- Lark Voorhies was Mark-Paul Gosselaar's real-life girlfriend for three years

- According to executive producer Peter Engel, A.C. Slater was originally intended to be a John Travolta-type character. Mario Lopez was cast after casting directors couldn't find a satisfactory white actor

- The show is notorious for introducing characters who disappear. Jessie's new stepbrother, Eric Tramer, makes peace with the gang, agrees to live with Jessie permanently, and is never seen or spoken of again. Screech's girlfriend, Violet Bickerstaff, disappears mid-way through season 3. Laura, a homeless girl and Zack's love interest from Saved by the Bell: Home for Christmas: Part 1 & 2 (1991) goes to live with the Morris family until her father finds a job, and is never seen or spoken of again. Tori Scott transfers to Bayside at the beginning of season four, appears sporadically throughout the season, and disappears before the graduation episode.
