Lifetime is going back to the colorful 1990s with a TV movie about the Saturday morning show “Saved By the Bell.”

The network explained on Thursday that it’s film, “The Unauthorized Saved By the Bell Story,” is currently in the making in Vancouver. It is set to premiere on Labor Day.

It will follow the life of young unknown actors in Hollywood trying to maintain the clean image of their characters while growing up surrounded by the temptations of show business.

Saved by the Bell is an American television sitcom that aired on NBC from 1989 to 1993. The show was a reconstruction of the Disney Channel series Good Morning, Miss Bliss.

It follows a group of friends and their principal, and although the series primarily showcases relaxed comedic situations, it also touches on serious social issues, such as drug use, driving under the influence, homelessness, divorce, death, and environmental issues.
