I love Saved by the Bell as much as the next guy, assuming the next guy loves Saved by the Bell, but...yeah, a blind buy it's not. I'm a little over a quarter of the way through the set and am having a blast, but I grew up with the series... I couldn't imagine being 24 and trying to take it on its own for the first time.

Yeah, I don't know if I would recommend this as a blind buy either. I just did and watched the first few episodes and find it kinda...cheesy. I guess if you watched this as a kid, and enjoyed it, it's good for nostalgia value, but watching it for the first time did nothing for me. Oh well, I guess not all blind buys can be hits. I've been served very well with my 24, Buffy, Angel & King of The Hill blind buys, so I'm not complaining!

Like most kid shows from the 80's or any time really, if you didn't watch it back then or didn't catch it in syndication a couple years later, then you probably won't greet it with such open arms. The only reason I can sit through any of these is because I've seen all of them way too many times thanks to TBS and at one time, WGN. There are a couple lines that are actually funny (even to someone who's never seen them), but those usually come from Screech, Mr. Belding, or Mr. Dewey (anything that guy says is gold, I tell ya).

A BLIND BUY???? Oh man, are you sure? It's one of the worst TV series ever. Only kids who watched it when they were 7 or 8 could sit through even one entire episode.
Honw many seaons of SBTB were there anyway?

Here's another review of Saved By The Bell:

Yeah, I'm not sure if this one is the ideal blind buy. I'd suggest watching a few of these episodes on cable before buying it. It's really hit or miss.
