Full disclosure: back in the day, Baywatch was a guilty pleasure of mine.
Having said that, I certainly don't want it to return, either as a TV show or a big screen movie or a video game or even a set of glassware. But I do like this Funny or Die video below, which shows the return of Nicole Eggert. Hey, she still looks OK to me!
I wouldn't buy these DVDs, but if I was Baywatch fan, I'd be kinda ticked.
There are two different Baywatch sets coming out in the next few weeks, but according to TVShowsonDVD, the sets will not only be missing a couple of episodes (including "Nightmare Bay" and another ep that marked Pamela Anderson's first appearance), but the theme song will be different! Other music might be replaced too, but no official word on that yet.
The reason why those two episodes won't be seen is because another company owns the rights to them. I have no idea how one company owns the rights to two episodes of Baywatch and another company owns the rights to the gazillion others, but there you go.
Jessica Simpson
continues her run at movie roles that don't actually require her to act (but they do require her to show off her
boobs). She will play Pamela Anderson's character in the movie version of Baywatch. Apparently her turn as
Daisy Duke last summer really wowed the makers of the next television-to-the-big-screen project. Oh man, I suppose that
means she's going to re-make another song. What will it be this time? 'Good Vibrations'? Ha!
According to FOX News, producers of the Baywatch movie hope
that David Hasselhoff will agree to sign on to the flick since Jessica is on board.
