Saved By the Bell originated as a Disney Channel series titled Good Morning, Miss Bliss. This show about a teacher, Miss. Bliss and her students in an Indiana Junior High School was very short-lived.

The people at NBC noticed that the show had potential and picked it up after changing a few things. They decided to keep the characters of Mr. Belding, Zack Morris, Lisa Turtle and Screech Powers, while adding new members such as Kelly Kapowski, Jessie Spano and AC Slater. The focus of the series shifted gears as it began to focus on high school students, rather than a middle school teacher and her class.

This series about the adventures of 6 students at Bayside High School became one the 90's biggest hits. The series lasted for 5 seasons until the gang graduated High School.
Some of the spin-off's for the series included Saved By the Bell: The College Years which followed the gang in college. This series didn't share the same success as the original and was canceled after one season.
There was also Saved By the Bell: The New Class, which again took place back at the high school but this time with new students. It lasted 7 seasons, but it was missing something and was never as popular as the original.

Opening Theme

When I wake up in the morning
And the alarm gives out a warning
I don't think I'll ever make it on time
By the time I grab my books
And I give myself a look
I'm at the corner just in time to see the bus fly by
It's all right 'cause I'm saved by the bell

If the teacher pops a test
I know I'm in a mess
And my dog ate all my homework last night
Riding low in my chair
She won't know that I'm there
If I can hand it in tomorrow, it'll be all right
It's all right 'cause I'm saved by the bell


It's all right 'cause I'm saved by the
It's all right 'cause I'm saved by the
It's all right 'cause I'm saved by the bell
