Baywatch was the global TV phenomenon of the Nineties. At its peak this glossy beach soap was watched by over one billion people in one hundred and forty countries worldwide, with people soaking themselves in the drama of Malibu beach life and taking to the show like lifeguards to water! This is the first time every episode from Season One has been available on DVD in the UK.
David Hasselhoff (Knight Rider, Spongebob Squarepants the Movie) is Mitch Buchannon, a single-parent lifeguard who is the mentor for a crowd of hip, young, attractive lifeguards as they come and go, keeping the beach safe for the masses. The series’ simple premise caught the imagination of teenagers and family audiences alike and the show launched the careers of numerous hotties that would go on to cause heatwaves, including Billy Warlock, Erika Eleniak, Pamela Anderson, Yasmine Bleeth, Donna D’Ericco, Carmen Electra and Tracey Bingham. Viewers were not just drawn to the show by the lifeguards battling the elements and beach crime; the public were captivated by the chemistry between some of the lifeguards, which often sent temperatures soaring and which kept the public guessing.
A landmark TV show that was a ratings smash for over a decade and that still remains a topic of conversation today, this box set contains all twenty-two episodes of bikini-clad and sexy six-pack action and will appeal to all fans of escapist drama, David Hasselhoff and tantalising totty. Baywatch – you’ll drown in sorrow without it.
