25th anniversary of Jessie Spano’s caffeine pill meltdown!
Quote:
It is time to be so excited and not hide it — it has been 25 years since viewers first witnessed Jessie Spano’s infamous caffeine pill meltdown on a classic episode from 1990s sitcom “Saved by the Bell.”
“Jessie’s Song” aired on Nov. 3, 1990 and a particular scene from the episode has become one of the most memorable of the series.
“I’m so excited! I’m so excited! I’m so scared!” a tormented Spano wails into confidant Zack Morris’ arms after he stops her from taking another risky dose of caffeine pills.
The crying fit stands as one of the show’s most legendary — likely due to the melodrama that seems to liken caffeine pills to harder and more serious drugs.
