Almost everyshow that is near the end of its run somtimes repeats itself. What episodes do you think are very similar to another episode. Alot of you have said The New Class episodes are ripoffs of the original series episodes. I am not familar with the New Class.

But I have two episodes from the original series that are very similar. I think that ep. 8.7 "Save the Last dance for me" and 12.1 "The Fight" are very similar. Though the first one was done during the Junior High season and originally from a different show. I really don't consider it the same show but the producer and syndicators do. So I will count the Junior High season has part of the original series.

In "Save the Last Dance" and "The Fight" Zack battles one of his close (dark curly haired) friends (Mickey and Slater) over a girl and it involves a school dance.

Normally the first episode is better than the rip off epsidoe but in this case I think "The Fight" is a better episode.

First of all Slater is a much much better character than Mickey (the only Good Morning Miss Bliss character who I thought really deserved to be fired). Second it had some good subplots for example Belding's hair and I really thought it was funny when Belding tells his story "And then Darling walked into our lives.", then Zack and Slater respond with "So what." Also the b story with Lisa asking a freshman to the dance. I loved the scence when she finds out he is a freshman and hear her reaction. That is funny. A pretty good episode it had a little drama in it and some laughs including the scence when Zack pays someone to pretend to be Slater's mother at the moives. Priceless.

What two episodes do you think are very similar?

I think that "Jessie's Song" and "The Rave" are similar.

Both of them involve drugs and music.

This is the similarity:

Both of the episodes involve a character being associated with drugs, and both of the episodes have music involved as a backdrop.
