Zack Attack and The Roots?!
Tuesday, June 9th, 2009 | fliX, musiX
I was a huge fan of Zack Attack in high school. The way Zack Morris, Kelly Kapowski and Lisa Turtle’s harmonies blended together gave me chills. When they broke up, so did a part of my left ventricle.
I was more than excited when Morris appeared on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon the other night. He talked about the old days, his new career in acting, his divorce from Kapowski. Morris even timed Fallon out (which I enjoyed quite a bit) and capped the appearance with a performance of Zack Attack’s hit “Friends Forever” with The Roots.
Fallon is working on a class reunion of sorts for our old pals from Bayside High—the only two holdouts are Kapowski and Screech. Who would have thought Screech would be the most successful one of the group, with his work as a stand-up comedian, film actor (Saved By the Smell is a must-see) and as a musician? Might be tough to nab him.

Don’t forget Screech’s turn as a celebrity boxer.
That’s right! I saw that … he pummeled Horseshack from “Welcome Back Kotter.”
That was great. Screech really illuminated the craft of acting when he appeared on the Actor’s Studio.

Didn’t he tinker in porn, too?
That was “Saved By the SMELL”! Involved a Dirty Sanchez from what I hear.
