‘Saved By the Bell’ Reboot Canceled at Peacock After 2 Seasons

Published: Thursday 5th May 2022 by Rashad

Not even a reunion of original cast members Mark Paul Gosselar, Elizabeth Berkley Mario Lopez, Tiffani Amber Thiessen, and Lark Voorhies could save the Peacock-housed reboot of ‘Saved by the Bell’ from getting the axe.

Less than two years after skating back onto screens following a nearly 30 year hiatus, the reimagined ‘Saved by the Bell’ has been dismissed.

Confirmed Wednesday (May 4) by NBCUniversal, the new iteraiton of the show – which tackled topics of sexuality, class, race, inclusion, and more – ran for 2 seasons on the Peacock streaming platform.

“We are so proud to have been the home of the next iteration of Saved by the Bell for both new and OG fans,” Peacock said in a statement. “Saved by the Bell has been a cultural mainstay for more than 30 years and the new series, led by Tracey Wigfield’s superfan enthusiasm and signature witty humor, seamlessly continued the show’s legacy, all while allowing more audiences to feel seen.  We’re grateful to Tracey, Franco Bario, our partners at UTV, the beloved cast, and the fans who have continued to champion one of the most iconic shows of all time.”  

In addition to the original cast reprising their roles, the Peacock edition of ‘Bell’ brought actors Belmont Cameli, Dexter Darden, Mitchell Hoog, Alycia Pascual-Peña, and more to the new class.

Although no new episodes will be in production, the revamped series’ two seasons will continue to be available for streaming.
