Saved by the Bell fans will be sorry to hear – the show has now been canceled.
Deadlinereports that the comedy reboot has been axed by streamer Peacock after just two seasons.
According to the site, the cast and crew of the show were informed of the news on Tuesday (May 3).
Saved by the Bell picked up years after the original series, when California governor Zack Morris gets into hot water for closing too many underfunded high schools, he proposes they send the affected students to the most well-funded schools in the state – including Bayside High. The influx of new students gives the privileged Bayside kids (who never have a problem that can’t be solved in twenty-two minutes) a much-needed dose of reality.
Besties JoJo Siwa and Jenna Johnson met up on the red carpet while stepping out for the 2022 GLAAD Media Awards held at The Beverly Hilton on Saturday (April 2) in Beverly Hills, Calif.
The former DWTS partners were among many celebs who stepped out for the annual event, which recognizes and honors different parts of the media for their outstanding representations of the LGBTQ+ community.
JoJo and Jenna were of course the first same sex couple to compete on Dancing With The Stars on the show’s latest season.
Also in attendance was Jenna‘s husband Val Chmerkovskiy and so many other stars, including the cast of Saved By The Bell, which won the award for Outstanding Comedy Series.

Here’s a synopsis: When California governor Zack Morris gets into hot water for closing too many low-income high schools, he proposes they send the affected students to the highest performing schools in the state – including Bayside High.

Saved By The Bell will premiere on Wednesday, November 25th on the Peacock streaming service. Watch the trailer here!
