Diamond had spoken to TMZ last year about the Saved By The Bell Reboot and wanted to make it clear that he would love to be involved in some capacity.

“See I was one of the people in every episode. I was literally in every episode. Out of all of the cast members, I was in the most. And that’s not the case anymore. I’m not in the new one. And how do you have ‘Saved By The Bell’ without Screech? Right? It seems like there a missed opportunity,” he began. “It’s kind of — what’s the old saying about cutting off the finger to spite the hand? Or cutting off the nose to spite the face? Something like that. Ten years in high school, I should know this [laughs] I should have studied it thoroughly.”

Diamond added, “For all the cast members to say… I think everyone should all be thinking the same thing (as far as I’m concerned), everyone should be thinking: ‘We should all be a part of this. You can’t have ‘Saved By The Bell’ without Zack; You can’t have ‘Saved By The Bell’ without Screech; You can’t have ‘Saved By The Bell’ without Kelly; You can’t have ‘Saved By The Bell’ without Slater; You have to have all the cast members, you know?… If it’s a reboot, bring back all the original staples.”
