Ever wondered about the origins of one of television's most beloved teen comedies? "Good Morning, Miss Bliss" isn't just a feel-good show from the late 80s; it's the surprising genesis of the iconic "Saved by the Bell." This connection has intrigued fans for years, making it a fascinating piece of television history.

Before Zack Morris and his Bayside High crew charmed audiences, there was Miss Carrie Bliss, a dedicated teacher navigating the trials and tribulations of junior high. "Good Morning, Miss Bliss" aired on the Disney Channel from 1988 to 1989, starring Hayley Mills as the eponymous teacher at John F. Kennedy Junior High School in Indianapolis, Indiana. The show, while short-lived, served as the foundation for what would become a cultural phenomenon. Originally conceived as a pilot for NBC, inspired by NBC president Brandon Tartikoff's vision of an inspiring teacher, the show found its home on Disney after NBC passed on it.
