Zack Morris said he had "undeniable chemistry" with one of the stars.
Mark-Paul Gosselaar got real about who he vibed with more between Tiffani Thiessen and Leah Remini while kissing the actresses on "Saved by the Bell."
During a recent episode of his "Zack to the Future" podcast, the actor dished on the lip locking while he welcomed his guest Leah, who played Zack Morris' love interest, Stacey Carosi, when the Bayside bunch took summer jobs at Malibu Sands Beach Resort during 1991's season 3.

"Those are real kisses," he added.
The former "Mixed-ish" star then compared their on-screen love affair to the one he had with Tiffani, who played Zack's main squeeze, Kelly Kapowski, for most of the series. The pair would eventually marry in a 1994 special.
"Tiffani and I never had a kiss like we have -- on these six episodes," Mark-Paul explained to Leah. "But there is not a single person that Zack comes into contact with, in my opinion, that had a chemistry that you and I had."

Although Mark-Paul insisted he and Leah never had anything going on "in real life," he said, "it definitely seems like there's something there" in the episodes.
"And we liked each other," Leah chimed in. "We got along, we laughed, we had a good time. I don’t know if you remember that, but there was never any weirdness between us."
