Screech Snitches on Saved By the Bell Cast

Posted Thursday September 24, 2009 6:17 PM GMT

Offering an inside account, Dustin Diamond is telling all about Saved By The Bell, where he claims drugs were used and sex was common on the set of the old NBC morning show.

"I could smell a certain 'smoke,' wafting from from the crack" underneath his castmates' dressing rooms, says Diamond, 32, who played the dork, Screech.

Diamond also accused costar Mark Paul Gosselaar, who played Zack Morris, of using steroids right before shooting the 1994’s Saved by the Bell: The College Years.

"He suddenly exploded with manliness, loading 25 pounds of muscle on his once-scrawny frame in, oh, about a month," says Diamond, who is not in touch with any of his costars. (Gosselaar, 35, has dismissed his costar's so-called revelations to Us: "We weren't in rehab and Mr. Belding wasn't my crack dealer.” His rep had no comment.)

All has not been easy for Diamond after the show, who filed for bankruptcy in 2001 and had his own sex tape released in 2006.

Adding on about relationships on the show, he says, "If Kelly [ Tiffani Thiessen] was interested in Slater [ Mario Lopez] one week, then backstage there was a lot going between them in Mario [Lopez]'s room," he tells the new Us Weekly. "Then, if Jessie [Elizabeth Berkley] kisses Zack, then you know Elizabeth Berkley is going in Mark-Paul's room."
