  1. I just have to say, I’m calling shenanigans on them bringing Aria Saved by the Bell. They’re supposed to be what, 18? The original was off the air before they were even born. No way they are in to that show enough to own the box set.

    Sorry, that’s been bothering me since I watched it.

    Also, Aria’s mirror shiv made me gain a whole new level of respect for her.

      • She was in Saved by the Bell: the New Class which was just not the same except a couple of crushworthy ladies including Sarah Lancaster aka Chuck’s sister(on Chuck) and another lady who went on to play an ex of Shawn on Boy Meet’s World in a memorable episode where he was handcuffed by three of his hot exes, including Alex Mack. Gosh the 90s were wonderful/confusing.

    • Saved By the Bell is HUGELY popular with kids right now. It is on in syndication and often plays before school. It isn’t weird, at all.

      • Huh, interesting. Good on them, it’s a quality show. I just hope no baby gays follow in my footsteps and try to be AC Slater, mullet and all.

    • yeah, as someone else said it was in syndication for a lot of years and that’s how I got into it when I was younger (I’m 18 now). Before ABC Family started with their own original shows it was strictly old episodes of Saved By The Bell, Full House, Family Matters and Step By Step so people my age would watch them when we were sick and what not…

  2. I have never swooned because of kale until now, but when Paige busted out that gay ass kale it was over. Mini picnic table for condiments? NOPE. It’s the kale that does it for me. Cut to Paige suddenly getting texted by every bro in school whose girlfriend just turned to them and said “Why don’t you treat me right like that?”

  3. NEXT TIME IT’S MY SOLO BITCH -A

    In which rAchel can’t handle it that Mr Schue gives the solo to Quinn FabrAy and this was the text Quinn got right before she got hit by that truck.

    I’m pretty sure I just watch the show for Paige’s face now, but Spencer’s face made my face cry.

  4. Remember when Spencer found the hole in Toby’s jeans and was like “You know I could fix this for you! I sewed my entire Mary Queen of Scots dress without a pattern because whatever I’m perfect, deal with it”? I think that was supposed to be the explanation for why the key was dropped after A attacked Hannah. Presumably that was TobAy shoving mannequins at her and the key slipped through the hole in his pocket on his way out.

    why do I know all of this whyyyy

    • You know they’ll all go to the same college and even with different majors they’ll end up in the same classes.

      I wish my high school life was more like there’s. I know there’s the whole almost constantly being axe murdered, but they get fantastic wardrobes out of it.

  5. Okay, what. Why the fuck wouldn’t Aria have used her computer and tweeted or messaged her friends to be like “I’m locked in my room, probably drugged by Meredith, call the police”. And ugh, Ella, way to be a doting parent by NOT checking in on your daughter and letting your ex-husband’s mistress do all the mother work. Seriously.

    OH. AND ALSO. SPENCER HOW DID YOU ACQUIRE A BOTTLE OF WINE FOR YOUR DATE. YOU’RE A FUCKING HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT. WHAT IS IT WITH AMERICAN TV SHOWS ALLOWING HIGH SCHOOL KIDS TO DRINK WINE IN A NON-HOUSE PARTY SETTING.

  6. I thought about spending some of my Sunday watching this ep. But I read this instead :) Thank you for writing about these stupid, stupid gals.
