Peacock's Saved By The Bell reboot gets a premiere date

Much like the first day of classes in the real world, it seemed like Peacock’s Saved By The Bell reboot had become a moving target. When the first teaser trailer released in April, we assumed the high-profile series was going to be part of Peacock’s initial fleet of programming when the streaming service launched in July. But July came and went with no Mario Lopez or Elizabeth Berkley. Then, in August, we got a second teaser, still no date. But today, dear reader, we can inform you that Wednesday, November 25, is the day.

Just in time for Thanksgiving, Saved By The Bell will hit Peacock, with Lopez and Berkley reprising their roles as A.C. Slater and Jessie Spano. Rounding out the cast is John Michael Higgins as Principal Toddman and students played by Belmont Cameli, Dexter Darden, Mitchell Hoog, Alycia Pascual-Peña, Josie Totah and Haskiri Velazquez. Other Bell alums Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Tiffani Thiessen will pop in as Zac and Kelly Morris—as will Ed Alonzo, who played the owner of The Max on the original NBC series.
