Saved by the Bell follows the misadventures of a group of friends in high school consisting of Zach, Screech, Slater, Lisa, Kelly, and Jessie as they go about they're days in high school getting into various shenanigans and dilemmas that quickly get out of hand due to their default tactics of trying to do quick fixes instead of avoiding the problems in the first place.
Saved by the Bell is essentially fluff, but it's entertaining and well made fluff(for the most part). Saved by the Bell works not because it's challenging or thought provoking, but because it's escapist fantasy with likable enough characters and reasonably relatable dilemmas(even if they're taken to ridiculous extremes). At its core Saved by the Bell is essentially an update on the formula established by Archie Andrews and his gang's adventures in the eponymous comic series. Zach Morris even has similar foils to Archie's friends Jughead and Reggie with Screech filling Jughead's(goofy sidekick) role and Slater Reggie's(Nemesis/frenemy).
Saved by the Bell knows what it is and has no pretense beyond that, if you've an affinity for cheesy and inoffensive jokes and shenanigans that can be enjoyed by most then look no further.
