[Blind Gossip] We’ve talked to you before about this former TV actor and how different his current life is from his former life.
He is a comedic actor who is best known for a quirky and iconic role he had on a sitcom in the 1990s.
He experienced a series of personal problems that led to a string of unfortunate events.
His issues persisted over many years.
He was such a mess, in fact, that when he former cast mates got together to do a revival of the series, they left our actor out in the cold. Yes, even though he was one of the principals of the original production!
We told you that he ran out of job prospects and money and wound up moving back in with his parents.
However, that seemed to spark a positive change in him. Living with them was going well. He seemed sober and happy.
Unfortunately, he has gone off the track again.
He was recently drinking with a group of people in a warm weather state.
Went to a party at [redacted’s] house in [redacted] and couldn’t believe [Actor] was there! I used to watch his show in the 90s.
We got to party hard with him for hours.
Nice guy, but, man, he is an absolute train wreck!
Darn. Just when we thought he had cleaned up.
We wonder if his sobriety came to a screeching halt because he was rejected from the revival of the show that made him famous?
Here’s hoping his train has just temporarily derailed and Actor can get back on track soon!

Matthew Perry. He needs to accept and acknowledge that he has a serious problem or else no amount of money or rehab can save him.

Awww….this makes me sad. Matthew Perry from Friends
He needs to surround himself with family/friends that will support him in his pursuit to remain sober and keep up with AA program or the such. Stay away from the enablers and partiers… learn to deal with the rejections in more healthy ways. As a person of faith, I believe God is more powerful than our greatest weakness.

Dustin needs to get past it and return to school. It is too bad he wasn’t properly councilled on how to begin a new life.
TeaDrinker says
Dustin Diamond he played Screech on Saved By the Bell (screeching was a clue).

He has to hit his bottom, and unfortunately, sometimes the “bottom” is death. Very sad.

Actor: Dustin Diamond
Show: Saved By The Bell
Clues: Screeching halt
SilverLining says
Dustin Diamond
He needs to really let go of the past. It would do it like Janet Hubert did with Will Smith but I am absolutely sure that ship has sailed for any reconciliation between he and his former Saved ByThe Bell castmates. That ‘tell all’ book ruined any chance of that no matter how much he denounces it now. So he needs to really needs to get that out of his system and a LOT of rehab. If there’s any chance of a showbiz career he needs to completely RE-BRAND AFTER he’s better.

Optnl: I could make a stupid joke about it taking the Bell to save him, but I won’t. 😲🙄 (Okay, I did.) Seriously, I don’t think that people can be saved from themselves unless they have a catastrophe or near catastrophe happen in their life that involves them in their addiction(s) to hopefully awaken them.

There needs to come a point where he wants to save himself, his friends and family can’t exactly tie him down.

Dustin Diamond. He’s so gross, and really once he started and ended puberty his Screech persona was uncomfortably unfunny. Glad he wasn’t brought back. He’d bring the show down.

Aw 🙁 so sad! I want the best for these folks. And for everyone. Wish life didn’t have to be so hard.

Dustin Diamond
He has to want it for himself, nobody can make him get healthy. Addiction is not a joke. Hopefully he has a good support system that can help him and be understanding that relapses are very common, but not the end of recovery.
angelbratt says

Optional: Unfortunately, I don’t think he will stop abusing drugs or alcohol until he dies.
Erioku says
Screech, saved by the bell.
What a shame. He always struck me as a nice guy. Perhaps a kind girlfriend could straighten him out but I imagine it’s hard to find someone if partying so hard

CaintGetEnuff says
Not Matthew Perry. It is definitely Dustin Diamond from “Saved By The Bell”.
His sobriety came to a screeching halt – he was Screech
butwhatever says
Dustin Diamond, of course, but I’m just chiming in to say “Thanks for nothing!” to the people who were ‘partying hard’ with him. Sure, it’s his own job to stay sober, but if you thought he was such a nice guy, maybe support that?
HWeasley says
People saying Matthew Perry- he’s secured a role in a film starring Meryl Streep and Leonardo Di Caprio so I wouldn’t call that running out of opportunities
ivyleaguer says
Dustin Diamond. Screech. How did anyone think this was Matthew Perry when the “screeching halt” reference made this very clear?
butwhytho says
Dustin Diamond. Initially thought Matthew Perry but remembered he has a sweet crib in Malibu. Def not his moms house.
Clue : Screeching and Principal, references to save by the bell.
