Have you ever wondered what the stars of your childhood favorite TV shows are doing now?
One of my personal favorites was Saved by the Bell, which was on the air from 1989-1993. The show followed six students and their principal at Bayside High School, and the friendships, life changes and social issues that go along with the teenage years.
Check out what the seven main stars have been doing since the end of Saved by the Bell:
