• Son of the Beach Submission Guidelines

  Welcome to the Son of the Beach episode guide here at TV.com! Son of the Beach was one of the funniest shows on TV, and ...more »

  Welcome to the Son of the Beach episode guide here at TV.com! Son of the Beach was one of the funniest shows on TV, and I hope that fans of the show find this guide as much fun, and informative too. There's a lot of info that exists regarding any TV show, and it's rare that any guide is fully complete..so, quality contributions are most definitely welcomed here! I'll try to cover most of the details regarding contributions to Son of the Beach for contributors to refer to. Always feel free to PM me if there is any question about a potential contribution, as that is better than being unsure and getting the contribution rejected. First off, always try to follow TV.com's formatting guidelines for any contribution. I'll try to edit a contributor's bad formatting the first time or so, but after that, if proper formatting is not followed, the bad contributions will be rejected. Always be sure to read approval PMs, as they may contain a note regarding the contribution that needs attention. Second, be aware of the particular styles used on this guide. A consistency to the guide is very important, so be aware of how characters' names are used on the guide, for example. Third, always provide your source for the info in the comment box, even if you are just getting the info from the episode itself. If I can't verify your submssion, then it will be rejected. Fourth, check your spelling and grammar...make sure they are correct. Let's try to make the guide as professional-looking as possible. I'll correct minor mistakes the first time or two, but don't take it for granted. Here are a few more specific rules: Summaries : Most of the episode summaries are fine, but a few could be written in a better way if you are familiar with the episode. Always remember that it's an editor's judgement as to whether an existing summary should be replaced with a new one. Do not copy an already existing summary from somewhere else and swap a few words around...use your own impressions of what the episode is about, and leave out any major spoilers. Recaps : Many episodes still need recaps, so bring them on. Make sure they are well written and complete. I won't accept a recap submission if I have to rewrite most of it myself. Airdates, Episode Numbers, Production Codes, etc. : As far as I know, these are accurate and complete. If you find evidence contrary to this, PM me with the info and proof. If I agree with the evidence that your info is more correct, then you will have a greenlight to send these contributions and replace the existing info. Otherwise, I'll likely reject submissions attempting to change this important data. Cast/Crew Info : Cast is mostly complete already, but that's not to say that there's not a mistake or omission here or there (or the use of duplicate IDs). I've checked most of the credits against the episode credits themselves. I'll likely reject "uncredited" additions that are taken from sites such as IMdb, since no one knows if they are correct or not. As far as Crew submissions, completeness is required...don't submit just a few crew memebers, submit them all in one submission. Character names for blurb contributions : For consistency, use the characters' complete names in quotes, and the complete names in the first instance of other submissions. The names are funny, so let's use them! Notes : Notes are "off-screen" events that pertain to the episode (or the show in general) such as tidbits regarding production. Plot points are not Notes. Quotes : Make sure they're interesting and short. Remember that I can check them against the episode subtitles. Use the complete character names as I explained above. Do not transcribe entire scenes. Trivia : Be sure that Trivia contibutions relate to something actually seen or heard in the episode that a viewer might miss the first time around. Plot points are not trivia. Be aware of the difference between Trivia and Notes. Also, I'm not a big fan of bloopers. I don't consider anything that can be rationally explained, or rationalized by a scene edit, to be a blooper. The events of a TV show rarely take place in real time, and it's the viewer's blooper to think that they do. If a character drops a hat in one scene, but has it back in a later scene, then as far as I am concerned, the character put the hat back on during the scene transition. True bloopers like a mike boom in the shot are welcome contributions, but let's otherwise keep Trivia relevant and interesting. Allusions : There are plenty of allusions in a show like this. Most Allusion contributions are speculative by their very nature, but use common sense and a little bit of research for these. Try to make the allusion blurb informatively complete. Be aware of the proper way to write an Allusion blurb that is based upon a passing (direct) reference. If you have any question about how to do this, PM me first...I'm glad to help. Reviews : Hey, it's your review. Write what you wish! But try to keep it interesting, and explain why you liked the episode...or, why you didn't. Links : Links-only submissions are now allowed by TV.com, but only to TV.com pages...no links to other sites! Be sure to vote on the episodes you have seen, but please use a realistic opinion. Rating the episodes all 10s or all 1s is pointless. I generally use the hundred point, "letter grade" system. An excellent episode might get a 9.0 (90%, an "A-"), and an average, but not-great episode might get a 7.0 (a "C-")...lower ratings such as a 2.5 would be a case where the episode really flunks on most every level. This is an easy rating system to use, but feel free to use your own rating criteria...just try to be consistant and realistic. Feel free to PM me with any questions or suggestions!less «

  "Son of the Beach" follows the misadventures of famous head lifeguard Notch Johnson (Timothy Stack) and the members of his scintillating unit SPF-30. hide « show »

  "Son of the Beach" follows the outrageous misadventures of famous head lifeguard Notch Johnson (Timothy Stack) and the members of his scintillating unit SPF-30. Notch Johnson and his well-endowed misfits protect the sunny beaches of Malibu Adjacent from countless dangers including sinister cult leaders, dangerous mobsters, greedy developers and evil terrorists. "Son of the Beach" is the side-splitting "Baywatch" parody that premiered on the FX Network in the spring of 2000. If you like mindless entertainment and scantily-clad women, then you're going to enjoy "Son of the Beach". The comedy series won't win any awards for its silly stories and lame acting but does offer an abundance of silly clichés, bawdy sex jokes, skimpy eye candy and great low-brow humor. The series features special appearances by actors and celebrities such as Mark Hamill, Erik Estrada, Gary Coleman, John Salley, Joey Buttafuoco, Adam Carolla, Jerry Springer and Hank the Angry Drunken Dwarf.

  Totaly hilarious!! hide « show »

  I really miss this show, it brought some serious raunch into my other wise bland childhood! Regardless I loved how it mocked Hasslehoff and Pam Anderson, who couldn't deserve it more... Props to Howard Steern!
  
  My favorite character was firebush, she was Notch's Native-American cousin who wore "traditional" clothing and road a horse on the beach.

  Not funny!!! hide « show »

  this show is not funny . A big waste of time I don't even know why I watched it. The most stupid show in this world. Even the most silly person won't watch it. It is suppose to be a comedy show but I didn't see or hear something funny in it. Change the channel quickly...

  Do you agree?
