Synopsis

TV Series (1989-2001). 11 Seasons. 242 Episodes. This long-running series follows the adventures of a team of lifeguards on a crowded resort beach. Veteran lifeguard Mitch Buchannon watches over the younger lifeguards that come and go with each passing season as they keep the beaches safe for vacationers. Frequently he must take action to save them from the raging seas and from the raging tempers that sometimes flare up between the young guards in this stressful job.

Critics' reviews

"Let's be honest, it's the oiled bodies that will bring viewers back (...) Pleasant, if unstimulating"

Richard Hack: The Hollywood Reporter
"Although the sights are beautiful, the premiere is less a story than a seascape, lacking the dramatic intensity and credible characters necessary to sustain an hour"

Howard Rosenberg: Los Angeles Times
"Really, honestly, actually, it isn't all that bad...It's sort of like "Flipper" without the dolphin."

Tom Shales: The Washington Post
"There are worse things than ending the workweek watching bikinis and biceps, sun and surf."

Rick Kogan: Chicago Tribune
"Baywatch is a pleasant, if unstimulating, way to begin a weekend."

Richard Hack: The Hollywood Reporter
