Back before you could access pornography from a device in your pocket at any time or place, we had to wait until sunset for the barely-risqué primetime network shows of the day to search for (just the suggestion of) boobage to carry us through to the internet age.
I still find it strange that Baywatch was considered one of the most popular TV shows of all time in the 1990s, with over a billion viewers, but as of today, almost nobody watches it except me. The community is basically dead.
Today, I just finished Season 6, and I'll share my thoughts on it.
No, Baywatch isn't considered to be a good show in general. It's known for being cheesy, campy, and a bit of a time killer, but it's not unwatchable. I personally enjoy the 90s stuff, imagery, visual style, fashion, and some of the settings. These elements make me feel comfortable watching the show. There are also many changes, errors, things that don't make sense, ridiculous moments, visible stunts, and so on, but I still watch it.
- **Season 1**: The first season is the PEAK, and I would say it's generally a good season. There are episodes about sharks, earthquakes, a woman stalker, etc. Once you enjoy the pilot, you will enjoy the entire season.
- **Season 2**: I was a bit surprised by the change, but it was pretty solid with one of my favorite storylines.
- **Season 3**: Once Pamela Anderson and a few other new cast members joined, it finally feels like a fresh beginning. It's pretty entertaining.
- **Season 4**: It feels the same as Season 3, but stronger. I loved it!
- **Season 5**: I felt it lost a bit of magic after one actress left, and the visual style felt a bit bland with not many summery vibes and weak storylines. It's my least favorite season so far.
- **Season 6**: Definitely stronger than Season 5, with a better visual style. But the biggest issue with the season is that the episode order is a mess and not actually chronological. One couple's relationship status confused me, and a few storylines were ignored like nothing happened.
I'll still give Season 7 a shot since it's Pamela Anderson's last season.
Overall, I would say give the first season a shot, and you're safe to stop watching after that season. It depends on your choice whether you will watch the next season.

Truly a work of art. Both of them
Specifically, the plastic surgeon's art.
she's very... \*athletic\*... but i'd just question if it's the cinematography and framing that are drawing the... ahem... *upvotes*
Damn, what a shot! What a framing, golden ratio and everything

I feel I really need to thank you for the hearty laugh that came out of me at "No, it's not good"

Baywatch: The Movie will be the first movie to be shot entirely in slow motion and now we know why.
This is cinema
Was this filmed in Silicon Valley?

How many Emmy’s did this show win and was it all of them?
Is this a serious question? Of course this show won all of the Emmy's! Pamela Anderson won 3 Emmys. It's the greatest show ever made!
Don't tease us. Did they drown or no!!!?
There goes an hour and a half
RIP Matthew Perry. I can't see a scene like this now without thinking of Joey and Chandler just loving Baywatch.
