Dancing with the Saved by the Bell cast

So. I was spacing out in the direction of the TV a couple days ago, when a commercial actually made me snap out of my reverie and pay attention. It was for a new show called Step It Up and Dance, to be hosted by Elizabeth Berkley. I glared at the TV in horror. Aren't there enough dance competition shows out there already? And what the hell is up with Saved by the Bell alumni popping up as hosts? Mario Lopez - fine, I get it. He was named runner-up when he competed on Dancing With the Stars, so maybe it makes sense that he's now hosting America's Best Dance Crew. Kinda.

But Elizabeth Berkley? You can tell me till you're blue in the face that she trained in dance growing up, but I ask you: what the hell has she ever done professionally that would land her a hosting role on a dance show? I searched 'elizabeth berkley dancing' on Google images, and all I found were pictures of her and a pole from that blockbuster hit Showgirls. Maybe none of the dance show hosts have anything to do with dance, but I have to admit that I'm worried about the sudden resurgence of washed-up Saved by the Bell stars.

I can see it now: America's Best Headbangers, hosted by Mark-Paul Gosselaar; The Illest Step Kru in the Nation, hosted by Lark Voorhies; Cheerleaders Are, Like, Really Good Dancers Too, with Tiffani-Amber Thiessen; The Nation's Best Dancers With Two Left Feet, hosted by Dustin Diamond. Oh jebus, I think I need to take some ibuprofen immediately.
