Star Maker: Saved by the Bell - Pt. 1

Every Tuesday and Thursday morning, I watch "Saved by the Bell" while I'm getting ready for work. I love this damn show. It's cheese but the best kind - the kind that is browned and sits on top of homemade macaroni and cheese, the kind that comes off the piece of pizza NEXT to the piece that you pick up and is STUCK, therefore it's yours. I love cheese....

Anyway, after having watched "Saved by the Bell" more often in recent years, I noticed that there are TONS of people who are now stars who seem to have gotten their starts on SBTB. Who could that be, you might ask? Well, here are just a few of the actors whose breakthrough roles on SBTB led to fame and, in some cases, total obscurity or worse, the lesser known half of a famous couple.


Years before discovering bangs and playing Doug's sharp-tongued hottie wife on "King of Queens", Leah Remini played beach club owner's daughter Stacey Carosi in a story arc called "Malibu Sands" that involved the gang working at the Malibu Sands Beach Club over summer break. Stacey and Zach fell in love, but as we all know, Zach and Kelly eventually tied the knot in the Made-for-TV movie "Saved by the Bell: Wedding in Las Vegas." Do we all know that?






COMING SOON: Long before she was losing the big "V" to David Silver on 90210, Tori Spelling was humping Screech, playing his nerdy girlfriend, Violet Bickerstaff.
