What is it about Saved By the Bell? The acting is terrible, the dialog juvenile, the plots predictable, and the sets, costumes, and theme are hideous. Yet for some strange reason, every time I flip to it, I absolutely have to watch it, even if I've seen the episode 5 times before. It must be some sort of mind control device or something a la Manchurian Candidate. Come to think of it, I think I did blank out for while after I watched an episode a few days ago. Either I went out and killed someone during the lapse or my mind was so un-stimulated by the programming that it actually went to sleep.
