Round 1 Match 42
 |  |  |
Screech: Apart from his keen fashion sense and scene-stealing dialogue, Screech is cool for being the court jester in a show dominated by a marketed "cool" based on beauty and trends. That's a little on the ironi-cool side, but still cool.
ET: This little guy was THE cool icon for a whole summer and beyond. Think about it, he was so cool, people bought into putting that ugly thing on their t-shirts, sleeping bags, key chains, etc. Just because he made us cry. Old Yeller never got that much swag money, and he actually died.

INTERESTING TRIVIA: On the same day the gigantic blockbuster ET was released ANOTHER version of meeting an alien was also released...and it was "The Thing" (one of the few John Carpenter movies that should have been a blockbuster). Interesting because they both offered COMPLETELY different takes on what that meeting might be. Needless to say ET kicked The Thing's ass at the box office.
The Thing fans can be so outraged at this affront to their cult-fav freak-me-out movie (not since I watched 'Alien' behind my fingers --twice-- had I been so moved in a theatre) that they even go so far as to rub out the little bugger. Don't believe me?
In terms of the pecking order then it is:
• The Thing
• ET
• Humans, then
• Screech

it's really and truly uncanny how mcuh this one should be in the seperated at birth catalogue. my vote would have to be for dustin diamond cuz at least HE'S trying to make a come back
E.T. sold out with it's 20th anniversary re-release that included editing the guns out (or so I heard). It was a huge cash grab.
Now Screech and the crew from Saved by the Bell knew from the get go that they were a teenage garbage show - and they stuck with it.
You can argue that The New Saved by the Bell was their sellout cash grab. However, they were producing new episodes and I doubt if they ever made any money to begin with...

My vote's for ET. Not because I like ET, but because I hate Dustin. He really is a screw up. Wah...my parents spent my child star money...wah...I'm losing my house...wah...I'm not funny...wah...it's not easy living with a monster cock. Seriously...dude is hung...check out his porno.
Oh Saved By The Bell... you tricked me into thinking high school was about cute guys fighting over girls, becoming friends with your principle, hanging out at a cool diner, and, most importantly, never attending classes. Despite my love for all things Zach Morris, his best friend annoyed the crap out of me.
However, the ugly alien's only claim to fame (in my mind at least) was putting Drew Barrymore on the map...
ET phone home... and stay there. I vote for Screech.

Well, here are we are back again at the Big Brother household.
After reading jon a's argument I think that Screech might do better than expected. But that would only be if he could convince a woman to sucumb to is woooing.
Not likely!!!!
In which case he is just an annoying sidekick.
Therefor, by process of elimination, ET takes the win.

And the final episode of Big Brother...
Who would win a sexy blonde with a dipsy laugh or an overweight farmer with an endless supply of burgers and fries.
On the real series, I think that the blonde might win, but I am voting for the farmer...

Screech does porno? That's surreal. It would be funny if he threw in lots of saved by the bell references in his performances - like making reference to Mr. Belding and all.
PS I'm afraid to click through the link. There's not enough liquid paper to get those mental images out of my brain...
A vote for ET. He taught me to rebel against the man.
