Were you ever on Saved by the Bell?

Odd’s are, you were. Fellow blogger, Abby Covert just pointed me in the direction of Wikipedia’s HUGE list of minor characters on Saved by the Bell.

It’s not just a list. Wikipedia also provides you with a brief description of each over-stereotyped character, how they were introduced, and how they met their demise. The latter is, more often than not, due to Zack’s lack of interest in said minor character, and re-interest in Kelly Kapowski.

Here are a couple gems:

“Becky the Duck – named after Mr. Belding’s wife. Having bonded with her over the weekend, Zack returned her to her natural habitat in the pond, only to have her die as a result of an oil geyser just a short time later.”

I forgot about all the serious issues this show tackled. Not just oil spills, they also had a show about homelessness.

Frank and Laura Benton – a homeless father and daughter, who caught the eye of Zack around Christmas time. Laura seemed to be a tentative love interest for Zack. Eventually the Morris family took the Bentons in until they could “get back on their feet”. The Bentons disappeared the very next episode and were never mentioned again.”

I can only guess that Frank got a job and nice condo someplace and the two of them are living happily ever after. As for the rest of the gang, Nyssa Bulkes of the Northern Star has her opinion of what they are up to these days.
