    Interesting. hide « show »

    I have to be honest. Part of the reason I watched was for the ladies in bikinis. I will say that the show was actually quite good in terms of storylines, action, and entertainment. It was the best in the first 6 seasons, but after that, things were very dismal. The acting wasn't as bad as some people say it was, but it was not always great either. I liked the parts when the lifeguards would save the swimmers. Overall, this is a decent show that I thought was interesting and entertaining for the first few years. After that, it was never the same or as good. Thank you.

    This was an awesome, fun show. Beautiful people, beautiful beaches! Most of the episodes were action and fun packed. With just the right amount of humor thrown in. hide « show »

    This was an awesome, fun show. Beautiful people, beautiful beaches! Most of the episodes were action and fun packed. With just the right amount of humor thrown in. Actresses like Pam Anderson, Yasmine Bleeth, and Gena Lee Nolin always made this show worth viewing. The mid to late 90's were the best episodes in my opinion. There is no wonder that this show was so popular worldwide. My wife and I always try to watch it whenever we can find it on the air. Usually it is worth a few laughs and some pretty scenery. It always brings back good memories for us.

    A classic slice of 90s Popcorn TV hide « show »

    Ah `Baywatch` :). One of the great wonders of the TV world.

    How did a show which basic premise seems so shallow, end up lasting for 11 Seasons? The majority believe it to be based on the toned female and male bodies that continuously appear on screen. But surely after a season or two, that would just get boring?

    In truth, I feel the answer actually lies in the opening lyrics of the original `Baywatch` theme song, `Above the Waterline`:

    "Everything's just right,
    Sun burns in a perfect blue sky.
    I look; looking good, another day in the neighbourhood. For every guy, there is a girl; It's a Monday in a Saturday world."

    That to me sums up a truly idyllic lifestyle. The warm sun, beauty as far as the eyes can see, and a fun loving lifestyle. It is a true fantasy life, a wonderful break from the repetive norm of our day to day lives, where you can almost feel the heat of the sun coming out of your TV. `Baywatch` isn't about gripping storylines, it's about escapism, true and simple, and that is why it lasted so long :).

    It is a great shame that due to legal rights issues, the rest of the seasons are very unlikely to ever be released in the UK or America :(, as this show never lost it's appeal throughout it's entire run :).

    I Once Called It Babewatch hide « show »

    First, if you watch baywatch for any other reason besides checking out womens bodies i dont understand you.when i was younger i thought it was great but now i see the lame acting and poor stories and it makes it hard to enjoy.If baywatch was on i might watch it because not every episode was lame but i must say i couldnt see myself buying the series on dvd,unless it came with a calandar or some cool special features that was heavily babe centered.bottom line; its a good show at times but not like it usted to be.also, when i first watched baywatch i thought the women showed alot of skin but compared to today they seem to be dressed for a blizzard.final comment, i still like the theme song to baywatch it makes me want to grab and surfboard and go save somebody whos drowning.

    One of life's guiltiest guilty pleasures. hide « show »

    Every time I hear the word "Baywatch," I remember this great and long-running series that marked the 90s and is still one of the best shows in it's genre.

    The show tells a simple yet complex story of a group of lifeguards who live their usual life and try to combine it with their personal life. They are beautiful. They are sexy. Maybe they aren't talented, but that isn't what this show is about. This show isn't looking for perfection. But the fact that it isn't perfect makes the show just perfect.

    I've enjoyed each episode of the show. Each actress/actor did their job amazingly. This show definitely is one of life's guiltiest guilty pleasures. I always did and always will love and respect this show. And I don't see why some people don't like this show.

    The trick is not to look for perfection, but only to enjoy the perfect combination of beautiful and sexy people who aren't perfect and are doing their best to live their life as usual.
