Premise
The show was very similar in style to Saved by the Bell, but with an urban setting and more diverse cast. The show was mainly driven by the main characters, Jamal (Wesley Johnathan) and Chris (Scott Whyte) who had to stay on the ball in high school and avoid trouble, while their principal attempted to keep them in line. Jamal's and Chris' similar personalities caused friction between them in the beginning, but as the series went on, they became best friends. The boys and their friends dealt with the typical teen issues, such as cheating on tests, peer pressure and dealing with school violence.
