Sunny knows the comments Mario has made about the transgender community in the past. But she stayed professional. Love you Sunny.

[CandieJC]

He has always been such a pleasant soul. Literally such a beautiful heart.

Mario Lopez!! Doesn’t get any better 💖✨

[LilliLamour]

He's a sweetheart. I had a crush on him when he did Kids Incorporated, and then went to high school with him. Shout out Chula Vista lol. RIP Ms. Hunt.

Lark Voorhies didn’t get a call about this reboot? That’s messed up.

would be an awesome friend to have. lovely guy

[sammavacaist]

Yay Sunny for calling him out without directly calling him out! He sounded really uncomfortable.

[okaygo]

Whoopie and Joy seemed like they hated doing that interview

[BollywoodTherapy]

How does he look practically the same tho?

[pauljansen]

why do a reboot on a series about teenagers when these people are now about to hit their midlife crisis?

[marlonharrison]

Thank you for posting this. My stupid Governor interrupt with COVID updated.

Mario Lopez still got it. He is still the man.

I caught reruns of saved by the bell, it was a great show. I just wish some of these actors turned executive producers would finance projects that are new and fresh. There’s so many important voices out there that get tv deals and get canceled sometimes without even airing on r they got under people’s radars because of marketing. It’s great that people can indulge in their nostalgia by watching a reboot of a show but I just wish that there were more funding for original projects as well that seems to be lacking in my opinion.

That working out for "sanity not vanity" is a really great line, but definitely not his journey.

[ohioguyjc]

I was really hoping that he would call out the one who referred to Elizabeth Berkeley as Elizabeth Hurley but he was nice about it. I think if you are in journalism, you should probably research those kinds of things. Elizabeth Hurley is a completely different person.

[petechielie]

How come these ladies didn't attack him for his conservatism, I am appalled.

[rekcusdoo]

Whoopi remember that time she was turned down to appear on Saved By The Bell or something! Sheesh!

[mumble.jumbles]

Elizabeth Hurley. Was she a British exchange student?

[abhishekpradhan]

Is it just me or he looks like a male version of Naya Rivera (rip)

I mean I'm personally willing to forgive Mario's past missteps in communication with regards to the LGBTQ community and I'm glad Sunny held him accountable with the push for inclusive and diverse casts even though I think it was obvious he was squirming his way through it. At the end of the day it's not as if he's known for his brains, he's just family-friendly eye candy for moms and housewives; I really wouldn't expect an intelligent and thoughtful comment from him on anything let alone LGBTQ representation or raising trans children in loving and affirming homes. It's just good to see him not making waves or being problematic.
