NBC's Saturday lineup is anchored by Saved by the Bell: The New Class (11-11:30 a.m.), a sequel to the Bell that has moved to prime time. New Class is followed by a boarding-school variation on Bell, Running the Halls (11:30 a.m.-noon).

The innocuous fun is predictable, but the show, created by Steve Slavkin, does depart from similar programs with a certain buoyancy in execution and an absence of sexual leers and gratuitous flesh shots.
