Was just wondering if any of you were as disappointed as I was regarding the direction of Screech over the years of SBTB and TCY?
It seems to me that as the seasons wore on Screech got dumber and dumber. When the show first started Screech gave as good as he got from Zach. I always liked that. Yeah, Screech was the nerd, but he was also Zach's best friend, and best friends tell you when you do something that's really stupid. Besides, they had someone to constantly give Screech a hard time - Lisa.
One of the things that I loved about Tif is that she seemed to think the same way I did about Screech. It was as if she felt sorry for him. Rarely does she ever put Screech down. And if you watch her closely, when the action isn't involving her, often times you see her smile, or make a face that says she cares for him.
A perfect example of that was the last episode at the Malibu Sands Beach Resort ("The Last Weekend"), the last scene. As the gang walks off down the beach together Kelly puts her arm around Screech. It was little things like that which went on - and there were more than you think - that makes me think Tif felt for Dustin and the way his character evolved, or de-evolved on the show.
Does anyone else agree with me? And did anyone else notice how Tif reacted?

I agree with you somewhat. Screech did kinda get dumber over the years, but it seemed like he also got a lot more caring. I do totally agree with you about tif, she always seemed to feel bad for him and take his side in arguments, and she was always smiling at him.

Yeah, I agree. I mean, Kelly was a sweet character, but I always thought that was part of Tif coming through that character...or perhaps it was just great acting...who knows. But I'm going to stick with it being Tif shining through.

i used to dread screech's appearance in any episode, he haunted my life for years, I think that he is one of the worst characters in television history. sorry for being so angry.

I want so bad to love screech but he really is quite irritating. I think that he was much more lovable and even cooler in the earlier years, but maybe that's cuz they were all immature and goofy. I do feel bad for Screech though, especially when Slater attacks him at the rave just for stopping the record. Stupid jock!!! You're not a jock, you're a joke!

What if for the men of Cal U calendar the girls snuck into the wrestler's changing rooms and secretly took their pictures and sneakily put them in a calendar they didn't know about until the calendars were being sold.
I wonder if screech ever tried to gain weight, when we see him on his bicycle ready to pose for the calendar he's looking pretty boney.

Screech was always the odd man out and i do believe deep down inside Tif truely did care for him. If u have watched the hollywood story dustin explains how he really didn't hang out with the rest of the cast too much, because he was younger then all of them. I think still tell this day Dustin struggles to fit in with the rest of the world.

Yeah, and I always liked that you could tell that Dustin didn't take himself so seriously. I mean really it takes guts to act like that on something everyone sees.
