Re: The One and Only BAYWATCH Discussion Thread
I got that big Complete series box set that comes with all 11 seasons and both seasons of Nights, but the remasters on Amazon look alot better I will admit. It surprises me they put so much effort into remastering a show alot of people made fun of when it first came out. Rewatching it it is cheesy but I rather like it more now that im older then I did when it was first airing.

If you need to own this on physical media.
For the record, it's still available in HD on Amazon Prime and Hulu. Prime has 9 seasons of the original show. Hulu has the original show plus the 2 Baywatch Hawaii seasons.

I'm sure if you buy that set your probably end up with some scratched discs. Why not put it on bluray and you wouldn't need so many discs. I'll consider it but in addition to song replacements there will likely be edits as well.

$69.99 isn't bad for 9 seasons.

Poor Alexandra Paul. Couldn’t even make it onto the cover art.

I think they put it on DVD because it's cheaper to manufacture and will probably move more units than BD.
If they made this for BD, the MSRP will likely be $99 to $130.
For comparison, VEI released the BD for Stargate SGI, which is 10 seasons and it's selling for $130 right now, not on sale.

Now coming to Blu-ray on May 21st.

I have seen German season sets available on bluray and I assume they have all the original music.

And I used to live on a street called "Am Haselhof" which kind of looks like Hasselhoff.

Re: The One and Only BAYWATCH Discussion Thread
Just discovered this is leaving Amazon Prime video in 4 days. I’m assuming the Prime video license is expiring. Whether they renew who knows. Weird that it was only a 2 year license. Baywatch Hawaii is listed separately as 2 seasons and it’s not expiring yet.
It is still on Hulu.
It appears that it was also added to the ad supported Roku channel.
So for those of you who slacked off on binge watching this, there are a few options left if it does leave Prime. Although the Roku channel with ads is not ideal.

The only issue about Pluto TV is that you can't select any episodes and watch it. You can only watch what they air in each timeslot.

That program on VICE TV about the 90s did an hour on Baywatch recently. Probably not worth a watch unless you want to learn about Toby's addiction problems and how Baywatch transformed plastic surgery.

You mean Hoby? I figured the Dark Side of the 90s was done with its season but I found the Baywatch episode on youtube so I'll watch it.

Re: The One and Only BAYWATCH Discussion Thread
I think there is a place for shows like Baywatch and the Vegas show with James Caan. TV has become very very serious.

Re: The One and Only BAYWATCH Discussion Thread
Looks like a possible Baywatch TV reboot is in development. No creative folks are attached. Fremantle is looking for potential buyers either broadcasters or streamers.
By the way, the 9 season BD set is now down to $69.99
You can still stream it on Prime Video or Hulu if you don't care about owning it.

I've always thought Baywatch could be a fun show for a reboot so I hope it happens.
