Elizabeth Berkley Lauren & Val jive on "Dancing with the Stars."
If you ever watched "Saved by
the Bell" on NBC in the early '90s, chances are you remember the famous
scene where
Elizabeth Berkley's character Jessie Spano totally freaks out on caffeine pills.
It may have traumatized
you as a teen, but if you happen across a rerun of the overly dramatic,
soap-tastic moment these days, it will likely make you laugh. Which is
exactly why Berkley's re-enactment of the famed scene on "Dancing With
the Stars" on Monday night had viewers howling with joy."I need them. I need them, Zack, I have to sing!" is what a frizzy-haired Spano shouts at Zack (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) on "Saved by the Bell" before launching into a frantic a cappella version of "I'm So Excited," and collapsing into his arms in tears.
As a bonus, her former "Saved by the Bell" costar Mario Lopez (who played A.C. Slater on the show) was in the audience cheering her on.
"God, I love you so much for doing that!" effused judge Carrie Ann Inaba.
