7. Saved by the Bell — “Isn’t It Romantic?”

This show isn’t on television anymore, but will always be a classic sitcom to revert back to for some old school entertainment. Saved by the Bell was at one point the highest rated show on Saturday mornings, and the season four Valentine’s day episode “Isn’t It Romantic?” takes viewers on a far walk down memory lane. The gang is about to graduate from high school and move on into the real world, so they all begin reminiscing about past relationships with one another. It’s a cute reminder of all the silly and romantic moments that occurred in the halls of Bayside High and a great tribute to the cast members before the series came to an end.
