Peacock's Saved By The Bell reboot is high on nostalgia (and caffeine pills) in its latest teaser
Peacock introduced the world to its Saved By The Bell reboot with a clip of Mario Lopez’s adult Slater bragging about banging students’ moms. Today, the nascent streamer has shared a new teaser that dials down the horniness and plays up the fluorescent tinge of nostalgia that colors its legacy. “Remember all the dances we had in this gym?” Elizabeth Berkley’s Jessie Spano asks Slater. “Do you ever wish you could go back?”
Boy, does he. It’s cool, though, as the school’s gym teacher apparently parties with students while wearing neon tank tops, just like he did in the old days. It appears the reboot will trade timely jokes—well, if you consider Kardashian jokes timely—with meta references to the original series. Jessie, as you’ll see, is “so excited” to share the dangers of caffeine pills with Mitchell Hoog’s Mac Morris.
