Mark‑Paul Gosselaar Stuns With Ripped Physique in Surprise Upfronts Promotion for Bulges

Viral footage of the actor’s cropped tank and short shorts spotlights a deliberately provocative marketing push meant to boost the Crave workplace comedy’s visibility.

Overview

  • The actor made a surprise appearance at Bell Media’s Toronto Upfronts in June 2026 where he wore a cropped tank, short shorts and knee‑high socks and danced on stage while promoting the series.
  • A TikTok clip posted by TheFilmTripper quickly went viral, drawing large online reaction and nostalgic references to Gosselaar’s Zack Morris persona.
  • Bell Media and Deadline describe Bulges as a cheeky workplace comedy about the staff of an all‑male restaurant in Niagara Falls that is “if Hooters was designed for women.”
  • Crave has officially picked up Bulges as an eight‑episode series following the 2024 special The Dessert Presents: St. Bulges Day, and production is reported to be underway.
  • Gosselaar and co‑stars made tongue‑in‑cheek remarks about wardrobe and prosthetics, and coverage notes there is no U.S. release date yet while the viral moment increases the show’s attention and promotional reach.
