My money is on the latter given that the rest of the team includes otherwise healthy picks like R Kelly, Johnny Depp and Shia LaBeouf. You say that, but just wait till they win the DDP... 10 minutes ago, Toast said: No idea who he is. He was the comic relief on a kids TV sitcom popular in the 90s but like many child actors struggled with the whole adulthood thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaptainChorizo 1,990 Posted February 1, 2021 19 minutes ago, Toast said: No idea who he is. He appeared on the popular youth oriented sitcom Saved By The Bell in the late 80s/early 90's where he portrayed the charecter Samuel "Screech" Powers. He then appeared on the spinoff series Saved By The Bell:The College Years which was cancelled after 1 season in 1994.. After The College Years cancellation he returned to the other Saved By The Bell spinoff "Saved By The Bell:The New Class" where he again reprised his role as Samuel "Screech" Powers playing the assistant to Principal Rod Belding until the shows cancellation in the year 2000.

Just this last week I decided that a snowball fight with the kids from the house opposite was eminently more satisfying than dealing with being transferred to the execrable Scottish Power because my lot, Yorkshire Power (A money saving expert recommendation), went bust.. And no, I don't live in either Yorkshire or Scotland. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
