We all know the answer to that crush question tbh. It was Lark but he doesn't want to open up the can of worms or cause any media hype.Their chemistry translated the most on screen romantically throughout the whole run of SBTB.
You can see this guy has been dealing with the media for a long time because that answer over who he had the biggest crush on was expertly answered. No feelings hurt guaranteed
I was about to throw hands if he said he didn't love lark 😅🤣 cause the amount of eye flirting on the show and the years they dated I knew that would be a bloody lie
I think he didn't speak on his three year relationship with Lark because he knows she's dealing with mental health issues. Lark is mentally stuck as Lisa Turtle. Watch her Dr.Oz episode, She still refers to herself as Lisa. Something tells me she was happiest on that show dating Mark. Slowly she's moved away from the spotlight. I will always support Ms Voorhies
I myself also deal mental health issues and all lark has to do is take her medication. She identified herself as her characters name ok I saw mark paul do the same thing on one of those late night talk shows where he refers to himself as zack Morris. All of the actors will forever be linked to their characters, and Latk is no different because she suffers from mental health issues.
As much as I missed the 80's and 90's it sucks that child actors and even child musical artists back then got screwed over either by their agents because their parents didn't know any better or by their parents themselves for being too greedy.
@Clickety Clack Yep, he mentioned previously that he dated Lark the longest and they seemed pretty tight when you look back at scenes they filmed together on SBTB, lots of unscripted, unwritten moments which were obvious to an attentive eye.
@Clickety Clack Yeah they all looked amazing but could really see the chemistry between Zack and Lisa (Mark and Lark). I thought I was overanalysing it at the time but turns out the chemistry was for real. I didn't see the same kind of chemistry between Zack and Kelly even though that was the key relationship of SBTB.
I remember we were over at 20th Century Fox Studios shooting "NYPD Blue" and everyone kept tripping over a storm grate on the New York exterior sets. I said something to the second A.D., but no one put up safety cones; and then the unthinkable happened. Mark tripped and scrapped his knee. It was awful and totally preventable. But he shook it off and kept working, after a brief visit with the set medic. Always the professional.
The writers are way more important.Look at any show that was considered good and got bad like that 70s show.Fez/Fes was way funnier in the beginning of the show and he was way less funny at the end and it had nothing to do with Wilmer Valderramas acting ability.
$5K x 30 episodes = $150,000 in 1990 ($330,000 today). Not big money in current dollars, but considering an average LA County home at the time was $212,000, that gives you an idea of the Purchasing Power the dollar had (today's dollar only buys .41 of what it bought back then). Even if his Net Take was 30% of gross, that $4k per month income (at the time) went plenty far while building a career. Not meant to sound like it was easy, but even low hollywood money at the time allowed you to avoid living on the streets.
Yep I was making the math too … he got paid really good money and if he got paid like he said 0.13 per rerun that still ran strong for a long time he probably got a couple hundred thousand from that too
I do wonder if there were a huge squabble involving Mark and suddenly the tension were broken with either a doorbell, phone or some sort of ringing, whether Mark would be like *_"DON'T..._* _Don't you dare even think about f**kin' say it...!"_
@@soggyfroggy9318 Well they're both married now, so they're not gonna go around publicly discussing their past relationships. Keep in mind these actors have real life spouses who might not be cool or comfortable with that.
Ok so there's 3 that he dated...eliminated Tiffanie, so whos the other 2 between Jesse, Lisa and Tori (unlikely) and which one did he love the most since he avoided the question lol
@@volleyballbabe1114 The quality of his mic was that of a laptop or wireless headset. If that mic was being used correctly it would of sounded 10x better in comparison.
The point wasn't that it isn't a decent amount of money, but that given the revenue they generate, that is pretty low. As Harry Shearer noted, they both get overpaid and get screwed.
I couldn't believe he took part in the reboot that was a complete disgrace. As a SBTB fanatic it really felt like him spitting in my face by even appearing in it.
5k and episode, not 5k a week. Saved by the Bell (the OG series) has only 86 episodes. That’s slightly over 400 k for the ENTIRE series. And again that doesn’t include money taken out by agents and other fees. Compare that to most of your other popular shows where actors were getting close to or over 1 million per season. It’s a pretty big difference
Considering that it was 5K before taxes, agents fee, etc...and the he couldn't handle his money and also that sitcoms at the time were making hundreds of millions of dollars, no, 5K an episode was nothing.
You guys re also forgetting .. $430,000 (5,000x86) would be equal to a million in todays standard … plus the college years and the movie .. I’m sure they re-negotiations … through out
I'm not mad that he's not friends with the cast. But it's annoying that he always lies about so wish people would stop asking. It so obvious they all agreed to the reboot for the money and that's fine but they were coworkers that didn't like each other and honesty if he was dating all the lead actress I can see why none of them wanted to stay in touch
So you’re personal friends with MPG so everything you said is fact? Dude just said they’re all friends/friendly and that he hangs with Tiffani and her family a lot. Do you not consider that friends?
$5,000 back in those days is like $11,000 now .. if it ran for 86 episodes just on original sbtb he made close to half a million … plus the movie and the college years … I’m sure they re-negotiated a couple of times and got more by then en with the success
He's worked in Hollywood for 30 years. It adds up. Honestly with how big Saved By The Bell is he should be worth far more money. I remember being in middle school in like 04 and that show would re-run when I was getting ready for school and right before I went to bed. He got screwed out of millions of dollars.
Passed away of cancer. Diagnosed and a month later he went from the earth. Really sad that he never got closure with all cast members. Elizabeth Berkeley really held a grudge. Hence he wasn't asked to do the reboot. People were pissed because let's face it screech made the show such a hit. After he died they added a tribute scene in season 2. Horribly done tbh
He says ONLY $5,000 a week .. $11,000 in todays value… just make the math he was they had 86 episodes on just saved not counting the college years and the movie … so yeah he got paid like close to if not over a million just on those original 4 seasons You didn’t get “screwed”
Mark refused to take a phone call from Dustin diamond while Dustin was on his death bed. Mark was a big shot, thought screech was uncool. We'll forgetting old friends is never cool MPG! That baseball show sucked! You abandoned screech
We all know the answer to that crush question tbh. It was Lark but he doesn't want to open up the can of worms or cause any media hype.Their chemistry translated the most on screen romantically throughout the whole run of SBTB.
Lisa Turtle was the first black girl I crushed on I think I was like 5 or 6
Man mark don’t age! He looks great!
Out all the kisses he had on Saved By The Bell you could tell he enjoyed Lisas the most
It was obvious ❤
People put so much emphasis on romantic love & it's nice to see someone who sees the value in friendly love.
You can see this guy has been dealing with the media for a long time because that answer over who he had the biggest crush on was expertly answered. No feelings hurt guaranteed
Feelings hurt it was 30 years ago bet they couldn't care less now
He had the most chemistry with Elizabeth Berkeley so I’m gonna think that’s who he crushed on hard.
It’s not that deep 😂😂
@@daviddamato9434 but he dated lark for years
Everyone knows it was Lark
I was about to throw hands if he said he didn't love lark 😅🤣 cause the amount of eye flirting on the show and the years they dated I knew that would be a bloody lie
I'd be SO disappointed if he denied that tbh because their chemistry did look special albeit they were young.
Mark paul probably didn't mention lark because he would've been talking about lark for hours.
It might be because he still have feelings for her
I think he didn't speak on his three year relationship with Lark because he knows she's dealing with mental health issues. Lark is mentally stuck as Lisa Turtle. Watch her Dr.Oz episode, She still refers to herself as Lisa. Something tells me she was happiest on that show dating Mark. Slowly she's moved away from the spotlight.

Happy to hear that Mark-Paul & Tiffani are still friends & see each other
As much as I missed the 80's and 90's it sucks that child actors and even child musical artists back then got screwed over either by their agents because their parents didn't know any better or by their parents themselves for being too greedy.
It still happens today.
its the cornerstone of Disney's business model...
Watching this makes me ❤ Mark Paul Gosselar even more ❤
❤❤ we appreciate your efforts
He beat around the bush when the question was who did you really love😭 He know he wanted to say Lark😭
Facts
@Death Adder they dated for 3 years the longest of all his relationships. Its been said everywhere
@Clickety Clack Yep, he mentioned previously that he dated Lark the longest and they seemed pretty tight when you look back at scenes they filmed together on SBTB, lots of unscripted, unwritten moments which were obvious to an attentive eye.
@Clickety Clack Yeah they all looked amazing but could really see the chemistry between Zack and Lisa (Mark and Lark). I thought I was overanalysing it at the time but turns out the chemistry was for real. I didn't see the same kind of chemistry between Zack and Kelly even though that was the key relationship of SBTB.
@Clickety Clack Everything is not about looks. Although Lisa was gorgeous in her own right.

I don’t think that’s the story about overcoming adversity that you think it is.
@@MrElephantBeach Matt never did have the makings of a varsity inspirational coming of age self sacrificing hero storyteller.
Oh no he scrapped his knee … what a hero
It's not like people scrap their knee and go on with their jobs like no big deal.
Man, it sucks that kids get screwed so bad. It is 90% the actors who make a show a success. Of course, it takes good writers, etc.
Writers are most important. Actors of their level are a dime a dozen.
The writers are way more important.Look at any show that was considered good and got bad like that 70s show.Fez/Fes was way funnier in the beginning of the show and he was way less funny at the end and it had nothing to do with Wilmer Valderramas acting ability.
I used to have the biggest crush on Zack!
The girls did an most not all had a crush on tiffany who aged beautifully she still looks the same

dustin said they all dated each other and they call him a lie, so yea he was telling the truth.
But he also called lark sloppy thirds, which wasn't true because Mark dated her the longest out of all of them. 3 years to be exact.
Dustin admitted most of that book was bullshit he was forced to write because he owed so much money in taxes.
This guys slayed more *kittens* than Conan himself.
Still shocked that Jeff Probst is the stepdad to his children and that they coparent together.
LOL - the best thing is "4 MPG" probably comes across way different today than it did back then.
Why no more Zack to the Future podcast since last year?
I saw something about losing sponsors.
Didn’t he date Lark for like 3 years?
Allegedly they did!!! But to be honest, it really doesn't seem like he even remembers it much😭
He dated Tiffani, Lark, and Elizabeth during the run. He and Lark were together the longest at about 3 years.
@@Fueunachimba He does remember but he now plays it down because Lark plays it down which was probably quite hurtful.
@@soggyfroggy9318 Lark also was became disturbed by hollyweird so that could play a part too
@@soggyfroggy9318 Well they're both married now, so they're not gonna go around publicly discussing their past relationships. Keep in mind these actors have real life spouses who might not be cool or comfortable with that.
Zack was that guy back in the day! Simple as that!
He and Lark dated for 3 years then again during the Hawaii movie so I think we can answer that ourselves lool
Ok so there's 3 that he dated...eliminated Tiffanie, so whos the other 2 between Jesse, Lisa and Tori (unlikely) and which one did he love the most since he avoided the question lol
Jesse and Lisa obviously
He dated Lark, the Lisa actress, for like, three or four years. I think the one with Elizabeth/Jessie was fairly short-lived.
well tori was played by triplets so he coulda knocked out all three with just her
@@briangriffith4574there was only one of the Creel triplets playing Tori. Her name is Leanna her two twins had nothing to do with saved by the bell.
Hopefully the new saved by the bell gets another season
It is :)
Yesss. Please.
Season 2 was Cancelled Thank Goodness!
Oh wow Lex Luthor interviewing Zach Morris!
Did anyone else think the car only got 4 miles to the gallon?
that's not that much money but not surprising either
2k a week is alot of money as kid
How about for Belding? Can't imagine him making very little at his age back then.
How can anyone view Kelly as a sibling?
No more podcasts?
For context of how much money was made the key grip definitely made more money every week every year than the cast.
Not just wage but equipment rentals is where this money is being made.
They got screwed out of so much money…
Agents and whatnot be damned…walking out with 2 g’s a week is SIGNIFICANT
Was no one going to tell Mark that the mic he was speaking into wasn't live? That's embarrassing Inside Of You.
he’s in his own home with his own set up. how do you know it’s not live?
@@volleyballbabe1114 The quality of his mic was that of a laptop or wireless headset. If that mic was being used correctly it would of sounded 10x better in comparison.
Often mics like that are just for backup recording. Sounds like the FaceTime feed Audio was used instead.
@@DBravo29er Couldn't agree more. It's just a shame.
@@TheOurVids Agreed; bad audio is so difficult for me to enjoy. Even when the subject is fascinating.
2k per week is still a great living….
Especially in the early 90s
@@slipknotron1626 exactly lol. I’d love to make that right now.

fantastic acting in Barry ! hahahaha
I dont understand why Mark keeps knocking Saved By the Bell. Like YOU dont know why people keep it watching it but true fans do.
I couldn't believe he took part in the reboot that was a complete disgrace. As a SBTB fanatic it really felt like him spitting in my face by even appearing in it.
Guess he's not getting anything for the new Saved by the Bell/Zack Hallmark Ornament out this year.
5k an episode not alot you kidding in 80s & early 90s when bell was made that was a hell of alot of money to be earning.
True, as long as it was handled correctly

You guys re also forgetting .. $430,000 (5,000x86) would be equal to a million in todays standard … plus the college years and the movie .. I’m sure they re-negotiations … through out
Damn and all this time I thought they were friends 😔
Only $5000 a week…they ripped them off….
They have agents that need a percent of their earnings
$2000 a week is still good
I'm not mad that he's not friends with the cast. But it's annoying that he always lies about so wish people would stop asking. It so obvious they all agreed to the reboot for the money and that's fine but they were coworkers that didn't like each other and honesty if he was dating all the lead actress I can see why none of them wanted to stay in touch

net worth apparently 8 mil . how then?. Dont say that show he was on cos no
He also had a staring role on NYPD Blue
