Screech

We're sure you all remember the teen heart-throb and sandy blonde protagonist of Saved By The Bell.

The absolute hunk that was Zack Morris was played by Mark-Paul Gosselaar, who is now hoping that the show will have it's reunion on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.

Hold on to your nostalgia hats, because Saved By The Bell is set to have it's 30-year-anniversary, so we suddenly feel infinitely older.

Jimmy Fallon previously had the cast-members back for a mini-reunion on-screen in 2015, which the internet was DELIGHTED for, and the star is hoping for another TV celebration.

The 44-year-old actor shot to fame back in 1989 playing the main character of the show, and it's now renowned as one of the biggest treats of the 1990s.

The 90s fashion alone has remained iconic, but we haven't seen much of the cast since the show ended, except for Mario Lopez and Gosselaar.

Lopez, who portrayed AC Slater, has remained in the TV business through his penchant for presenting. Mark-Paul has also stayed in the industry, playing roles in NYPD Blue, Franklin & Bash and now The Passage.

Gosselaar recently spoke to Metro, and stated that there are currently no plans to get the crew back together for the anniversary; "No, we haven’t discussed anything."

He continued:

"I think the last time we did something for the 25th was with Jimmy Fallon, so possibly he might have something up his sleeve which would be great."

"I think we’d all gladly take up the offer if it was there to reprise that role with them."

PAY ATTENTION JIMMY. Give the world what it wants, and deserves.

He just did a tell-all interview with his former co-star, Mario Lopez, but it seems that Dustin Diamond is back in jail.

The Saved By The Bell star was arrested (again) after allegedly violating the terms of his parole, according to TMZ.

Dustin was taken back into custody on Wednesday, just mere weeks after being released for serving his time for disorderly conduct and concealed-weapon convictions.

The 39-year-old was found guilty of disorderly conduct and carrying a concealed weapon following a bar brawl in 2014 and spent three months in prison as a result.

Back in the day, Saved By The Bell was the TV show to watch.

It was full of teenage drama, good-looking people and romance – sure, what more could you want?

However, a lot has changed since then, and while most of the characters went on to do TV shows and movies, Screech, played by Dustin Diamond, went down a totally different path.

The once-loved goofy fellow took a dark road which included a scandalous sex tape and a stint in jail for being involved in a bar fight.

However, Dustin has just completed his time behind bars, and surprisingly, chose former co-star Mario Lopez to do a tell-all interview with.

The TV interview, which will be broadcast on Extra TV in the US, sees Dustin telling Mario about his 2009 explicit video and the infamous book he 'wrote' that trashed his Saved By The Bell days.

"I wanted to write a book about my life… I was supposed to talk to a ghostwriter for 40 hours total. I talked to a guy for 90 minutes total… another two weeks go by, and I get something in the mail, I get a copy of the book… They fabricated a whole bunch of stuff… I kind of super-railroaded on that," he tells Mario.

However, we're guessing Mario still holds a little grudge as he questions him further: "The book didn’t exactly paint a flattering picture of your fellow castmates." 

This prompted Dustin to reply: “Imagine how I feel, I haven’t talked to Marc Paul or Elizabeth or Tiffani in ages, so I can’t imagine what they think, and I’m hoping this will clear it up. It wasn’t me, I didn’t write this. I was just as shocked and appalled.”

We're looking forward to seeing the whole interview.

Things for Dustin Diamond just seem to be getting worse and worse… or weirder and weirder.

We all know he released his own porn – with himself doing the dirty deed – but now, he's been charged with stabbing a man in a bar around Christmas of 2014.

Apparently, a fight broke out in a bar that he and his girlfriend, clown Amanda Schutz (for real guys, she's an actual clown), were drinking in.

Dustin then produced a switchblade from his pocket and stabbed a man called Casey Smet.

At the court proceedings this week, Dustin and Amanda both have to pay Casey $1,500 for causing him bodily harm and Dustin is heading off to jail for four months.

When asked why he did it, Dustin said, "I figured it would take the fight out of the people."

Yep, Dustin, because having a knife will make everyone really calm.

Dustin Diamond, the actor who played Screech on Saved by the Bell, has been sentenced to four months in jail for stabbing a man during a bar fight.

The 38-year-old was found guilty and convicted of two misdemeanour charges connected with the fight that took place on Christmas Day in a pub in Wisconsin.

A jury convicted the former child star of carrying a concealed weapon and behaving in a disorderly manner.

The fight began when Dustin and his fiancée, Amanda Schutz, were in the bar and a group of allegedly drunk people started verbally harassing them.

According to reports, the actor who played Samuel ‘Screech’ Powers turned to pay his bill, and when he turned back around his fiancée was bleeding and two men were holding her hair.

The report said that “Diamond stated that he did not intentionally stab the individual in the bar but that chaos broke out and people were grabbing at him and that he swung his arms to break free.”

The victim of the stabbing was not seriously injured.

Dustin played Screech on the Saved by the Bell from 1989 to 1993, and the subsequent spinoffs that followed.
