“Baywatch” – the order of the cult series
When the first episode “Baywatch” aired on NBC in 1989, no one could have guessed the tremendous success it would bring – especially since the first episode flopped and the series only continued because David Hasselhoff produced it himself with his production company. Despite these initial difficulties, eleven seasons with a total of 243 episodes were released over the next 12 years. The first nine seasons of the 198-episode cult series are set in Malibu, while the final two seasons were initially set to continue in Australia as Baywatch Down Under, but were filmed in Hawaii instead.
