Editorial Review: Product Description: Australia released, NTSC/Region 0 DVD: LANGUAGES: English ( Dolby Digital Stereo ), SPECIAL FEATURES: Box Set, Collectors Edition, Interactive Menu, Multi-DVD Set, Scene Access, SYNOPSIS: Baywatch premiered in April 1989 and enjoyed a successful run throughout the 90s before coming to an end in 2001. The show took the role of the lifeguard and completely transformed it, adding adventure, excitement and sex appeal to an occupation that seemed an unlikely basis for a TV show. David Hasselhoff filled the lead role of Lt. Mitch Bucannon and while a bevy of curvaceous beauties stood by his side, including Pamela Anderson, who played CJ Parker for five seasons (debuting in Season Three), other notable names such as Erika Eleniak, Billy Warlock, John Allen Nelson and Australia's own Peter Phelps donned the infamous red swimsuit. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Below the bottom of the barrelThe adjective "bad" is not nearly strong enough to describe this TV series. Horrible, insulting, stupid, inept... Nope, I just can't come up with the perfect description. I didn't watch the series when it was on TV and thought I'd give it a shot on DVD. Big mistake. First of all, I've been on a good many resort beaches, and they are not inhabited by such bevvies of giggly gaggles of young women in mini-bikinis as we see here. Rather, there are a great many middle-aged and old people wearing bathing suits that make one want to look elsewhere. I know because I am one of the latter. The plots of "Baywatch," what there is of them in the individual episodes, are silly. They consist of showing nubile, would-be starlets romping around on sunny California beaches for no particular reason and body building lifeguards rushing into the surf with red floats to save some poor fool who only addition to the story is drowning. Most of the females have no speaking lines or mercifully few lines, which is just as well. When the girls were hired, at the urging of Playboy Magazine, I suspect, learning lines wasn't part of the talents on their resume. Giggling, yes, speaking, no. The acting of those with speaking roles is laughable. Of course, given the dialogue written for them, it is somewhat understandable. The cast does not include one person who could act. Not one. I managed to sit through four episodes, and in the immortal words of Popeye, "I can't stands no more." I realize that some viewers liked this show, and that it was a world-wide phenomonon. I also realize that I'll probably get some nasty comments for this, but so be it. Rating:  - A MAJOR DISSAPOINTMENTThis 1989-90 Season of BAYWATCH was not what I had expected or hoped for since the introduction credits didn't have the original BAYWATCH theme song of "Save Me" by Peter Cetera that was originally played at the beginning of each of these episodes when they were on NBC, plus they deleted the previews of most of these episodes and they even deleted and replaced the original songs of each episodes with other songs in every episode, plus this DVD didn't even provide Closed Captioned on top of that either. Therefore this BAYWATCH DVD was totally not worth it and almost nothing like it was shown on NBC. Rating: - I use to love this show!!!!I was a fan of Baywatch from the begininng. The only thing different is the music, which is not a big deal. The show is good, and the quality of this set is good. If you were a fan of Baywatch, I would recommend buying this set, its how I remember watching it! Rating: - The Real First SeasonLike almost everyone I was slighly upset when I found out the other first season was really season 2. This season has some of the episodes that made it a classic. Plus it had some of my all time favorite characters; Craig, Gina, Jill, Trevor and Cort. It doesn't have any extras and the episode title is not listed on the DVDs. This does make it kind of hard if you are looking for a specific episode. But that all aside this is a must have for any Baywatch fan. Rating: - ExcelentI'm a brazilian fan (sorry my english), and i buy this Baywatch first season and i recommend for everyone! If had legend would be better, but is very easy to understand even when you aren't from US, UK or Australia.
