One prime-time season on NBC's Tuesday night lineup was deadly poison for the "Saved by the Bell" series sequel. The prime characters from the precursor (Mark Paul Gosselaar, Mario Lopez, Dustin Diamond and Tiffani-Amber Thiessen) do indeed go to college but have not really grown up or matured much. They still do their tiring routines in a different location and with different supporting cast members. The substance here just does not translate into night-time network viewing. The lack of depth or complexity to the characters and situations is much more apparent as the core performers have finally out-grown their childish roles. The once cute routines border on being down-right annoying and totally unwanted. Mercifully died after 23 episodes. 2 stars out of 5.
