[QUOTE="ginnyfan, post: 437169, member: 174"] When I watched Baywatch as a kid in the 90s, it seemed like the best, serious dramatic, most amazing, fabulous show ever. The cast, the setting, the theme song, exciting things happening on the beach.... It was so popular here, just like in most of the world I guess. We even loved Baywatch Nights. So for the longest time my memory of Baywatch was like this, that pure TV fantasy moment in time that just stuck with me. BUT... then I checked it out as an adult and I was shocked at how laughable it was. It was somehow sad to have one's fantasy ruined like that. I couldn't find any redeeming qualities about it. I can't remember what season or part of it I watched at that moment, probably some of the middle with the best known cast, Pam was in it of course. Maybe I would find it better if I watched it now again, after the bubble has burst. Also, for some reason, I always thought it was Jamie Lee Curtis that played Stephanie Holden, despite clearly seeing someone else's name in the titles, every day.... :D I guess it was my own, personal Mandella Effect moment. Then, as an adult, I realized it was someone called Alexandra Paul in the role. That was a let down as well, the memory of a Hollywood actress/royalty like Curtis on Baywatch was much more satisfying.
