Top 5 Most Outrageous Saved by the Bell Episodes

by Angela on 5:26 pm in Humor, Movies & TV

Let’s be real…ALL Saved by the Bell episodes are, in their own right, outrageous. But despite its plot holes and irrationality, I could not love this show more. I’ve been watching it since the 90′s when it showed up on TBS in syndication and I find it fascinating that at 7am now, in 2010, you [...]

Bachelorette and bachelor parties in general make me roll my eyes. In recent years, they’ve gotten so stereotyped and out-of-control elaborate that they can often take away from the actual wedding itself – in my opinion, events such as weekend-long trips to Vegas involving strippers and booze (and penis-shaped paraphernalia for girls) just don’t seem necessary to celebrate the upcoming happiest day in two people’s lives.

When the original idea of going to Awesome 80′s Prom for my best friend’s bachelorette party was suggested, I am the first to admit that I was not 100% on board with it. Billed as an off-Broadway show, I did some research on their website and quickly learned it was not your typical “theater” production by any means – this was more of an interactive production where members of a fictional high school (characters such as the class nerd, the head cheerleader, and the “bad boy”) roamed around a club that was set-up like a high school prom, campaigning for student votes for prom king and queen. Not being a big fan of clubs/bars in general, and not totally sure exactly how an interactive club would work, I wasn’t too sure how the night would pan out.
