The Unauthorized Saved by the Bell Story Stars Reveal Which Iconic Scenes They Loved Reenacting!

Lifetime has traveled back to the 90s with its upcoming Unauthorized Saved by the Bell Story premiering on Labor Day. Discovered by the same casting director from Saved by the Bell, the actors step into the shoes of the Saturday morning show's stars to expose the behind-the-scenes antics.



Have the show's fans accepted the new crew? “It's been sort of a mixed response,” said Dylan Everett, who played Mark-Paul Gosselaar/Zack Morris. “It was sort of what we expected. There's diehard fans who love ‘Saved by the Bell’ and what it is, and they expect to see their favorite actors portray their favorite characters. So, there's a bit of a stigma there.”



Tiera Skovbye, who played Elizabeth Berkley/Jessie Spano, added, “I think a lot people don't realize that this is what happened behind the scenes. Some people think we're trying to recreate their show. We're not doing that.”



Written by Ron McGee and based on “past cast interviews and behind the scenes footage” (and not the controversial Dustin Diamond book as some wrongly believe), the movie does include some reenactments of the show's most memorable scenes.



Skovbye teased her reenactment of probably the most famous scene from the entire series. One hint.











The Cast Responds To Original Stars' Concerns!




Original series stars Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Mario Lopez, Elizabeth Berkley and Dennis Haskins have all expressed concerns about how they'll be portrayed in the flick.



But they've all assumed the film is based on Dustin Diamond's book, which Lifetime tells us is not the case. They also say Screech is not an executive producer on the flick, despite reports suggesting otherwise -- and add that the show's original casting director, Robin Lippin, worked with them for the script.



The new film's Zack and Jessie, played by Dylan Everett and Tiera Skovbye, talked to toofab's Brian Particelli before the TV movie premiere -- where they addressed the initial backlash.



"Give it a shot, you gotta watch and tune in and find out and I think people are going to be very pleasantly surprised by it," Everett says. "They're gonna walk away satisfied and it's really a love letter to the show. I think people are gonna enjoy it and walk away feeling good about it."
