Duplicate Scenario played out 10 years apart 1986-87 & 1996-97: HOTT Female Teen star of popular successful TV series grows up, and then seeks to branch out and make "an artistic Statement" designed to highlight her Acting Ability and put some distance between the star and her here-to-fore Signature trademark role.
Hence, in 1997, Liz (Lez) Berkeley's Career, much like Lisa Bonet (Lisa Boner / Lisa Bone-"hey"!!....) a decade before her, went into the crapper right after Showgirlz Bombed...in a split second all of Liz/Lez's momentum built up by starring on Saved By The Bell was gone...similarly, in 1987, Lisa Bone-A shocked everyone, including the greatest Negro Parent/Comedian/Educator/employer_of_other_Black_Actors_with_marginal_talent_like_malcom_jamal_warner_and Phylicia Rashad in the Post Slavery era, William H. Cosby, Ph.D, by playing a sex crazed young devil worshipping (and Devil Fucking as it turns out) slut who bangs Mickey Rourke's Doomed debauched lead character, Harold ("Harry" Hairy)Angel, in the Amazingly good-but-commercially-unsuccessful Horror Flick Angel Heart. Upon seeing Lisa Bonet's amazingly explicit and erotic scenes in Angel Heart, William H. Cosby, Ph.D (aka "Bill", aaka the voice of "Fat Albert") fired her sexy ass.
The End.
