Let’s face it, Baywatch may have tried to play itself seriously, but David Hasselhoff’s long-running 90’s lifeguard “drama”, with it’s melodramatic stories, constant continuity gaffs, and scantily clad characters who have more to offer with their vital statistics than their acting, was always good for a laugh.
