There is a documentary on the Season Five dvd set of Saved By the Bell, and, even though our brother bought us this set for Christmas two years ago, Sally and I never noticed it until last night. But, the documentary’s really weird because it’s all about how the show was groundbreaking in terms of teen television, and how it’s so loved by so many and how it taught moral lessons and was a great learning tool for young teens, and like, what? The only people interviewed are Peter Engle and a couple of directors and writers, and then some “fanatics” named Parrot and Citron and stuff talking about how much they loved the show (and how “they think they remember” it being set in high school???). It’s definitely a must miss. But, since we already had the dvd in last night, we decided to watch an episode (like our arms had to be twisted), and chose Snow White and the Seven Dorks. That’s right. SBTB rap style. Featuring boys wearing lip gloss, a whole lot of kissing, strange teacher-student dynamics (even stranger than normal), and farting.
