Dennis “Mr. Belding” Haskins takes our Saved By The Bell quiz

[@mcshow8121]

He’s a phenomenal interview. Too many celebrities are too good to remember the details of their own freaking shows!! Much respect for Dennis. He schooled the interviewer which is always entertaining.

[@tomdelany7085]

Simply six minutes of joy. I'm glad he enjoys being a part of a show I still enjoy watching in my 30s. The Bell is a time capsule of Velveeta and dreams.

[@jonthomas8569]

Wow, he is an encyclopedia of Saved By The Bell facts. And he's so gracious in being willing to talk about the show in such detail. A lot of other actors would try to change the subject.

[@ia5662]

I freaking love Dennis Haskins, he's the principal we all deserved and wanted. Long before FaceTime, my friend on a college activities board had him come in as a guest speaker and she called me and got him on the phone. He was so cool, he was impressed I addressed him by his real name instead of Mr. Belding, but he was super appreciative and I think he knows he played a fun role in a lot of 90s kids' upbringings. Great guy!

[@saymynameice-zen-berg511]

I love how he runs with it and gives off a positive vibe. You can tell he's got fond memories, the character of principal Belding that he played wasn't really ever favourite of mine. But After seeing this interview I must admit I'm now a fan of Dennis Haskins.

[@junkytboy]

Wow, he remembers much more than I thought he would.

[@TheArsenalMan125]

i love it how he cares about it and acknowledges it where as the others dont and are like meh when you mention saved by the bell

[@LARRYLONGSTRETH]

He also wasn't 14 doing 300 episodes and going to school and through puberty.

[@mistercool3859]

He lost weight. He looks great! I loved the way he reprised the line, "Get out of my school, Rod." I also like how he doesn't run away from the show! Check him out on the sitcom "Malibu, CA" where he plays himself (or a version of himself) in an episode. Great nuanced acting while very different from his Belding character.

[@TheConorsmithusa]

The show ran away from him though as he's not in the reboot

[@randomperson2107]

Mr B gets an A he remembers so much more then a lot of the other cast does.. That's why he was the principle...😁

[@Moviefan2k4]

"Tori ran off with Kevin the robot." I loved that line.

[@StoriedArt]

I met him once and yes, he's a great guy. it was a brief meet for a marine corps charity event that had a few celebrities in attendance and only Dennis Haskins met with every marine, shook our hands, and was the nicest person ever. He will be, and is, missed from the reboot since I suppose he's retired...he needs to get back on the air though, at this time a Mr belding principal would such a hero to many

[@BenRollinsActor]

I had the pleasure of working with him on a couple of projects - a TV pilot, and a Christmas movie. He is a wonderful and generous man. An absolute pleasure to be around. Such a nice guy!

[@manuellong]

I met Dennis in person and he is just as friendly and funny. And infinitely cooler than this interviewer imo.

[@DjJokerr]

Never meet him but saw his years ago in Las Vegas on 4th of July weekend at a club hanging out at VIP area with Paris Hilton, her sister, the red hair kid/guy from Unhappily Ever After show and few other people. Paris Hilton got on a mic and introduced him, he waved and that was it.

[@jaym5118]

He has a great memory. Some actors can't even remember the theme songs to the show they starred in. I wish interviews like this was on the the DVD box sets. I always wish that with every TV series I buy on DVD.

[@dmace81]

The get out of my school rod part was hilarious. Love how he remembered that.

[@legasiguy551]

He lost weight! Looks more like old school Belding! Good job Mr. B!

[@igotgame1621]

What a great guy amazing interview

[@5020maine]

Man Mr. Belding was amazing I wish I could meet him

[@LoveableScarlet]

What a sweet man. I love his personality.

[@sirdaveysockrocker]

omg that classic mr belding laugh. so awesome.

[@VALENTINEproductions]

You can tell he watched and still watches the show.

[@johnwalker2810]

the interviewer never watched saved by the bell since he goofed on 2 question

[@B33FY2011]

@@johnwalker2810 Yeah, In season 2 lol. The episode he's talking about is Dancing to the Max and it aired on 08/20/89 as the first episode of the first season of Saved by the Bell.

[@johnwalker2810]

I remember Dancing to the Max season 1 where the max had the dance contest hosted by Casey Kasem where Lisa and Screech won by doing the sprain. not sire whey the ineterviewer said is was seasons 2 when it was in season 1 of Saved By The Bell

[@jennhoff03]

Dennis did really well handling this interviewer who took his quiz WAY too seriously!

[@xjcrossx]

Banging his cards on the table and kept cutting of Mr. Belding. Don't ever cut off Mr. Belding!

[@derp8575]

The interviewer was exposing him for taking part in propaganda. If you haven't realized it by now, Tell-A-Vision is propaganda.

[@zplapplap]

Dude is a great interview. It’s great to see how connected he is to his experience on the show(s).

[@modernvintagelifestyles]

Best principal ever!

[@amybella]

3:44 You can see that its his real laugh in his real show too its the same! The belding laugh.

[@markxxx21]

Wow this guy comes off as completely likeable and he has a great attitude about the show, unlike the kids do. He must've realized it was just a meal ticket. Good for him, I hope he gets some decent work in the future.

[@jorgesjose]

The show went to sindication and re runs still air now. I bet he still living out of the residuals

[@nsls8223]

@@jorgesjose nope. They don't get residuals only Peter engel. Their last paycheck was in 1992

[@UGotHookah]

@@jorgesjose nope. i wish he did when i met him he said he dosent get any money from it

[@chattjedi]

Dennis is a great guy.

[@joeyclemenza7339]

you've gotta love the fact that because dennis haskins came in as an older actor, he didn't really have to "grow up on tv." and with that, fully embraced his role as mr. belding. and TO THIS DAY, giggles and loves the fact that people still remember him as mr. belding. having said that, true story... i remember once running into haskins at a restaurant in LA. my girlfriend at the time and i were seated just a few feet from him and a few others at his table. i immediately knew who it was, though didn't want to be that asshole disturbing him as he was eating with a group of folks. well, it just happened that after diner and as we were leaving we see him again in the lobby of the restaurant talking up and chatting another couple. i figured, "he seems cool with it, why not." so i bumped into the middle of their conversation and just said, "just to let you know, i really wish mr. belding would've been my principle," at the same time extending my hand. he shook it and in turn also responded, "everyone tells me that!!!" it was just a really cool moment, but he was super nice!!!! this man was part of my childhood, and it makes me happy that he continues to embrace it.

[@derp8575]

He was a mouthpiece for corporations and government.

[@Beany695]

don't test the skills against Mr. Belding. You're gonna get schooled.

[@stacystoltz8722]

Sweet show Sat Morning NBC Live Philadelphia

[@c956rubber]

Wow he has a great memory.

[@a.b.sproductionsllc]

Adrian D. Vine It’s really good! Because a lot of celebrities tend to not remember or maybe want to forget. This is a real treat.

[@spaceghostp6672]

I’m rewatching the entire series on Peacock, so a lot of the stuff asked is fresh on my mind.. and he remembered stuff that I didn’t lol

[@sheikhyerboutial-nait]

He is one of the nicest people that I have ever met. A down-to-earth, and very real, guy.

[@jecka1982]

Beldings been binge watching saved by the bell! Hes smashing these answers! Amazing!

[@Sportshotrumorsdebates]

He seriously is a great dude and was so important to the show.

[@danielalford4835]

There was also Rhonda, who took Zack (“Zackey”) to the Ladies Choice dance. --The Zack Tapes

[@docd-monik3946]

He loves being America's favorite principal tho

[@LovesDavidCassidy]

Dennis Haskins made a cameo appearence on A Nickelodeon Show Called Victorious & it was april fools episode and I think Beck said Mr. Belding!

[@MURMENLIFE]

He not only knows the answer to the questions but more details about the program.

[@charlesoconnor6952]

Dude, I want Mr. Belding to say to me "My office, now!!". You were so lucky he said that to you man, high five!! lol

[@daleva187goligo]

I got one they missed, Needick, the wrestler who was bullying screech until slater saved him at the end and beat him in a wrestling match, great episode, and it helped that needick looked like the blonde kid from karate kid, and owen hart as well, two great heels

[@gordongiobanni7543]

The guy thought he woulda long forgotten. He remembers like an elephant

[@redmusichouse]

Just gotta love this guy

[@P1983sche]

I’d sit down and have a beer and talk to this guy about Saved By The Bell anytime. He genuinely seemed to enjoy his time on the show. Has he been integrated into the new show at all? I couldn’t make it past episode 1 unfortunately.

[@jecka1982]

Dennis Haskins was also in an episode of How I met your mother when Marshall was talking to the judges in order to be a judge himself.

[@wheelzwheela]

@@a1driver982 he was great to work with. Just before chemo he was planning on moving from FL to film more as he thought he had 5 months to live. I was with him when he passed.

[@a1driver982]

@@InsuranceKing It sucks that he's gone but its awesome that you had some really great times with him. I remember seeing him almost 20 years ago at a Yuk Yuks in Toronto. That was the only time and person I've ever seen do a stand up comedy. I had a great time.

[@InsuranceKing]

@@a1driver982 I took him on his last comedy tour. The material was mostly about his time in jail. I believe the show you saw he mentioned being the only child Star not to go to jail ironically.

You ask the actors who were 13 during the show what happened in each episode and they're like "Dude. I don't know. I was 13." You ask Belding and he's like "I was 40. Game on."

[@montecarlo4294]
