You may remember Natalia Cigliuti as Lindsay Warner (aka Kelly Kapowski number 2), the girlfriend of Thomas ‘Tommy D’ De Luca (aka Zack Morris number 2) on Saved By The Bell: The New Class. Now the 30-year-old New York native is starring (and flirting) with the original Zack Morris - Mark Paul Gosselaar - as Bobbi Gilardi in TNT’s new drama Raising The Bar (the latest episode airs tonight at 10 pm). I had a chance to speak with Cigliuti and naturally got down to the tough questions - like what she’s watching on TV. See her list below.

All-Time Favorite Shows:

Lost: It’s just the best show ever! Period. My family, all of them…we get…we’re just obsessed. It’s just the best show. I can’t even explain it. My brothers and I always talk and we get pissed if people don’t watch watch it. How can you not watch this show? It’s the best show ever. I got my aunts and my mom [together], we got the DVDs and they watched it. They literally didn’t leave the house for like like 3 days, watching Lost. It’s Amazing.

Grey’s Anatomy: That show just pulls at my heart.

I Love Lucy: Just love it.

Twin Peaks: It has that Lost feel. Such a great show! I actually watched it 10 or 12 years ago when friend of mine told me about it. At the time there were no DVD’s so I got this one thing and it was like the first 13. That was all you could get and I needed to see more, so I ordered it on Amazon on VHS.

The Office (BBC): Ricky Gervais. He’s a f–king genius. Sorry. He’s a genius. When I went to London this past December I bought all of his stand-ups. All 3 years. I was crying. I love British Humor. Love it. They are dryer and wittier. Well not wittier, it’s just the way they deliver certain things. They insult you but with a smile. Like I think I was just insulted. I don’t really know!

Great Show She’s Never Seen:

Mad Men, I’ve never seen that and heard so many great things. I’ve never watched 24, or The Wire.

Guilty Pleasure:

It usually ends up being like The Bachelorette or something. Or American Idol. Usually guilty pleasures for me are reality TV. People are so crazy.
