Saved By The Bell is the latest '90s series to come back to the small screen and its return will feature some familiar famous. The first teaser for the upcoming reboot was released this week and gives an update on two of Bayside High’s most famous graduates. Jessie Spano and AC Slater really stayed friends forever.Mario Lopez and Elizabeth Berkley have reprised their roles as AC Slater and Jessie Spano, with both actors appearing in the first look at the new show. We’re so excited! In the trailer, viewers learn that Lopez’s AC Slater is now the gym teacher at Bayside High. Yeah, that checks out. Slater appears throughout the trailer, rocking his trademark tank top and revealing that life may not be as great as his dimples imply. Eating soup in a car is a bit sad. Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Tiffani Theisen are both confirmed to be returning to the show as Zack Morris and Kelly Kapowski, although neither appear in the teaser.

Well done, Preppy. Morris’ teenage son Mac Morris, played by Mitchell Hoog, dominates the first look at the reboot. In an excellent casting move (he really does look just like Mark-Paul Gosselaar), Hoog’s Mac has all the confidence of the older Morris and appears to rule the school like his father, at least until the new influx of students arrive and deliver a reality check to the privileged teen. The younger Morris is already rubbing new students the wrong way, including Haskiri Velazquez’s Daisy, who is quick to call out the ‘blonde fool.’The trailer ends with Slater disciplining Mac for getting into a fight with fellow student Jamie Spano (Belmont Cameli), as in Jessie Spano’s son. According to Slater, Mac’s mother is Kelly, which means that Zack and Kelly made their relationship last past high school and college. It looks like they did have a chance.The new trailer also features John Michael Higgins, who takes over from Dennis Haskins in the role of principal. Champions star Josie Totah also appears in the trailer as Lexi, delivering a Bieber burn on Cameli’s Jamie while dining on fries at The Max. Although he doesn’t appear in the trailer, Gosselaar gave fans a sneak peek at his return in March. The blonde is back.
