No one comes between Zack and Kelly!

I totally agree with the premise of this hard-hitting article: Professor Lasky was a big jerk. How dare he stand between Zack and Kelly?

It does amuse me that 13 years after playing Professor Lasky, Patrick Fabian went on to play Professor Landry on Veronica Mars. The first time I saw him on that, I was like, "He...looks familiar," and it was one of those things that stuck in the back of my mind as I watched. And then I had to double-check, because I came up with "Lasky," but was all, "No, that can't be it; it's too close to Landry!"

I'm just going to go ahead and assume that Rob Thomas and/or the casting folks at VM were big Saved by the Bell fans and wrote the part for Patrick Fabian.
