Good Morning, Miss Bliss

I always thought that this, "Good Morning, Miss Bliss" was just the original "Saved by the Bell" because everything was the same, high school layout, writing, classrooms, etc. etc. etc...I could go on. You had your first AC Slater; that forgien kid with the jerry curl hair. The yuppie, friend of Zacks with the same big hair as Jessie. The only thing missing was the hot chick; Kelly. But take Hayley Mills thirty years before and she could be a Kelly. (Damn, Hayley Mills was cute back in the day.) Anyways, to me this will always be the original Saved By the Bell. Either way, they are both good shows to fall asleep to take you back to your high school days.

I love Good Morning, Miss Bliss! I don't understand why some people don't like it... it's got a great plot and amazing characters! Miss Bliss is such an inspiring teacher, with great personality. Zack, Lisa, Mikey, Nikki, Screech, etc all represented the diversity of junior high. The show is really funny and you will love each character! GMMB represented my childhood... each episode was unique and interesting. I watch it now regularly because it's truly a great show. The themes in each episode are relevant and are greatly enhanced by Miss Bliss, Miss Paladrino, Mylo and Mr. Belding as well as all of the students mentioned above. I highly recommend watching this show... it is AMAZING!! It may be old and it may be 80's, but the plot and characters are things that will always stay with you and the laughs you get will be irreplaceable. This is a great pre-show to Saved by the Bell.

Okay, so this show wasn't that great, but I hope everyone realizes that this was the show responsible for the launch of Saved By The Bell, one of the most awesome Saturday morning shows that I must say I and everyone I know watched religiously as we were growing up. :D

I just wish I could see more episodes of it. I only get to see it occasionaly when they venture into the earliest episodes of the show which older Zach usually narrates the beginning of (renamed Saved By the Bell and played now in syndication as if they had been normal episodes of the SbtB series).

Oh, and Saved by the Bell: The New Class was terrible!!!

Long live Zach, Kelly, Lisa, Screech, AC, Jessie, and Mr. Belding! hehe

I loved Hayley Mills in the original series as Miss Bliss. But the rest of the series just displayed many stereotypes that we would be better off without. A brainless jock, a Barbie doll ditz, a spoiled rich kid, a young womanizer and a geek just for starters. Selfish, self indulgent teens with no real substance. With the exception of perhaps one or two characters, their first instinct was always to dupe someone or get something they were told they couldn't have. It was always at the expense of someone else. The only time they showed any morals or regret was when they were caught and told how they should act. And while they made fun of geeks at every opportunity, how is it that Scheech (a self admitted geek) was one of their circle of friends? Of course he was the fall guy for many a prank. Pityful. I would not let my children watch this show....ever.

My opinion of this original version of "Saved By The Bell" has remained virtually unchanged since it premiered over a decade ago. Basically, it's rarely funny, sometimes quite slow-moving, and yet, I still occasionally watch the reruns because it is a pain-free way to kill some time. That's hardly an endorsement, but it is quite the compliment considering how weak this show really is. I can't explain why I watched it when it first aired, and I can't explain why I sometimes watch it now...perhaps these days it's a nostalgic thing, but I don't really know. One thing's for sure: unless you grew up watching this and "Saved By The Bell", you shouldn't bother giving this show a chance.
