Salvado por la Campana

I don't think the pilot for the show was good. The only reason I watched past the first episode was because I was bored and didn't have anything else to watch, but I'm glad I did. Not only was the second episode stronger but I found myself laughing as each episode went on. It took a minute to find it's groove, but I find it enjoyable. While very different from the original, this show still manages to show it's heart as time goes on. I think if this show was made earlier it would've fit well on alongside shows like Awkward and Faking It. It's not without it's flaws but I wouldn't mind seeing more of it.

This show is bad, the acting, most of the characters, the storylines, the humor, the attempt to tactile political issues. All terrible! But strangely enough, it's enjoyable and I can't wait for season 2. It does have a different feel than the original but seeing the original characters integrated with the new generation is awesome! Love AC Slater and I'm glad he is a main cast member and not a reoccurring character. His original dance off scene was awkward and a great nod to all of us 80s- 90s kids obsessed with SBTB. AC still looks great 30 years later...

So I'm a huge fan of the original show. However I knew this wouldn't be the original. If you can't get passed that, don't just give 1 star reviews because it's not that. In its own its a decent enough show. The show uses a lot of sarcasm, and I'm a fan of that.

It's got layers, and actually is really smart. Totally aware of itself, and almost cynical at times. Love it. Haters just don't get it.

Look guys, the original premise of this series was over the top cheesiness and that worked in the early 90's. It won't work today so I love the tongue in cheek way that this reboot pokes fun at itself and the original series whilst still being enjoyable. I liked the original as a kid and I don't mind this as an adult. It's not groundbreaking or amazing but it's different and watchable and I was able to easily watch the first series with a fair amount of enjoyment. Can't ask much more in a netflix based world
