Oh, that's amazing.

Oh, there's tons, more than you think.

Rewatching it last night, I was like, God, they're doing another dance number?

And yet it just ended up being absolutely huge.

And poor Elizabeth probably thought this is my Sharon Stone moment.

Saved by the Bell was a ridiculous sitcom set in a high school.

It actually started as a Hayley Mills thing.

Hayley Mills, the original Freaky Friday girl for our generation.

It was called Good Morning Miss Bliss.

And then they realized that she was less popular than the kids.

So they turned it from being about her into being about just the kids.

And then it was called Saved by the Bell.

And it was Zach Morris, who was the hot, cool, sort of Ferris Bueller type of a school.
