Gosselaar, who rewatched the 1990 episode as part of his Zack to the Future podcast, said he had forgotten about the racist depiction. "I cringed seeing myself portraying a white dude being Zack Morris, who is like the all-American, blond-haired white dude in an Indian Native American headdress," he said, according to People magazine. He added: "This is one of those that I don't, I don't like remember putting on the headdress. I don't remember putting face paint on. I don't remember standing in that awkward way that I was standing where my arms are folded and like a very stereotypical way...This episode would never get made in current times, and rightly so."
