And so we come at last to Saved by the Bell’s final scripted content, the Wedding in Las Vegas TV movie, in which the Aluminum Six minus Jessie (who was busy chasing her dream of becoming a showgirl for most of the film) head to Vegas so Zack & Kelly can get married, over the objections of Zack’s dad and Kelly’s poverty. And it wouldn’t be a wedding without the traditional running from mobsters, a serial killer, male prostitution and Shirtless Desert Jesus!  So settle in for Zack’s moment of triumph and the final nail in the coffin of Kelly’s promising life by downloading & listening here, then rate & review us on iTunes or Stitcher, follow us on Twitter and like us on Facebook.

Continuing our epic, two-part look at the continued trainwreck of Dustin Diamond’s post-Saved by the Bell output, this week’s episode takes a deep dive into Behind the Bell, Diamond’s infamous tell-all book which purports to tell-it-like-it-was on the set on the show, but is really just an excuse for Diamond to rag on celebrities he doesn’t like (ie most of them) and crow about his many, varied sexual conquests (all of dubious veracity), all peppered liberally with spelling errors and typos.  So buy your tickets for the Magic Kingdom, then download & listen here, rate & review us on iTunes or Stitcher, follow us on Twitter and like us on Facebook.

Because you demanded it, the Aluminum Four take a look at the trainwreck that is Dustin Diamond’s post-Screech life, discussing everything from his reality show appearances (did you know they weren’t actually REAL?!?), to his sex tape (with much discussion of the so-called stunt dick) to his 2009 tell-all book Behind the Bell (which doesn’t really tell all, and what it does tell, is of dubious veracity).  And because we just can’t stop talking about Dustin Diamond, we’ve split this episode in two, ending this week after we finish up talking about the porno, leaving most of the book discussion for next week’s episode.  So draw yourself a bath and settle in for two full weeks of Dustin Diamond insanity!

Because it’s just so nuts we had to review it, this week the Aluminum Four discuss the so-called lost episode of Saved by the Bell, “Who Shrunk Saturday Morning?”, in which four of the Golden Six get shrunk (?) into TV Land and encounter a variety of NBC’s best and brightest (??) stars from 1989′s Saturday mornings, revealing in the process the secret origin of the entire series!. Amongst the things they encounter are a new set, Alf, Marsha Warfield (again!), John freaking Candy, and, possibly, a two-head, fire-breathing dog.  So imagine up a giant joystick, then download & listen here, rate & review us on iTunes or Stitcher, follow us on Twitter and like us on Facebook.

Because the portion of our audience which donated enough to IndieGoGo to push us over an arbitrary threshold demanded it, it’s time for the Aluminum Four to tackle one of the more infamous movies of the 90s, Showgirls. While four of her SbtB co-stars went off to The College Years, Elizabeth Berkley went on to bigger and better things - but ended up here, in a movie pitched at the level of her “I’m so excited/I’m so scared” freakout for two long, tonally-dissonant hours.  It’s a movie that tries to be a prestige drama and a thick slab of camp at the same time, before taking a disturbing & disquieting turn at the end. It’s got boobs and hamburgers and Kyle McLachlan’s butt and Gina Gershon snorting coke off her fingernail and floppy swimming pool sex and angry dancing. So much angry dancing.  So grab some ice and give us your best jazz hands, then download & listen here, rate & review us on iTunes or Stitcher, follow us on Twitter and like us on Facebook.
