Hayley Mills opens up about Walt Disney, her date with George Harrison and staying “Forever Young”

She must really want to be on season 3 of the Saved By The Bell reboot.

Miss Bliss was much better than creepy Belding.

She's selling a book. This is what celebrities do.

Belding was on Miss Bliss.

They hooked up on the show?

I had a weird crush on her as a kid from the Parent Trap and later Saved By the Bell. I swear she was in an episode of Law and Order Sexy Times.

I worked doing assistant props on the first sequel to Parent Trap filmed in Tampa Florida. Mills was absolutely charming and down to earth. Wicked sense of humor.

R7 how old are you?

Younger than Springtime and twice as exciting!

I really hope she makes a comeback and does a show in New York!

Agreed. I've worked with her too. Totally charming and very kind.

Just bought it on Amazon for $18.50 including tax. There’s a $4.50 coupon right now.

She must have that skin pulled tight and big lashes and more sequins and a bouffant and screaming red nails!!

Must be fun to have a mom who when you don't have a date says "I'll call George Harrison".

I think it's kinda dirty they built a show around her just for them to ditch her and reboot around Mark Paul Gosselaar. They both carried the show equally. Lark Voorhees and Dustin Diamond stood out too and it made sense they kept those two. They switched the setting from the Midwest and shifted the focus from a competent and exasperated school staff and misbehaving but well meaning students to a cheesy teen sitcom about spoiled materialistic California brats and bumbling idiot teachers and predicable plots.

Why didn't just keep Hayley and have her at least be the supporting on Saved by the Bell? Maybe she thought the writing was too awful and offended they changed it from a wholesome down-to-earth show to a cheese fest of stereotypes?

R15 Miss Bliss flopped. Kids didn’t wanna watch a show about a teacher.

When it was revamped and aired on NBC it took off, and gained a teen audience too.

R16 True. It's odd how Saved by the Bell is syndicated and includes the Miss Bliss episodes dubbed as "The Middle School Years". They were two completely different shows and even Zack's character was more sympathetic in Miss Bliss.

She looks good for her age, unlike the usual dyed and stretched and tucked brigade.

Who was the Beth Howland look a like from Good morning miss bliss?

Does she talk about her neonazi son Crispian?

Do kids still watch Pollyanna? That was such an odd film, but I loved the house in it and the little cabin with all the light-reflecting crystals.

Zack Morris was also in Middle School. SBTB takes place in HS.

The real question is how they went from Indiana to California.

[quote]Lark Voorhees and Dustin Diamond stood out too and it made sense they kept those two.

I remember catching one of the older episodes, and was surprised to see how much more normal Screech was and he was even a little endearing. It is too bad they did not let the character age a little more naturally, instead of making him weirder and making him talk in a fake high-pitched voice once his voice changed. He could have still be a dork, but one that came across a little more real.
