Dirty Diamond: Screech grew up and made a sleazy comeback
SCREECH AND SNIFF Dustin Diamond had some growing pains
Former Partridge Family child star Danny Bonaduce hit rock bottom last year on his own reality TV show, paving the way for 2006's B-list breakdown of Dustin Diamond, otherwise known as the dweebish and disturbed Screech in the low-budget 90's teen show Saved by the Bell. Apparently all Diamonds depreciate with age. This year, the maturing 'teen' made appearances on MTV and The Howard Stern Show pleading with audiences to buy his T-shirts lest his home mortgage face foreclosure. Each garment is emblazoned with the words: "I paid $15.00 to Save Screeech's House." The extra "e" added to Screech was added because Diamond did not own the rights to its original spelling. Months later, a journalist who obtained information that many people had not received their T-shirts, claimed that Diamond was using the supposed foreclosure as a publicity stunt. Either way, he was clearly not wearing one—or much of anything else when he performed in Screeched, his purportedly "leaked" adult film. In it, Diamond performs mythically revolting sex acts like the Dirty Sanchez, meriting such skin-curdling alternate titles as Saved by the Smell.
