Did you know that "Saved by the Bell," the popular '90s television show, has a 2020 reboot? Did you also know that this reboot was greenlit for a second season back in January of this year?
You probably did, if you're reading this article. Read on to learn everything we know about season 2 of "Saved by the Bell," including when you can watch it.
Saved by the Bell Season 2 Release Date and Where You Can Watch It
Season 2 of the "Saved by the Bell" reboot will premiere on Peacock on November 24, 2021. The season will consist of 10 30-minute episodes. Season 1 of the reboot is also currently available on Peacock for your viewing enjoyment.
What is Saved by the Bell?
Peacock's "Saved by the Bell" takes place in the same world as the original "Saved by the Bell." The original high school kids are all grown up, but they are still involved in the reboot, some more than others.
In the new series, Zack Morris (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) is now the governor of California. The first season saw him "get into hot water" for closing too many underfunded high schools, so he decides to send the affected students to the wealthiest schools in the state, which includes his alma mater, Bayside High. The show revolves around the new kids giving Bayside's rich students a healthy dose of reality. Laughs ensue.
Season 2 will have the high school kids competing in the Southern California School Spirit Competition, which I'm sure will be a spirited affair (I'm sorry).
Saved by the Bell Showrunner, Producers, and More
