This week we reluctantly dive into another installment of the ever-expanding TV rewatch podcast universe, and find ourselves face-to-face with: “Zack to the Future” which, in case it wasn’t clear, is a Saved by the Bell rewatch podcast. What has it got to do with Back to the Future, you ask? Nothing at all. Amidst the sea of nostalgic callbacks and flashbacks, we can’t help but marvel at the sheer absurdity of it all. Here we are, two guys hiding out in a bunker, critiquing a podcast about a show we barely remember watching. And yet, as we navigate through the saccharine-sweet halls of Bayside High, we find ourselves grappling with existential questions about the nature of nostalgia and the relentless march of time.
So grab your oversized cell phones, dust off your acid-washed jeans, dig out your neon scrunchies, raid your parent’s attic for that old Zack Morris poster, snag a slice of pizza from The Max, brush up on your Slater-style dance moves, find your VHS collection of “Saved by the Bell” reruns, stock up on caffeine pills (just kidding, don’t do that), hunt down your Lisa Turtle-inspired fashion accessories, borrow your little sister’s slap bracelets, locate your Zach Attack cassette tape, and prepare for one hell of a ride because where we’re going we won’t need… roads.
Zack to the Future
Mark-Paul Gosselaar (aka Zack Morris) has not watched an episode of Saved by the Bell since he walked off the set over 25 years ago. Partnered with Dashiell Driscoll – who is currently writing for the series reboot and who wrote the Funny or Die series “Zack Morris is Trash” – the duo revisits the show and recaps the most epic moments for the audience to relive the incredible series. So grab a burger and shake from The Max, get so excited for some special guests and don’t let the dog eat your homework, because Zack Morris is back.
