Mark-Paul Gosselaar possibly open to bringing that jerk Zack Morris back
Mark-Paul Gosselaar has starred in a number of TV series, like NYPD Blue, Franklin & Bash, Pitch, and the recently cancelled vampire thriller The Passage. But, to a significant number of Gen-Xers, he will always be remembered as smart aleck Zack Morris, the lead on NBC Saturday morning kids’ series Saved By The Bell. In a recent conversation with The Hollywood Reporter for its Awards Chatter podcast, Gosselaar discussed his most famous role, explaining that “Zack Morris was a character that I created from seeing the really cool kids in my school… I was not one of those kids.” Hard to believe, since he played one so well across several seasons and followup projects like Saved By The Bell: The College Years and Saved By The Bell: Wedding In Las Vegas.
