    Baywatch is back with a new season, and the difference is definitely felt a bit. I'm glad we have some of our characters back, but I'm having just a tiny bit of trouble adjusting to some of the new ones.

    The main story regarding the sea monster is definitely a bit interesting, yet it seems to be going on two long - maybe it's the fact that this is a two-part episode after all. The setup was nice. Meanwhile, the second story was also quite good until after the rescue. I don't really know why Shauni would have such a huge interest in the life of that girl she rescued, but I guess we'll see.

    As for the new characters, I don't really care for Ben (and yes, I realize it's Al from the pilot) one bit, while Harvey is going on my nerves just by appearing on-screen. Sure, it's nice having a goofball, but this isn't really what I'm looking for in a character. Also, the new Hobie is okay.moreless

    This was a ok episode! Truthfully It could have been alot better than it was but whatever! I do like the cast better now! Seems like a better show than during season 1! I especially love the new Hobie! I love Hobie so much, hes so cute, sweet, and such a boy! lol! He defenantly likes to have fun, even if it means scaring the crap out of his dad! Mitch didnt like the little practical joke that was played on him but in the end it was all good! I also thought the scene of Hobie asleep in his dads bed was so adorable! Those 2 really look alot alike! Average episode!moreless

    • Writer and producer Deborah Bonann Schwartz appears in this episode during the press conference near the beach.

    • Jeremy Jackson´s naturally dark hair was lightened so that the new Hobie would resemble his former screen incarnation. Jackson is four years younger than Brandon Call the previous actor to play Hobie and, as a result, Hobie now appears younger than he did when he first appeared in the 1989 TV-movie.

    • This episode originally aired as a two-hour episode with the next episode. The two-part episode was later released on video as Baywatch: Nightmare Bay.

    • Visual changes from the first season on NBC to the first season in syndication include: 1) Mitch´s house (although it looks the same from the outside, the kitchen has been moved inside) and 2) the lifeguard uniforms are now white instead of grey.

    • This episode marks the series successful revival in syndication after it was cancelled after one season on NBC.
