- Find Saved by the Bell news at: 1980s.me/f/319-... This video is one-off show previewing the year's upcoming series through the cast of Saved by the Bell. Aired September 9, 1989.
this was the last season of the smurfs after 9 years and the end of a golden era of nbc saturday mornings
But it also was a beginning for "Saved by the Bell."
Im a big save by the bell fan and I totally never seen this..I cried life was so much simpler then..
I have been looking for what seems forever for this. So many people I know said this never existed. I couldn't remember the name, but knew what it was about bc I remember having this recorded once on vhs tape.
Searching what I knew about this show over past 2 years finally was solved tonight at 9:30pm CST when I found a Google search that led me to Imdb and gave me a show name ("Who Shrunk Saturday Morning?") that did not sound familiar to me, but the synopsis on imdb was spot on to what I remembered about the show I have been looking for.
I then, in a whim, decided to search RUclips for the title Imdb gave me..pretty sure nothing would show up..and I was thankfully proving wrong when your video showed up.
It was exactly the show I have been looking for. Now I can prove to my friends that it truly does exist and I wasn'tt crazy when I talked about this show.
I know this video is missing the very beginning intro up to when Zack & Screech first get zapped into the "sitcon tv realm" (would love to see that part if it can be found), but this is enough to prove that it truly existed.
It was so much fun to watch and my childhood memories came back to me as I watched it. If I remember right it came mid week at around 7pm during primetime so the whole family could watch it and see the new show cunning out that season.
I always considered this first true episode of "Saved By The Bell" (after the show's producers dropped the name "Good Morning Miss Bliss", replaced some cast members, and moved the show from Disney to NBC).
Thanks so much for posting this. You don't know how much this means to me. You have made me very happy. Keep up the great work and keep the memories coming back.
Thanks for the response! If you check the description, I have a link to an article I wrote about it. I do have a more complete version, but need to edit and upload it since the quality is worse in some aspects than this version. Subscribe and stay tuned.
This upload is priceless! Your story sounds very similar to mine. I remember watching this the night it aired because I never missed these Saturday morning fall preview specials. I always got so excited over the new cartoon series! My mom always made sure we watched them every fall. "Thank you, Lord Jesus, for my childhood."
It's nice that you were able to track down this video, but it's not nice to make up stories about having friends. 👿 DD
@@80sTV was that lady supposed to be the 'Mr.Belding'? Thank god they went with Dennis
Yep. This is why I LOVE RUclips. All of our childhood memories are here if you do enough digging!!
Greatest episode of saved by the bell ever! I’m the only one I’ve ever met that’s seen this before youtube
I’m so into the 80s my mom showed me movies shows and cartoons and I loved them makes me wish I was born there I bet I would have fun
Oh it was truly amazing! but thanks to youtube you can see the majority of what we lived through!
Anyone else catch Zach and Lisa holding hands @7:34? So cute!
First time I saw this episode was back in 2017 or 2018. I loved it so much. I’m rewatching it now because I’m bored
I found this two years ago and am in LOVE with it:) I always knew Zack was Marty with Screech as Doc!
I remember watching this when I was a kid. Thus began my love for "Saved By the Bell" and Saturday morning cartoons!
I remember watching this. Every year I was always pumped for the Saturday morning preview show! Thanks for uploading this
This is great because there is still 1989 commercials too. I never knew there was a Karate Kid cartoon?
I remember watching this as a kid hyped for save by the bell on Saturday mornings
Watched every episode as a kid… I’ve never seen this before
I've been watching all of the original Saved by the Bell episodes lately, and I was surprised to learn that nobody ever actually says that they've been "saved by the bell" in any of the episodes, but I had a specific memory from childhood of it being said in one of the episodes. I'm glad I found this video to prove that I did not have a false memory, for I believe that Slater saying it in this episode is the only time it's ever said, though this apparently doesn't count as an official episode of Saved by the Bell.
Slater says "we're saved by the bell" in Screeches spaghetti sauce episode
It actually aired on September 8, 1989.
C.J. O'Dell no in houston it aired that morning on the ninth
so it aired on the same day as the third episode- 'the gift'
Imagine how interesting SBTB would’ve been if Marsha Warfields character was in it
The outfit's missing the hat though.
i watched this as a 13yr old when it aired...i pulled the mattress from my bedroom the previous night and put it in front of the tv set in the living room so i didnt have to get up to start watching saturday morning cartoons. i havent seen this since that day!! holy sh^t! thanks for posting it, i remember them walking on the huge nes advantage and thinking how cool that was.
RIP John Candy, Sherman Headley & Dustin Diamond
Great time period to be a kid! Also I just noticed that's Christine Taylor in the Kodak commercial.
I had a huge crush on her in 1989!
I remember trying to see what was coming on Saturday mornings when they showed them like this on a Friday night! That way, I could plan what I was going to watch or tape if I wasn't at home for whatever reason.
I did that every year until they took away those programs and replaced them with those E/I programs.
The ironic thing about those older programs and the E/I programs of today is that Saved By the Bell is now considered to be one of those E/I programs!🤔🙂
Smh back when Bill Cosby endorsed everything. How the mighty have fallen
Thank you for uploading this, 80s tv!
Cosby hiding those pictures, what does he have there???
Lmao he needs to burn the evidence
You...don't want to know.
If you make it to the end, you'll find an important fact that changes the meaning of the entire show! I don't want to spoil it.
ya mean a certain explanation if you will???
Someone explain
Friends Forever?
Thank you for those good memories.
Everything about this makes me want to be in front of the console woodgrain TV on a Saturday morning with a bowl of Fruity Pebbles.
Screech: You know Zack, your old buddy Screech has really done it now. Zack, every now and then, a fellow comes down the street with lollipop road all over his face. Well, the old bass master came in and it was hook, line and sinker. Check it out! All I had to give the guy Zack was a mint Ford Pinto and a set of Phillip screwdrivers and, uh, well some other stuff I never heard of.
The music is great too
Marsha Warfield should have made more appearances on Saved by the Bell. Her whole crux could have been trying to sabotage Zach, AC, Lisa and the rest of the Bayside Gang.
Best shows when I was a kid growing up!
TGIF on ABC
Saturday Morning Cartoons on Fox (also Cartoons/game shows every week day after school from 2pm to 5pm)
NBC Saturday Morning Land
Classic Cartoons on CBS
Nostalgia!!!
You can tell why this episode never aired . It's weird.. large up bill Cosby glory years
John Candy and Zack Morris in the same scene?
👍
Pure nostalgia fix
This is awesome! Does anyone know of any more adult themed montages like this?
Anybody
Man that Bill Cosby commercial lol
I blame Bill Clinton for shrinking Saturday morning.
The 1996 FCC Mandate, which strengthened the 1992 Children's Television Act, effectively killed the market for animated productions on network television. In walked "educational" live shows and imported cartoons peddling playing cards, and next thing you know the Today show has a Saturday morning version. And you thought the Internet did it ...
and now that that the Act does its job, you might well repeal it. Cause the news people would love to have more time.
Cartoon Network also helped. Waiting for Saturday Mornings to watch cartoons stopped feeling as special when you had a channel you could watch cartoons on 24/7.
Don't forget Disney Channel; and Nick. But had it not been for the CTA and alll the make all children's TV educational advocates it would have died a slower death.
Bill Clinton did not shrinking Saturday morning, but he did ended Saturday Morning Show though.
Bill Clinton didn’t make the CTA, that was something passed in the republican controlled house and senate. Bill just signed the bill into law. What the Republicans did on top of that was get rid of some laws that gave birth to Fox News. There used to be a law against the news promoting people giving false or misleading information without telling the viewer that the person telling lies does not represent the news program or its station (it’s way more complex in what rules and laws were repealed). Basically after that you could lie on the news and not be held accountable for it, and that’s how FOX NEWS was born!
During the final three years of NBC's orignal Saturday morning block, all of its programming outside of Saved by the Bell suffered constant Executive Meddling. First, NBC canceled The Smurfs, at one time considered NBC's staple animated program, and gave it the rerun treatment for a year while struggling to headline newer shows, like Captain N: The Game Master and the Animated Adaptation of The Karate Kid, the latter of which was promptly axed due to low ratings. Both shows had to rely on word-of-mouth as NBC chose to spend their resources headlining Saved by the Bell. Then, a year later, Kissyfur was axed and its time slot replaced by NBA Inside Stuff, a recap program of NBA basketball games. At the same time, NBC exhausted more advertising revenue toward Saved by the Bell, causing drastic budget cuts for cartoons airing on the block. Potential viewers would either move to other blocks, such as newcomer Fox Kids, or watch Nickelodeon instead. Then, in the block's final year, Captain N was shortened from an hour to a half-hour, and both Alvin and the Chipmunks and the obscure Gravedale High were canceled in favor of new shows like ProStars and Yo Yogi!, the latter of which was critically panned and proved to be the final straw. As a result of the persistent ratings failures and continued pressure within the children's television market, NBC ordered all Saturday morning programs canceled, save for only Saved by the Bell since it was the most successful show of the block. They continued airing reruns of the shows until August 1st, 1992, when a teen-oriented live-action block named TNBC and a Saturday morning edition of Today took its place. Saved by the Bell and NBA Inside Stuff were the only programs to survive the transition. NBC's decision to drop their Saturday Morning Cartoon block is widely viewed as the beginning of the end for the format.
For anyone who needs encouragement:
Romans 8:18 “The pain you’ve been feeling can’t compare to the joy that is coming!” John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” Whatever is going on right now, have faith, your situation will get better. :) Jesus bless anyone reading this and have an amazing day!!🥰✨💖
Thank you Savannah, I did need that.
According to TV Tango, this special originally aired Friday night, Sept. 8, 1989, followed by an original SBtB episode ("The Gift"). I taped this special then awhile back transferred the tape to DVD.

I remember watching this when it originally aired, I also remember the SBTB episode that aired after it. It's what got me to watch SBTB regularly on Saturday mornings.
Good times back then
@@dmjac77It sure was then
I wonder what Cosby was taking pictures of
For the Smurfs scene it was from Season 9
Saved By The Bell casts meets "Disney's Adventures of Gummi Bears" on NBC?
That first commercial break...Mind you, I'm still a fan of Cosby's works, just not happy with his past.
I’ll be shocked if they manage to reference this in the reboot.
Why is there no laugh track? 🤔
NBC frowned upon Zack and Lisa holding handing hands because of the backlash of a interracial couple even being teens.
Even in 1989, that was a serious problem?.
Where did you hear this from? If it's true, then that's weird, since a main part of show was Screech always trying to get with Lisa.
What is this?!?? I've never saw this!
18:26 they can what?!
It’s real!
Thought I seen every High School episode and clearly wrong and love the first season the best at Bayside!
Not a fan of Hawaii & Malibu Beach Sands episodes, college years, mall & rock band episodes; or others 100% away from Bayside High School.
I hate when they take something SIMPLE and try to expand its reach.
The demise of Saturday mornings on the Peacock 🦚 (NBC) network could be considered a perfect storm of:
1) NBC relying too long on five cartoons (The Smurfs, The Snorks, Alvin and the Chipmunks 🐿 , ALF and until it moved to ABC on September 9, 1989; Adventures of the Gummi Bears) *as their heavy hitters.*
2) *The replacement newcomers being extremely weak* (The Karate 🥋 Kid, Gravedale High, Kid & Play, Yo! Yogi and ProStars, especially).
3) *NBC News wanting to expand the Today show to Saturdays* (the one day they did not air on; Today had only expanded to Sundays about 1987).
4) Lastly, the success of Saved By the Bell leading to NBC executives doing what most network execs do when a show is a huge hit: *order as many clones as possible.* Leading to the birth of Teen NBC (TNBC) on September 12, 1992.
