“From when I first pitched the show, it was always on my mind,” Tracey shared with the outlet, while thinking about the next season and beyond. “I think we’ve done a good job of, when we have OG cast or guest stars from the original, using them in a meaningful way and not just having them come back and say a line.”
As for Leah‘s return as Stacey Carosi, Tracey says that it “would be a dream of mine. So I would love to have her… do an arc where, obviously, she owns Malibu Sands now, she took it over as Mr. Carosi’s daughter.”
Over the summer, Leah opened up about her time on the show for a six episode arc, where she got involved with Mark-Paul Gosselaar‘s Zack Morris.
“For a very long time in my career … people would say, ‘I loved you on Saved by the Bell.’ They still do,” she said on her podcast. “I did 207 episodes of King of Queens and people say, ‘Yeah, yeah, yeah, King of Queens, but Saved by the Bell.’…It’s amazing. And I’m so glad that I did it.”
