At last. The show that turned my life around is available on disc. I have once again been saved by the bell.

Surely it can't only be me that remembers this show for what it really was. An education into the education system. If I hadn't seen this show how would I know that to be like screetch would get you laughs but not the girl. To get the girl you got to act like Josh. A 26 year old trying to get with school children. Now that is a man to believe in.

Rewatching this I pondered on the meaning of it all. I wondered what the bell symbolized and what it was saving us from. Was it maybe saving us from our own impending age? At least this show will always be immortal and maybe - just maybe - that will be enough.

About the reviewer: scrabslad

Films - the window to the world. Well not my world but the world of those that live. I watch. As do you I assume. Emotional ties don't lie in a silver disc. So you can't really love film. A filtered fiction. Contradiction. Ten thousand films but still no wisdom.. Experience is essential and often not as sentimental.
