In the early ‘90s, Saved by the Bell was the sitcom anyone who was in high school watched. It followed the story of a group of high schoolers, each fitting a different stereotype, their principal Mr. Belding, and their time in school, at home, and at the local fast food joint The Max.
While some of the series’ stars went on to bigger and better projects, many of them struggled to shed their wholesome images. Nonetheless, most of them are still doing pretty well for themselves.
