attempt to get attention. The video featured him and a couple of nasty white trash ho bags engaging in various sex acts, the most infamous of which is when Mr. Diamond gives one of the girls a "dirty sanchez." I'm not going to explain what that is if you don't know as it's too graphic for this board. Just Google it if you're curious.

You can probably find the video itself very easily on a streaming porn site if you like, but I really wouldn't recommend it. It's pretty gross.

So why hasn't Mark Paul Goosy done anything major since SBTB? He was the star of the show and looked like the next Rick Schroeder but then basically disappeared.

Mario Lopez has gotten a lot more attention since. I hated how he always tried to act so cool on SBTB but he really was NOT!!

Dead Man on Campus (major theatrical release; 1998)
NYPD Blue (2001-2005)
Commander in Chief (2005-2006)
Raising the Bar (2008-2009)
Franklin & Bash (2011-present)

Nothing major? Are you this silly on purpose? I'd argue that he's the most successful alumnus of the show.

I don't watch any of those shows so that's why! I haven't even heard of the last 3 you listed.

I've seen Mario Lopez on Extra and ET and stuff like that so he seems to have gotten more exposure than Goosy Goosy.

Oh, I see. So whether or not you, Big3sCompanysFan, have heard of a person's projects is the barometer of success.

Acting in critically-acclaimed dramas = obscurity; hosting entertainment gossip shows = Hollywood royalty.

Dustin once claimed that his parents stole money from him. This might have a lot to do with his bitterness.

i am sure lots of people stole money from him and took advantage of him along the way - its part of the wonder of being a child star !

That's what made Gary Coleman bitter too. He said his parents stole most of $18 million!

I saw Dustin on an episode of The Celebrity Biggest Loser and I mean losing weight and he was a total *******.

You mean Celebrity Fit Club? Yeah, I remember his shenanigans on that show. If that's the way he is in real life, then I don't understand how anyone can stand to be in his presence for more than 5 minutes.
