I was like, "they better not kill off Mark! Nooooo!" Ironic that he's usually the one to never go to extremes and yet here he does.

Miss this show.. this was on when i was really young ..it was one of the TNBC shows i never missed..this and hang time, saved by the bell, city guys

This brings back memories. I always feel like a kid watching this

Tara Reid's character on this episode suits her well!! 🤣😂🤣

This is a lesson to all teens on the dangers of drinking

Tiffany Tony and sly did all the seasons

R.I.P., George Segal. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

California Dreams had that floating timeline, these "kids" looked college aged even in the early seasons.

Mark didn’t watch Degrassi Schools Out. Wheels was drunk and ending up killing a kid and blinding Lucy.

Is anyone else a bit amused by Tara Reid playing the drunken object of Mark's affection?

Miss the nineties I used to watch this show

Samantha made the right choice by having Mark talk at graduation

Jake & Tiffani Tony & Same Sly & Lorena Mark is the only one without a girlfriend

Wow Tara Reid learned nothing from her own character in this ep lol.

LOVE SLY CLEAN AND SOBER IT IS

Aaron Jackson is a standout on this show.

Brings back memories👻

The whole loud-ass party stopped when the cop announced the accident.😅😆😂

Has anyone noticed that they have played this song a couple of times and it reverts back to Season 2, Episode 3 when Jake wrote the song for Jenny; before she went to Oxford? For someone who was going out with Tiffani, I wonder how someone could sing a song that was written for someone else? Then again, this is only a show! HAHA

S 5 E 12 ~ "Graduation" ~ November 22, 1996 ~ Mark drinks alcohol at a graduation party to make a girl like him, which has tragic consequences when he drives drunk. Meanwhile, Jake and Tiffani must complete a last-minute project to graduate while Tony helps Sam with her valedictorian speech.

A couple of years later she was a senior again in American pie

I miss this show

california dreams and saved by the bell did episodes on big issues like drinking, drugs, and smoking that teens struggle with, but neither did episodes on AIDS, stds, teen pregnancy, eating disorders and suicide that teens also struggle with.

How could mark succumb to peer pressure about drinking and be so irresponsible? And all to impress a girl? And impress friends? And to be cool? He basically ruined his life and the girl's life too. He should have put his foot down and said "no i will not drink" And if the girl dumped him because of that, so be it. There are plenty of other girls who would have gone out with him and want to have some nice clean fun.

That song ("I Don't Know Why") reminds me of "How Do You Talk to an Angel" by The Heights.

Normally someone in high school who drives drunk and causes and accident wouldn’t be allowed to walk at graduation.

4:24 “This whole thing’s a BUMMA!”

Tony' s drum kit has two crash cymbals and no ride cymbal.

Miss this show

Just a thought; I think the reality of peer pressure is obvious to fit in but many are missing the facts of what leads to peer pressure whereas the whole band ignored Mark and were selfish to his feeling of not fitting in etc so it made sense that he felt powerful when he drank...sometimes we fail to acknowledge the part we play in others demise as Mark was always there for them but they came across like they didn't care and that can lead ppl into wrong decision making

This was a LESSON to all the TEENS in the 90's on the Dangers of Drinking and Sex. I was 7 in 1996 but I wasn't a Teen in the 90's thank god.

Class of 97! Holy shit! I'm class of 07!

two six packs do not make beer party

the girl was just as much to blame as mark was. way to make the instigator 'the victim'.

Kelly Packard did she got married during the last season of the show or after the show ended because I see she wed 1996 she got on Baywatch after the expected being a cast members this time played a different character because she made a guest appearances during the time she did this show here

California dreams and saved by the bell did episodes on big issues that teens deal and struggle with such as drugs, smoking, and alcohol, but neither did episodes about AIDS, stds, teen pregnancy, eating disorders which teens also struggle with.

California Dreams is much better than Saved By The Bell!! Season 5

that's my fav line, from this show. "Ow! my eye!" LOL. I heard that from season 1, episode 13, when the whole family stayed around.

What kind of graduation assembly is that 😆

Wouldn't the police officer have contacted Mark's parents instead of his cousin? LOL!

The moral of the story is don't drink and drive and if you're under 21 don't drink.

so far in this series sly has had 2 beautiful girls one is lorena and allison damn he has been lucky lol

All this time I didn't realize William Utay(Rolf for Days fans) was in this episode.

I didn't even recognize Tara Reid!

Was mark Crazy he wasn’t suppose to drink

I wish California dreams make another ablum

I was 9 years old

Damn shit got real

wow this was 20 yes ago???

Why would Jake and Tiffany's school project be at Lorena's house? Lol

I wonder if they were really drinking beer or it was juice in the cans

She's fine i hope you get some

If the TV show started in 1992 and they graduated in 1997, were they at the institute for more than 5 years? Very bad students 😅

I am class of '94

At the end, even though it said "Class of 1997", it said ASS of 1997. That was crazy AND stupid. The camera could've rolled up or back just a little, u know?

It's dr roof from dool

But the comedy started in 1992 not 1993

4:22 This whole thing's OBAMA

Isn’t Mark’s dad a lawyer? Anyways, He’ll be fine. Court, Fines, CWOF, alcohol is bad courses, pee in a cup for a year and he’ll be back on his feet in a year.

Mark winkle, and Lorena Costa were added in season 3 And Jake summers and Samantha woo added in season 2!

Holy shot sam said Obama

13:14, should've listened to Sara, Mark.

Wheat beer is better than barley. Don’t drink and drive

You guys will get arrested

The girl you like mark she will look good in a bikini

So Mark started Tarra down the nut bag road

How was that girl hired to act ever. !?!

mark was the only character besides loraina not to come back for the reunion on jimmy fallon

I wish they had Tara Reid on here all along instead of the exchange student Poon Tang.

This so cringe…😂

I remember when I first saw this ep as a kid/teen and was so angry about how they dealt with the drink driving. He essentially got away with it, no one hated him/treated him differently and he wasn't charged etc. Really irresponsible x #1899 #renew1899 #1899netflix
