It wouldn't be Saved by the Bell [1] without a few members of the original group, right? Even the show's spinoff Saved by the Bell: The New Class [2] featured Screech in a main role [3], so we're thrilled that not only are Jessie, Slater, Zack, and Kelly back [4], their actors were able to give the new generation a few tips and tricks. Ahead of the reboot's premiere on Peacock Nov. 25, the new cast told E! all about how the original Saved by the Bell [5] actors made them feel like part of the Bayside family [6]. "It was supercool meeting the original cast," said Belmont Cameli [7], who play's Jessie's son Jamie. "[Elizabeth] been so fantastic. Mario just the same. They did a phenomenal job with helping us get acquainted with Bayside."

Haskiri Velazquez [8], who plays Daisy and shares the time-stopping "power" Zack had in the original series, was grateful for the advice they offered. "They created a space where they allowed us to ask questions," she told the outlet. "It was like we were always a part of the show in a sense. They were very helpful, especially in table reads." While the idea of joining an already beloved fandom may have been daunting for Mitchell Hoog [9], who plays Zack's son Mac, the original cast made the new group feel welcome. "Off the bat, when we first met, we went and had a conversation for five or six hours," he said. "We went into depth on multiple topics. It's a great crew, and I would call ourselves a family."
