Today's SBTBT is an extra-special episode, kids. Because today our dear Mark Paul Gosselaar aka Zack Morris aka Preppy aka Running Zack (if you remember the Native American episode) is 38.
Obviously we know Zack very well, but who doesn't like a little uninteresting trivia to spice up an otherwise-average day? You're welcome!

Now THAT is a career. But "Running Zack" was one of the worst episodes ever. It was during that weird time when it looks like they filmed the shows differently, and randomly one of the girls wouldn't be on for no reason, and I hate that episode. Like, you're SBTB. Go to the Max, and leave the political stuff to Jessie, and make it only about the environment or women's rights, so she can chain herself to items, okay? Okay.
Totally agree that Running Zack was a horrible episode! Didn't he cry in that episode? Like, badly?!
ReplyDeleteI think he did. He was the worst crier. Remember when Kelly dumped him at the dance for dreamy Jeff? He cried then, too, and it was so ridiculous.
